The term dogies is used to describe orphaned calves in the context of ranch work in the American West, as in "Keep them dogies moving". In some places, a cow kept to provide milk for one family is called a "house cow". Other obsolete terms for cattle include "neat" (this use survives in "neatsfoot oil", extracted from the feet and legs of cattle), and "beefing" (young animal fit for slaughter). An onomatopoeic term for one of the most common sounds made by cattle is moo (also called lowing).

"Git Along, Little Dogies" is a traditional cowboy ballad, also performed under the title "Whoopie Ti Yi Yo." It is believed to be a variation of a traditional Irish ballad about an old man rocking a cradle. The cowboy adaptation is first mentioned in the 1893 journal of Owen Wister, author of The Virginian. Through Wister's influence, the melody and lyrics were first published in 1910 in John Lomax's Cowboy Songs and Other Frontier Ballads. It is cataloged as Roud Folk Song Index No. 827.

According to the manuscript of Martin Parsons, "Twistin Dogies Tails Over Rollins Pass", each summer, Mr. Rollins would "build a cribbing of logs ... and would fill the center with rocks and earth, which helped reduce the grade between the hills." The original log cribbing can be seen today on the narrow ridge of Guinn Mountain, north of Yankee Doodle Lake. Rollins also built The Junction House, "a large, two-story hewd-log structure" as a hotel, "at the point of intersection of the Berthoud and Rollins roads.""Colorado Miner (Weekly) November 14, 1874 — Colorado Historic Newspapers Collection". www.coloradohistoricnewspapers.org.

Git 'Long Little Dogies by Clara Mcdonald Williamson, 1945 Starting in 1943, Williamson took several classes in drawing and painting at Southern Methodist University and the Dallas Museum School. She quickly began working on what she called "memory paintings" that referred to incidents from her early rural life; these became a dominant theme in her oeuvre. Often the underlying story or event figures in the title. Examples include Chicken for Dinner (1945), The Girls Went Fishing (1945–46), Standing in the Need of Prayer (1947, showing a revival meeting by torchlight), Texas Barn Dance (1951), The Day the Bosque Froze Over (1953), and The Night Before Christmas (1954).

She also made paintings whose subjects were more generic to the western United States, such as two paintings about cattle drives—Git 'Long Little Dogies (1945) and Old Chisholm Trail (1952)—and a painting about the coming of the railroad, The Building of the Railroad (1949–50). The cattle- drive paintings are unusual as a pair since Williamson hardly ever painted the same subject more than once. With their genre subjects, eccentric perspective, flat paint handling, and simplified and stylized forms, Williamson's paintings are typical of American naïve art. Her palette was restrained, leaning towards desaturated greens, browns, and grays in middle and light tones that lent a luminous subtlety to the finished works.
