Merriam-Webster tweeted about doggos, so people sent a flood of personal pooch photos back
Dogs are good.
Merriam-Webster got plenty of them when they tweeted the word "doggos," which is one of the words the dictionary is watching — but hasn't yet made the criteria for entry.
The classical definition of doggo originates from late-19th century slang. It means to be in hiding, as to "lie doggo," as per a Time article from 1886 the dictionary cited in its blog post.
However, the dictionary acknowledged the word's meteoric rise over the past year or so, which is chiefly the internet's doing.
