That is what Ripley does once the "intruder" is in the house. In fact that is a behavior that he has just recently started and reminds me so much of my RB poodle Ashley. She just couldn't go to the door with an empty mouth!

I found out shortly after Ripley came to live with us that in his former home (wherever that was) they must have had a doorbell. We don't have one - just a knocker. One night while watching TV someone on the program rang the bell. Ripley looked over at my front door and barked. Of course Bella didn't even look up because she probably didn't realize what happens after a doorbell rings - visitors!
