She protec: Dog tries to save Leonardo DiCaprio from bear attack
Watch Next

Spoiler alert: Leonardo DiCaprio's character gets brutally attacked by a bear in the 2015 Oscar-winning Best Picture The Revenant.

Well, this bulldog named Khaleesi was recently watching along with her human when the big scene came on. And she tried her very best to protect poor Leo. Despite the bear's size. And the fact that it's on a TV.

We definitely think she helped Leo, at least a little. It's the thought that counts.
