When you are in need of sex and you want it badly. You are willing to lower the bar as well in order to gain sex as it has been a long period of time, theoretically you are starving for sex.
A: ‚Hey Kevin, what are you up to tonight?‘. ‚I‘m going over to the girl I met earlier. You know, dog’s gotta eat ‘.

Get the dog’s gotta eat mug.Some one who eats dog shit and gobbles on knobs. Someone who uses your computer without asking and you come home to a shitload of goofy ass people in your room. Someone who shits in the toilet and doesn't clean it up when it clogs so other people have to clean it then he blames it on them. He is a fag. He uses all the dishes and never cleans them. If you buy chips and salsa and he finds it, you'll never see it again. Mexican

Get the people who eat dogs mug."Dog eat dog" is analogous to the idiom "every man for himself", which implies a situation in which fierce deadly competition is necessary for your survival.
Some of these recent definitions seem to be offended at this saying due to their ignorance of the origin behind this 500 year old idiom. Some people do not seem to realize that this idiom is NOT meant to be taken literally. So, why is it called "dog eat dog" you may eagerly ask? Well, the idiom is actually a play on the much older latin idiom "dog does NOT eat dog" (canis caninam non est), which originated as early as 43 BC and first spoken by Roman scholar Marcus Tarentius Varro.
"Dog does not eat dog" is a proverbial saying indicating that even animals are better than humans in that they don’t prey on their own kind. The phrase entered into English discourse in 1543. Eventually, the phrase got flipped and applied to humans and henceforth "dog eat dog" was born. Both idioms generally imply the same thing (that humans are capable of being merciless).
So to summarize, the idiom "dog-eat-dog" is derived from its parent idiom "dog-does-not-eat-dog". The latter idiom makes sense in and of itself, while the former idiom ONLY makes sense in relation to its latter.
Case closed and dismissed.

Me: It's a dog eat dog world out there.
Some kid: No it's not. It never was a dog eat dog world. Humans eat humans, but dogs don't eat dogs.
Me: My guy, you are so heavily misinformed. Dog eat dog isn't referring to dogs, it's referring to humans.
Some kid: So why don't they just name it "human eat human" instead?
Me: Because context my guy, it's all about context. You see... "dog eat dog" actually belongs to the much older idiom "dog does not eat dog", indicating that dogs never prey on their own kind. It took around 700 years for this idiom to become flipped and applied to humans. And if it weren't applied to humans, well, that would completely negate the original meaning as that would imply dogs are merciless in which they aren't (most animals will back down from a fight if they lose, humans don't).
Some kid: No reply.
Me: Also since you took it literally, I'll have you know that from an evolutionary standpoint, dogs will eat other dogs if this is what ensures their survival.
