I'm not entirely sure what 'dog ear in door on a christmas story' specifically means. It could be a very random or creative description. Maybe it's about a dog's ear being somehow related to a door in the context of a Christmas story, like perhaps a dog is peeking through a door with its ear showing during a Christmas event.
One simple idea is to create a wreath with a Christmas story theme. You can use fake holly, berries, and a ribbon. Then, attach small cut - outs of characters from a favorite Christmas story, like Santa from 'The Night Before Christmas'.
You can paint a scene from a Christmas story directly on the door. If it's the story of the Nativity, paint a simple manger scene. Use stencils if you're not confident in your free - hand painting skills. For a more 3D effect, add some small figurines to the painted scene, like little plastic sheep or angels. Also, consider using a large piece of fabric as a door covering. Choose a fabric with a pattern that relates to the Christmas story, like a fabric with Santa Claus if your story involves him.
Well, the door in the story could represent hope or opportunity. Maybe it's the entrance to a place of joy and celebration during Christmas. Or it could simply be a physical element that adds to the setting and atmosphere of the narrative.
Use Christmas lights around the door frame. They create a warm and inviting atmosphere. You could also attach some small Christmas ornaments, like little bells or shiny baubles. In some Christmas stories, the twinkling lights on the door are a sign of the joy and celebration inside the house.
I'm not sure specifically what that particular 'woman stuck in dog door story' is about. Maybe she was trying to do something silly like fit through the dog door for a bet or while playing with a pet, and then got stuck there embarrassingly.
The specific scene where the mom pulls the ear is when the main character gets into trouble for something at home. It's a classic moment of discipline and shows the mom's frustration.
