Filter search syntax ?

I wish to search for a word enclosed by quotation marks. For example
the string "dog". The quotation marks are part of the string for which I am searching.

Tried ""dog"". This does not work. I still get any dog within the text, whether enclosed by quotation marks or not. How do I set this up?
Thanks!

you need to use backslash

\"dog\"

it works everywhere - search service, filter editor, quck filter.

or
