Two small pet dogs saved the life of their thirteen-year-old master, Bruno Westerman of St. Paul, when Teddy, a pet black bear, attacked the boy.
    As the bear seized the boy the dogs gave battle and Teddy dropped the child and sought refuge in a near-by tree.
    Carl, the sixteen-year-old brother, finally killed the bear with ten shots from a shotgun and a fusillade from a .22-caliber revolver. The brother retreated to the house to protect the mother, and from an upper window opened fire on Teddy, who had taken to a tree after he wounded Bruno and the dogs gave him battle.
