When you call someone, usually a female, a 'Dog' it means they're probably ugly or revolting in some way. If you call them a 'Dawg' it means that they're a friend or a 'homie' and are one of the pack. What if you're in the "ghetto" one day and use dawg while talking to someone, but say it without the proper pronouciation and say it more like dog. You could get shot for something like that, dog.

Get the Dawgmug. Term used by rapper Xzibit to refer to anyone he happens to be speaking to at the time. Often precedes a redundant revelation that he has heard said dawg likes something, so he has put a related object in that dawg's car so they can observe said enjoyable something while they drive.
"Yo dawg, I heard you like driving, so I put a car in yo' car so you can drive while you drive."
