Good fences might make good neighbors, but in this case, a dog and a doorbell made them even better. While most pups bark from behind the fence, one polite pup has learned that when you’re a regular guest, you ring first. What started as a friendly visit turned into a full-blown tradition, and the video of the Labrador‘s daily doorbell dash is as wholesome as it gets.
Instagram video shows how a Labrador gets excited to visit her neighbor everyday
The Instagram video begins with Emmy’s owner narrating the backstory. For the past 18 months, Emmy has made it a daily ritual to visit her neighbor, Linda Rose. What began as a few casual drop-ins has blossomed into a cherished routine, so much so that Linda Rose installed a custom doorbell just for Emmy. The bell is positioned at the pup’s height, and she has even been trained to ring it herself.
As the clip rolls, Emmy is seen wearing purple boots on her front paws. Her owner explains that the boots help prevent her from accidentally scratching Linda Rose’s door in her enthusiasm. “Emmy, are you ready for the highlight of your day?” he asks. With a simple command — “Go see Linda Rose!” — Emmy takes off, trotting across the street with purpose and excitement.
The video then shows her arrive at the house, and the Labrador immediately presses the dog-level doorbell three times. Her joy is unmistakable, and according to her owner, Emmy’s confident tail wags likely mean Linda Rose is home. A moment later, the door opens and the pooch eagerly rushes inside, greeted with a voice in the background that sounds like Linda Rose happily welcoming her furry visitor.
Emmy seems to know exactly which door leads to love. As one commenter put it, “Linda Rose must be such a wonderful lady. Dogs know best.” Another marveled, “The fact that Linda Rose installed a doorbell just for Emmy!” Some viewers were eager to see the story from the other side of the door, with one saying, “We need to see the perspective of Linda Rose.” But perhaps the most popular sentiment came from a fan who wrote, “I’ve said it before. Emmy is Linda Rose’s dog. You just pay the bills.”
