here's what we do,
A: don't open the door if you see it in advance, however our house is built where other than our electric doorbell we can't see who's at the door, peephole is old and foggy.
B: "oh no thanks we're not interested" often filled with a "no dangit [dogs name] stop barking" / "get back" then close the door because the dog is trying to get out
