Dog Escapes His Hotel, Makes an Hour-and-a-Half Trek Home to Ring His Doorbell – Opinion

Ever wanted to go on vacation again? Recently, Kansas dogs had this desire.

Inside Edition reported that Lenexa residents Sarah and Jeremy Hensen conceived a 5-day, his-and-her week at Las Vegas.

But their planning would involve more than accommodations for themselves — the pair have a dog, Dexter.

The mutt wouldn’t be able to make the trip to Nevada, so the couple lined up a doggy daycare getaway. Dexter would be living it up some two miles from the family’s home.

Jeremy, Sarah and their flight to the destination was smooth. Everything went well up until day 3. Dexter was suffering from homesickness by that time, it seems.

And the Hensens’ dog is no dummy. As Jeremy told Inside Edition, “He’s very smart, and that intelligence can get him into trouble sometime.”

Intelligent, indeed: The canine’s craftiness allowed him to escape his hotel. According to Jeremy, Dexter would’ve had to scale a six-foot fence in order to make it out.

There, the pet made his way back from vacation. Inside Edition describes his return.

Dexter made an immediate right from the kennel to find his way back home. He then took a left at busy 87th Street, making a left. He then took a right onto Rose Hill to enter the residential community. Ninety minutes…later, the lonesome Dexter made it…

The next thing that happened was a combination of a dog, a bell and an alarm clock.

Sarah and Jeremy were enjoying a vacation in Las Vegas when Sarah heard that Ring had rung their doorbell.

They went online to find that it wasn’t Jehovah’s Witnesses. It wasn’t the Girl Scouts, Avon calling. Instead, a family member with four legs was at their doorstep and calling. The dog was waiting for permission to come in on their porch.

This entire thing was recorded on video.

Sarah and Jeremy talked with Dexter through the intercom as they contacted Dexter at the kennel. Dexter was picked up by someone from daycare. Dexter was forced to stay two additional days in vacation.

Inside Edition asked Jeremy if he was shocked by the behavior of his dog.

“Honestly, no,” he said.

Dogs do the darnedest things, and Dexter isn’t the only one to have mastered the ringing of a bell:

He’s not the only one who returns home from work at night to voice his opinion:

A minimum of one dog needs a doorbell in order to call for help. out:

Still, a 90-minute, multiple-turn trip home after an escape from assisted living…punctuated by a doorbell ding…is something special.

Dexter, a great dog.
