Joie Calio and Michael Gurley wrote "Dog", and dada put it on Puzzle, the American band's first album, released by I.R.S. Records in August 1992, with Ken Scott producing the track.
Puzzle is also where "Dizz Knee Land", the band's hit, came from, and the album climbed to 111 on the Billboard 200. Reviewers heard sunny, radio-friendly harmonies wrapped around a doubtful view of the Southern California dream, all Los Angeles imagery and a West Coast postmodern streak. It came back as an expanded reissue on Blue Cave Records in 2004, and again in 2025 as a Record Store Day vinyl run limited to 2,000 copies.
