Thanks for playing my game, I think that i understand the problem with the dogs, I've just uploaded a new version, in this one if you start listen the dogs and you don't move for a few seconds you will be killed if you don't run away.
When you enter into the first door, you will be in the mansion garden, there is a second door at the right, I ajusted some sounds so you can listen better the door sound to enter the mansion.
Please consider giving the game another try.
If you got stuck i published a walkthrought on youtube.
