Chika’s owner, Robert Fox, was astonished by his dog’s new skill. He told local news outlets he had no idea Chika knew how to ring the doorbell. “I was shocked,” he said. “I didn’t know she could do that.” Fox believes Chika observed family members using the doorbell and decided to try it herself.
This isn’t the first time a dog has used a doorbell. In 2018, a dog named Marshall made headlines for ringing a neighbor’s doorbell after getting lost when his owner accidentally left the gate open.
