The fact that the dogs actually have proper "dog safety belts" is cool (the small dog is connected to the big dogs vest. The big dogs vest is clipped into the carriage at two points).

From my understanding, black bears are fairly skittish and aren't huge fans of confrontation. Don't get one mad though, because then shit gets real. They can run faster than you and they can climb trees. Don't even play that game.

When I was a young Jedoc, I got sent to forestry camp by the local volunteer fire department. The dude teaching wildlife safety had exactly one joke, repeated here in its entirety:
"These mountains contain a whole lot of black bears and a few grizzly bears. You can scare off black bears by wearing small bells that jingle when you walk, and if you accidentally corner one you can run it off with pepper spray. You can tell whether you're in black bear territory or grizzly bear territory by watching out for scat. Black bear scat is usually found at the base of trees and resembles a larger version of dog poop. Grizzy scat is similar, but it often smells like pepper spray and contains small bells."

I was told a joke once that I can't remember properly, but it was about fishing somewhere in the vast and beautiful American wilderness, and a casual observer asking the fisherman about their equipment. There were questions about the tackle, the reel, the fisherman's clothes, and finally the what the hell kind of fish does he need the .45 tucked in his waistband for?!? It ended something like "the gear's for catching fish, and the .45 is for fending off any grizzly's attracted to the smell of the fish cooking on the campfire".

Knowing Justin and his social anxiety, he must have been pretty drunk
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
"Oh, oh god, I'm so sorry I knocked that over I was just looking for the ice machine. Is it on this floor?"
This is equal parts adorable and terrifying.

Bears are more afraid of you than you are of them, most times.
Bear attacks usually happen because they are protecting their young.
Bears will usually run off if they hear you coming and avoid confrontation.
They are not murder factories.
They are omnivores, and are just as happy chomping on berries and moths as they are hunting fish or what have you.
Nobody is going to smash through a glass door. That's not a thing.
The bear in that gif is just curious to see a dog, maybe never seen one before. Probably would run away if you shouted at it.
Yes they are wild animals, yes they are strong. But you're more likely to be killed by a horse than mauled by a bear.
Heres a real predator you should be afraid of:
