I knew a guy who got one once, but he didn't socialize or control it properly, I think they had to find it another home. They are truly working dogs who need a "job" to do.

i guess my concern would be that 'yourself', plus 2 dogs, one overly aggressive, is going to guarantee a fight, as the bear won't see itself as being able to safely 'move away'
if that bear has cubs, you're fucked
but i am thinking in terms of transit, mild populated camping.. not backwoods living
