"Doggy Dogg World" is the third and final single from American rapper Snoop Doggy Dogg's debut album, Doggystyle (1993). It is the first European-only release with an American video TV-play. It features 1970s-era classic R&B and soul group The Dramatics, with guest rap verses from Kurupt and Daz Dillinger (Tha Dogg Pound).

The song samples Richard "Dimples" Fields' "If It Ain't One Thing, It's Another" from his 1982 album Mr. Look So Good, and its title is a reference to a common eggcorn of the phrase "Dog-Eat-Dog World." The Dramatics featured on the song at Snoop Dogg's request after he contacted Dramatics leader L.J. Reynolds through their longtime bassist Tony Green, who was in Death Row's circle.[2]
