Garfield: The Movie[edit]

Dont forget that this song was also in above movie. So who let the dog out


There is also a song called "Who Let The Hogs Out" by the Electric Amish http://www.electricamish.com/ which has been played on the Bob and Tom show. I don't see it on their discography at present. 209.43.9.71 04:50, 20 November 2006 (UTC)Michael Z. Williamson[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Wholetthedogsout.jpg[edit]

Image:Wholetthedogsout.jpg is being used on this article.

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

Mitt Romney[edit]

This probably isn't notable enough, but if anyone's interested, Mitt Romney apparently thinks this is a hip and trendy song. http://embeds.blogs.foxnews.com/2008/01/21/romney-who-let-the-dogs-out/ Reminds me of that McDonalds ad where they used the phrase "I'd hit it" referring to a cheeseburger, not realizing that the phrase means "I'd have sex with it." 153.42.168.174 (talk) 19:09, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lyrics[edit]

What is the song actually about? 99.247.1.157 (talk) 00:03, 19 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"Who Let the Dogs Out" was also in "Men in Black II". Will Smith returns to the car, where he left his alien partner, a talking dog (a Pug). He discovers the dog singing/barking along with this song. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.92.213.214 (talk) 00:03, 10 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Documentary tracing back the origin of the song[edit]

Noting in passing that there is a documentary entitled Who Let the Dogs Out wherein a person researched the origins of this song.[1] Interestingly (for navel-gazing purposes), his research began when he tried to find information to add the surname of a person referred to as "Keith" to the Wikipedia article about this song. Risker (talk) 03:08, 1 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I've added this report as an external link. Some of it could probably be incorporated into the article, but I don't have time at the moment. Ghmyrtle (talk) 12:58, 2 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Also, an episode of the podcast “99 percent invisible” covers the story: https://99percentinvisible.org/episode/whomst-among-us-let-the-dogs-out/ //Knuckles (talk) 06:35, 26 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ummm, which is already added as an external link in the article.. saw that just after posting my comment, sorry. Knuckles (talk) 06:38, 26 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Who Let the Dogs Out (song) → Who Let the Dogs Out – I don't know exactly why this is not at the base name, but it is clearly the primary topic.[2] (CC) Tbhotch™ 04:47, 5 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Feminist song[edit]

Besides the reference that was removed without explanation in this edit, with an invitation to discuss this on the talk page (so wait, why do I have to start the discussion when sourced information is being removed together with the source?), also at least one other of the already established references in this article calls it feminist. I am putting that categorization and text back in, as it is not a single source this relies on anymore. Why would we remove the reference from that quote? --denny vrandečić (talk) 21:56, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Why do you think it is necessary, or helpful to readers, to insert that claim in the opening sentence of the article - rather than referring to the claim, in a more nuanced and balanced way, in the body of the text? It is not open to dispute that it is a "song". It is open to argument whether it can neutrally be called "a feminist song against catcalling", simply because that is one claim made for it. The song has a very complicated origin and history, and it does not give the correct balance to be too specific about its meaning in the very first sentence of the article.
