A four-year-old boy is safe after a bear showed up in his backyard last week.

Gavin Grant was playing in his backyard in Sherman, Connecticut when the bear wondered out of the nearby forest. Luckily for Gavin, the family dog Jake was nearby - and chased the bear away.

Gavin's dad Gregory said, "Our son was not attacked, but we feel having our dog around protected him from a potential incident."
