"Dogs Are the Best People" is a single by Australian rock band the Fauves, the second from the album Future Spa.

"[3] On their website, the Fauves wrote, "This is a remedial level song to play but the tab might be a bit confusing.

'Novelty song' is probably too harsh a term but that kind of angle was the sort of thing that was getting air play.

"[5] AllMusic called the song "guitar pop at its best" and noted that it was "amazingly, [a] mainstream Australian hit".

"[7] Australian Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, named it as one of his favourite songs on ABC Radio Melbourne.
