Family discover their pet dog is a black bear

Recommended Posts

A Chinese family recently discovered that the "dog" they adopted in 2016 is actually a black bear.

Su Yun bought what she thought to be a Tibetan mastiff puppy two years ago and brought it home with her family in Kunming city, Yunnan province, after a holiday vacation, according to a report by Chinanews.com via Independent.

The "puppy" surprised Yun's family with its appetite. Yun said the animal could down a box of fruits and two buckets of noodles every day.

Fruits and noodles, because that's exactly what a dog eats.

This has all the earmarks of the "family adopts Mexican dog that turns out to be a rat" urban legend.

I think they knew it was most likely illegal to keep a black bear.  "I thought it was a dog?"  to keep from going to jail or a fine.

Well mine only does item one.  She refuses to fetch anything that isn't a squirrel or similar "critter".  I did have a very stocky and furry mixed cocker years ago.  We were at a rest stop somewhere and a guy asked why we had a black bear on a leash.  She went woof and fetched so she definitely was a dog.

And people are seeing Bigfoot everywhere while they are not able to identify a bear from a dog...

....And in more recent news, aliens admit to secretly lobotomizing a random local family. Coincidence? I think not!
