Must’ve been a frightening experience
Texts/calls don’t set the dogs off, which is why I don’t ring the doorbell/knock
Nice to warn the dogs you’re about to waltz in though
as if pets won’t know you’re on your way when you’re 5 blocks away
Hey man, Dogs can get arrival notifications when they start pitching in for rent
coming in will still set the dogs off so what’s the difference
The dogs are the doorbell!
I used to sneak up to one friends house and quietly scratch the door. Their dogs at the time used to love it. If I tried now the new dogs would eat me, door & all.
But if no-one knocks or ring the bell then the dogs won’t be conditioned to start barking.
What kind of conditioning do dogs get to perceive the doorbell as a threat anyway?
Seems like a dog should be able to handle things like doorbells and people. These are somewhat common things.
Bingo!
