Love it! I cannot tell you how many times that has happened with our almost 2 year old girl.
In our area, there has recently been a string of day time robberies. I had a knock at my door and all dogs were on alert, as usual. My boxer (Heidi) had figured out how to open the front door (I didn't realize she KNEW - thought the previous time was an accident). She opened the door and the unwelcome visitor was charged by, of all creatures, my beagle. The fool decided to run and got tagged on the calf. Not bad, but enough to make the visitor say "had I known you had dogs, I would not have knocked on your door". I thought that sounded a bit suspicious. Found out a couple days later, the bad guys were caught. Did not appear to be one of the 2 caught, but someone was casing the homes posing as a door-to-door salesman. This individual had no visible ID and made no mention of why he was here. I love my dogs!

Interesting thing happened to me on the way to the theater, whoops wrong story. But yesterday I woke up with a very stiff neck and had to go into into town to see my doctor. While I was in town my wife, who had been away for a couple of days arrived home. I got home and she was in her office on the computer and our two lovable three year old puppies were lying on the floor next to here. I walked in the door wearing a neck brace, and suddenly I had two 70 pound guardians barking at me and not wanting to let me go any further. I took the brace of and and all of a sudden the room was quiet and tails stubs were wagging. I spoke to them and they rushed me like they always do. It made me feel good that even though I was there owner, the fact that they did not recognize me put them on alert. Made my wife feel good also.
BOXERS ALWAYS!
