I've seen pretty a dump dog understand elevators well enough to run down the stairs to follow someone that had just gotten into an elevator.

They can probably hear much more clearly than we can that it’s a box moving around on rails in a giant echo tube.

Dogs do have a concept of gravity, they can feel the movement of the floor.

Sidenote, but most elevators don't use a rail to move (although might use one for stability plus something to apply emergency brakes against), it's usually wires lifting them
