Finwitch:

I wouldn't be surprised if Sirius *could* open the door. It's not like
it was *locked* and um - I can tell you that the dog my family used to
have certainly knew how to open unlocked doors. Really, all they have
to do is jump against the handle and a big dog not even that.

Also, there might be a catflap in some doors-- Yes, there's plenty of
ways Sirius could cross doors. The gates were watching human Black,
not a dog... and Sirius *certainly* knew several secret passages - all
seven on the map leading out of Hogwarts for instance. How was it,
Filch knew four, one lead to Honeydukes, one to the Shack and one was
caved in...
