Interesting.

I know from what you've said previously that you're not exactly enamored with the family dog, and no doubt as a result (s)he feels no bond with you.

Here's the thing. If I leave Dale alone in the house, he howls until I return or he gets bored (that's after about 45 minutes.) But he will rest in the kitchen for hours on end perfectly content when I'm at home, even if I'm upstairs. Because you're emotionally absent from the dog's life, once everyone else is out of the house, (s)he's essentially alone. Maybe you need to make friends with the pup. :-)

...Y'know, Tigger...

Battering rams are a real efficient way of opening the door to my house, but I usually try using my key first.
