pavlov checks into the chat to explain why bells and dog reactions are a thing...
Every single interaction my dog has ever experienced with someone coming to the door has been positive, so Pavlov doesn't explain why my dog (and most all dogs) go Murder-Mode when someone is at the door.

Nah. You actually need to be trained. It will take. That’s giving up.

I had a 3/4 English Mastiff and a 1/4 Cur. Bred to be a hog dog, or something like that. frick the cur. She barked at everything, but would let children climb on her and sleep on her without a care in the world. She was 110lbs of love and that quarter cur ruined her ability to remain quiet. Didn't matter her level of training. The mastiff listened. The cur didn't. Great dog besides her mouth

Ah...you need to read up on the whole Pavlov thing...it's not about what sort of response it's about the trigger to the response

Again. As an owner. YOU need to be trained.
My dog will look to me in an any social situation if he can do this or that. He stands by me no matter what is going on. I put in hours and hours. He is amazing.

The dog is trained. I say "lay down" and she stops whatever she's doing, even if already laying down, and goes to her kennel. Yeah I've seen all the Ceasar Milan's. I have owned many a dog. I'm not a dog noob.

Maybe you are a yankee that doesn't know what this means.

It's not a pavlov's dog situation. The dogs are in some cases reacting to a noise that they have never heard before (doorbell) from the tv. Or perhaps they have heard a doorbell noise from the tv alone, but can not associate it with a visitor. It would be like pavlov ringing the bell for the first time and the dogs salivate.
