A sweet and intelligent dog rang the doorbell to get back inside after leaving the yard.

As every parent knows, children will push their limits and boundaries. They want to know how much they can get away with before you react and put a stop to their fun. Those youngsters want to learn how much they can do before upsetting you and experiencing negative consequences.

Children are not the only creatures on Earth who like to push and then go over their boundaries. Animals want to find out where their limit is as well. Every pet owner understands that most animals sometimes push and stretch your patience. How much can they do before their owner limits play time or refuses to give a special treat?

A clip posted on YouTube shows a precious pup that apparently pushed and then physically went over its limits. The animal in the clip actually leaped over a fence, leaving its yard. Maybe the curious, adventurous and mischievous canine thought it heard a squirrel or the pesky neighborhood cat.

Regardless of why the dog decided to jump the fence and leave the yard, after about 15 minutes, the animal knew it needed to get back to its home. But how was it going to get back? The canine probably could have hopped back over the fence that it had previously jumped over or found another way back home.

The video shows and accompanying text in the clip explains how the animal found its way back inside its home. The two-year-old Bernese pup came to the front door and rang the doorbell, of course. The text mentions that the animal had apparently watched others gain entry into the house by ringing the doorbell and thought it was worth a shot.

The animal was right and was welcomed back home with an enthusiastic greeting!
