Etymology
The term 'doggier' derives from the word 'doggy', which itself is a diminutive or affectionate form of 'dog'. The origin of 'dog' can be traced back to the Old English word 'docga', a term used to describe a specific breed of dog, though the exact breed is still debated by etymologists. Over time, 'dog' has evolved into the general term for all domesticated canines. The creation of the term 'doggy' likely occurred in the 19th century as language users sought a softer and more affectionate way to refer to dogs. From 'doggy', the comparative form 'doggier' emerged to allow for comparisons when describing the qualities or behaviors associated with dogs. As language continues to evolve, these affectionate terms reflect the growing bond between humans and their canine companions.
