"
Who Let the Dogs Out?" is a song performed by
Bahamian group
Baha Men, released as a single on 26 July 2000. Originally written by
Anslem Douglas (titled "Doggie") for the
Trinidad and Tobago Carnival season of 1998, it was covered by producer
Jonathan King under the name Fat Jakk and his Pack of Pets. He brought the song to the attention of his friend
Steve Greenberg, who then had the Baha Men cover the song. The song became the band's first hit in the United Kingdom and the United States, and it gained popularity after
Rugrats in Paris: The Movie and its soundtrack album.
