Good Dog, Bad Dog is the fourth studio album by Over the Rhine. It was released independently in 1996 and reissued with a slightly altered track listing by Virgin/Backporch in 2000.

While no singles were issued from the album, according the band's official site, several of the songs on Good Dog, Bad Dog appeared in various prime time television shows and independent films, including 2000's Love & Sex, co-starring Jon Favreau and Famke Janssen. "All I Need Is Everything" was performed on CBS This Morning and included on a Starbucks/Hear Music compilation. References to the band were also included in "Alpha," a Season 6 episode of The X-Files, which featured a dog-expert named Karin Bergquist and an evil Dr. Detweiler whose character is killed in the closing minutes.
