A Colorado homeowner captured an unlikely photo earlier this week\u2014a large black bear lounging in his neighbor\u2019s backyard just feet away from the neighbors\u2019 pet dog. In the photo, the two appear to be hanging out peacefully. In reality, Lucas Eads, who took the photo, says the dog (Sully) was barking at the bear, but the bear was way too relaxed to care much.<\/p>\n

However, this bear seems to be getting a little too comfortable hanging out in backyards. In the end, Eads told local news<\/a> that the bear calmly walked away down the sidewalk, leaving Sully in peace (and also in one piece, thankfully).<\/p>\n See a wild bear hanging out with a family\u2019s dog in a Colorado backyard below.<\/p>\n Header stock image by AwakenedEye\/Getty Images<\/p>\n Best Bear (and Mountain Lion) Sprays<\/p>\n
