In Evans Creek, Washington, Amanda and her friend Dylan tried rescuing Bear, a lost puppy, with food and treats, but he refused to approach. Returning the next day, Amanda tried a bold idea—she lay down and pretended to be injured. Hours later, the frightened dog’s curiosity overcame his fear, leading to a heartwarming rescue.

In an attempt to save the puppy, Amanda and her buddy Dylan made the decision to take him to an animal hospital. Treats were their attempt to entice Bear, but they were unsuccessful. The dog was still too wary to come near humans.

Amanda made the decision to pursue a slightly different strategy. She pretended to be dead while curled up in a fetal position. And before long, Bear appeared to personify the spirit of assistance. After smelling at Amanda for twenty minutes, he moved away after losing interest. Amanda persisted nonetheless. He returned after one hour. He did nothing but sit next to Amanda this time.
