The magnet in the knocker has "welded" to the door and seems impossible to remove. I have to paint the door so if the paint is damaged its not a problem.
Sand it & repaint
You would need to replace the primer that is scratched off and then paint.
As stated above. Make sure you paint with a formula that is for metal door. Is this interior or exterior? Also, ask for advice regarding this specific problem. Check with Sherwin Williams. If it isn't very high up you might want to add a door kick plate which will cover 6" or 8" unless you have one custom made.
It is almost impossible to keep the paint from scratching from your dogs. I would sand down the area as smooth as possible and reapply the paint.
