others. >> you need to recognize it and address the issue. because it will escalate. touch your dog all over his body so he always knows that he's desensitized to kids and anybody touching him. >> reporter: josh says so far the training is working for bristow. he's calmer and less aggressive, on track to becoming boy's best friend. >> i would like to see them be best friends. as zander grows up. >> dog experts say it's critical to exercise your dog and to pay attention to their signals. they say in every situation involving a dog attack, there were always warning signs beforehand. vicky nguyen, bay area news. >> good advice, thanks. it started with a peanut butter sandwich and ended with a trashed car. 17-year-old ben story of larkspur, colorado, woke up to found his toyota missing from its usual spot. the thief, a black bear. we have the story. >> there was a peanut butter sandwich in the back seat. >> i guess he smelled it.
