Dogs are dogs. I’m familiar with many dogs. I’m familiar with many dogs that are Shepherd breeds that don’t flip out when someone rings the door bell. The dog only knows about doorbells because of how humans react to it. If you react calmly, and sit down for a second, and then walk to the door calmly and open it calmly, and you don’t do loud sing-song greetings with everybody making a bunch of noise, if you’re not trying to restrain the dog or block the dog from running out the door, or panicking that someone is there, then the dog will be calm too. It’s not rocket science.
You must not be familiar with Shepherd breeds.
