This dog needs some training it sounds like. Good luck with that, but really, put a hook beside all the doors and hang a leash there. Clip it on and answer the door. Problem solved (for the time being).
I agree with this especially if the door open right out to a street that has heavy traffic. I knew of a woman that lost her dog this way, someone opened the door and the dog ran out got hit by a car.
