Well depends on what you are talking about.
In computers doggy means slower than it is supposed to be.
Most of this comes from inadequate memory.
I run 2 GB's in my laptop and would recommend a minimum of 1
GB. Many come with 512 MB or maybe even 256! Not a chance.
I added 1 GB of ram to my new laptop from Office Depot for 29.95 plus tax.

More powerful processors and machines have a longer lifespan and
involve transitioning between machines less often although buying a
gaming machine would be overkill if you aren't a gamer.
Laptops can be "doggy" because they are trying hard to extend
battery life. A less powerful processor saves power. So
inexpensive laptops can really be doggy...
