Slaughter & The Dogs is an English punk rock band, originating in the late 1970s. They united at Manchester, England

They released the single "Where Have All The Boot Boys Gone?" in 1978. The same year, singer Wayne Barrett left the band and they began rehearsing with new vocalist Morrissey. Morrissey recorded four songs with them, but did not become a permanent part of the band. (MOJO Classic Magazine, Volume 1 Issue 13, Page 22) Their cover version of "You're Ready Now", takes it origins from Frankie Valli's solo chart single of 1970.

They changed their name to the more concise Slaughter in the early 1980s, and drastically changed both their look and sound. They are not to be confused with other bands with the same name. As of 2006, a revised version of the band is still touring.
