Bark mode: ON

Dog owners are all too familiar with the frenzied reaction some pups exhibit when someone knocks on the door or rings the doorbell. Yet, the specific trigger for their excitement remains a mystery. Is it the sound of the knock, the doorbell, or perhaps the approaching footsteps?

The Carroll County Clinic seems to share the sentiment that the inventor of the doorbell likely did not own a dog. While the distinction between a bell and a knock may not be entirely clear, the sign adds a humorous touch to the canine behavior that puzzles many. It’s a playful nod to the quirks of our furry friends.
