When Amanda heard about Bear, an abandoned dog in the mountains of Evan’s Creek, she immediately decided to intervene.
Together with her friend Dylan, they set out to locate the lonely dog.
For over an hour, they tried to lure Bear with food and treats, but unfortunately…
The next day when they returned, they saw Bear in the same spot. Their attempts to lure him closer and help him still failed.
That’s when the girls came up with a very creative idea, to say the least.
They decided that Amanda would lie on the ground “playing dead” and pretend she needed help.
As planned: the next day, Amanda lay on the ground where they suspected Bear was.
And what happened two hours later warmed the hearts of thousands of animal lovers.
