Bears and dogs(or any canine) are in the same classification up to 'Order', where bears split off as Ursidae and dogs become Canidae for the family.

So bears and dogs are both:

Kingdom:Animalia

Phylum: Chordata

Class: Mammallia

Order: Carnivora

And that's all they have in common.

Are dogs related to bears?

Dogs & bears are in the same order, Carnivora, but different families (dog is Canidae, bear is Ursidae). According to this classification dogs & bears are no more related to each other than each is to cats (order Carnivora, family Felidae). Some taxonomists classify creatures into intermediate classifications, such as "suborders" & "suprafamilies" & such. According to some, the order Carnivora contains the suborder Feliformia (cat-like) & Caniformia. Suborder Caniformia contains the family Canidae & the infraorder Arctoidae. Infraorder Arctoide contains the superfamily Ursoidae, which contains the family Ursidae (bears) & the extinct bear-like family Hemicyonidae. All of this is trying to say that bears & dogs are more closely related to each other than to cats, but not quite in the same family.
