Every time I see word "doge" I think of Inspector Clouseau in the German inn talking about the owner's dog, he leans forward with his hand out to pat the dog, and says "Nice doggy", pronounced like "dough-geh".
Clouseau (seeing dog): Does your dog bite?
Innkeeper: No.
Clouseau: Nice doggy.
Dog: (bites Clouseau's hand)
Clouseau: I thought you said your dog does not bite!
Innkeeper: That is not my dog.
