In my opinion, the caster must designate someone as a foe during/prior to the casting in order for the animal to attack it. After all, if you had a summoned monster out, and then a Doppleganger comes out disguised as a friend of yours, does the summoned monster automatically attack the Doppleganger? Of course not, unless the caster had reason to believe that this guy would be an enemy.
So unless the caster knew that there were enemies on the other side of the door (ignoring the fact that you need Line of Effect), then it wouldn't do anything. If the caster knew that there were enemies, it would attack those known to the caster.
The spell can only act upon the caster's knowledge- no new knowledge can be brought about by the casting of the spell. After all, it's a Conjuration spell, not a Divination spell.
