Overview

• Security footage shared on TikTok shows Scout, a 5-pound Pomeranian, rushing a black bear out the door in seconds.
• The clip, first posted on August 4, has about 6.4 million views, with comments widely praising the tiny dog’s bravery.
• Owner Kayla Kleine says the bear had been in the kitchen eating dog food after it entered through an open door on a hot day.
• She grabbed bear spray but says the animal had already fled over the backyard fence, and no injuries were reported.
• Kleine now keeps doors closed on hot days thanks to a new air-conditioning unit, and she notes Scout has become more protective during her pregnancy.
