The owners of the dog know that their pets become alert when they see something. After this they impatiently try to get to that place. When door is closed they stare out of the window and bark, asking owner to let them run to the particular place that is of interest to them.
Christy the West Highland White Terrier from Florida also saw something in the yard. The dog approaches the back door and looks at something. It should be noted that the family has just moved to a new house and there can be much to explore at new place for the dog. However, the dog does not run to explore. It saw something different and it runs there to enjoy it as soon as possible!
