YES, please god oh yes. :( Also doorbells in TV ads. I have 3 dogs and it always sets them off. I don’t even know how the fuck they know what a doorbell is because almost no one uses ours, lol.
I think dogs experience bells as a kind of sonic assault and will naturally react to them even when they don’t yet associate the sound with anything. Also, bells tend to be very unexpected from a dog perspective and surprises are a great reason for barking.
