DoggoLingo is an internet "language" based on adapted English words, heavy on cute-sounding diminutives and onomatopeia, which is implicitly (although not explicitly) supposed to mimic how a dog (or cat or other animal - it is not limited to dogs) might think or speak, in their relentlessly joyful, scatter-brained way. It all seems a bit trite and pointless to me, but many people seem quite sold on it.
This is not intended as a definitive or comprehensive dictionary, but just to give a flavour of it:
