lol...I would venture to say yes. Unless it was the guy up on the pressure ridge with the swarovskis that sees it first
I have one example from a guy who hunted grizz with us 5 years ago. The year prior he was on a polar bear hunt (not with us). Czech guy that always brought a Nalgene bottle of pear schnapps or something like that....95%alc. After camp got set up he asked the guide and helper if they'd like a drink. They did. One guy drank the top half and the other the bottom. Needless to say, out like a light. The bear came through the tent and broke the clients nose. He woke up and shot the bear 3 times with a 300wmag....Blaser autoloader. The guides woke up to the shots and in his broken english "there was some confusion".
So no....dogs don't always work. I still sleep with my rifle on safe.
