the dog. (dance) A sixties dance form.
With feet slightly apart, crouch down with arms bent and fists clenched. Move body and arms backward and forward with the beat. Jerk clenched fists over shoulders alternately similar to Hitch Hike movement and jump to the left or right. The dance step was scandalous at the time it was popular and seems quaintly tame today when Missy Elliot raps about “working it.”
