Dog song for kids — "I'm a Dog!" cover art by Snuggle Bunch

I’m a Dog!

About This Song

“I’m a Dog!” captures that pure, unfiltered joy of pretending to be a puppy! Complete with woofing, being aloof, and dropping bars in the booth. It’s silly, it’s loud, and it’s exactly as chaotic as the living room on a Saturday morning.

This high-energy family hip hop track from Snuggle Bunch is packed with tail-wagging fun and a chorus that toddlers and preschoolers will want to bark along to on repeat. Fair warning: your kid may start woofing at dinner.

If your little one loved this, check out Little Bird!, Ducky! (Quack Quack Quack), and It’s a Stick! for more fun Snuggle Bunch animal and nature songs!

Woof woof
I’m a dog I’m a dog
Woof woof
Woof woof woof
I’m a dog (woof woof)
I’m a dog

Woof
I’m a dog I’m a dog
Woof woof woof
I’m a dog (woof woof woof)
Woof!
I’m a dog I’m a dog
I’m a dog dog dog
And I woof!
Cause a dog goes woof
I’m a dog and I go
Woof woof woof
I’m a dog and I go
Woof woof woof!
(Woof woof)

Sometimes I woof
Sometimes I am aloof
I got two big tooth
To go woof in the booth
Im a sleuth for the truth
And my mom’s name is Ruth
It’s uncouth to not woof in the booth

Woof woof!

I’m a dog I’m a dog
Woof woof woof
I’m a dog (woof woof)
I’m a dog I’m a dog (woof woof)
I’m a dog dog dog
And I (woof woof)
Cause a dog goes
Woof woof woof woof woof woof
I’m a dog and I go (woof woof woof)
I’m a dog and I go (woof woof woof)
I’m a dog
I’m a dog!

I’m a dog!

Woof woof
I’m a dog I’m a dog
Woof woof woof woof
I’m a dog
I’m a dog I’m a dog
Woof woof
I’m a dog dog dog
And I (woof)
Cause a dog goes
(Woof woof woof)
I’m a dog and I go woof woof woof
I’m a dog and I go woof woof
Woof woof woof

Sometimes I woof
Sometimes I am aloof
I got two big tooth
To go woof in the booth
Im a sleuth for the truth
And my mom’s name is Ruth
It’s uncouth to not woof in the booth
Woof woof woof!

I’m a dog I’m a dog
Woof woof woof woof woof
I’m a dog (woof woof woof woof)
I’m a dog I’m a dog
I’m a dog dog dog
And I woof
Cause a dog goes (woof woof woof)
I’m a dog and I go (woof woof woof)
I’m a dog and I go (woof woof)
I’m a dog! I’m a dog!
Woof!

  • Inside Voices (Let’s Keep It Down)

    You know that moment when your kid has exactly one volume setting (and it’s too loud?) When baby brother just nodded off, the teacher’s mid-sentence, and your child picks right now to test the acoustics. “Inside Voices (Let’s Keep It Down)” is for every parent who’s ever done the frantic whisper-shush while their kid stares back like you’re the unreasonable one.

  • THREEnager!

    They want it. They need it. They must have it right now! You hand it over and…nope, they don’t want it anymore, it’s on the floor. Welcome to three. “THREEnager!” is told from the kid’s perspective — they make a fair point: they’ve only been on this planet for three short years, everything is a challenge. That doesn’t make the “why why why” phase any easier to survive, but at least now it has a beat!

  • You’re a Big Man!

    An experimental jazz track sampling and remixing an improvised acapella recording, incorporating horns and a live jazzy feel to a lighthearted melody about my son growing up. “You’re a Big Man!” started as a simple voice memo ( a proud dad moment caught on tape ) and evolved into a horn-driven, jazz-flavored celebration of watching your little one hit those big milestones.

  • I’m a Little Teapot!

    Your kids already know the words. They’ve been doing the handle-and-spout dance since daycare. So we took “I’m a Little Teapot” and flipped it to a hip hop bop it’s been waiting for. We kept the classic verses and added on our spin about heating up water for mommies and daddies, and how a fresh cup of tea helps us parents! Let’s be real, sometimes a teapot song is for the grown-ups too.

  • Little Man Dance

    A new experimental jazz tune with Jazz Animals, inspired entirely by this adorable squat dance my one year old does whenever he hears a song he likes! A big fan of the sound of a trumpet, this one takes a similar sample-based approach to You’re a Big Man!, but with a slightly more laid-back vibe.
