that song isn't about actual dogs, it's using dogs as slang for ugly women

good news!!!

"Who Let The Dogs Out" is a cover of the 1998 song "Doggie" (or "Dogie") by Trinidadian calypso/soca/Junkanoo artist Anslem Douglas.[7] Douglas himself has said that the song has nothing to do with dogs and actually has a feminist theme critical of men who catcall women.[8] In an interview that was published on his website, he said:

"It's a man-bashing song. I'll tell you why. The lyric of the song says, 'The party was nice, the party was pumpin'.' When I said the word 'party' I was being metaphorical. It really means things were going great. The 'Yippie-Yi-Yo,' that's everybody's happy, right? 'And everybody was having a ball.' Life was going great. 'Until the men start the name-callin' / And then the girls respond to the call.' So the men started calling the women 'skank' and 'skettel,' every dirty word you can think of. The men started the name-calling and then the girls respond to the call. And then a woman shouts out, 'Who let the dogs out?' And we start calling men dogs. It was really a man-bashing song."[9]

I beefed that link but you get the idea

this is a common assumption but it's actually almost the exact opposite of the intent. the "dogs" are men who disrespect women by catcalling and such.

oh, sniped by a more thorough explanation

try reading the lyrics sometime, it works wonders
