"Everybody Wants to Be a Woof" is a song sung by Dodger and the Pet Shop Dogs (Patch and Rolly from 101 Dalmatians; Napoleon and Lafayette from The Aristocats; Tito, Francis, and DeSoto from Oliver & Company; and Jock from Lady and the Tramp) in the House of Mouse episode, "Pluto Saves the Day". As the title suggests, it is a parody of "Everybody Wants to Be a Cat" from The Aristocats.

Trivia[]
- Ironically, while singing in the band with a snarl at DeSoto, Tito gets scared like a fraidy cat after DeSoto replies to him with a growl in return, instead of being brave and unafraid of the Dobermans like in Oliver & Company. Also, Roscoe does not make an appearance in either the episode or this song.
- This song is intended to be titled "Everybody Wants to Be a Dog", but the word "dog" is replaced with "woof", since dogs do not talk in real life.
- The Pet Shop Dogs are inspired by the British synth-pop duo, the Pet Shop Boys.
