Doggy dog is an example of an eggcorn in linguistics (“a misheard word or phrase”). The original saying (dog-eat-dog) is misheard or spoken so quickly that it sounds like something else. TI was inspired by this linguistic phenomenon and created a series of style frames that tell the story of Bob the Dog, and his fantasies of conquering a suspiciously dragon-shaped shadow as his cool knight alter ego, “Sir Robert”.
