"Honeysuckle Dog" is the title of a recording by Chris Smither, originally recorded in 1973 for United Artists Records but it was never released as around the same time the record label was purchased by Transamerica, which culled over half the UA roster of artists (including Smither) shortly before putting the label out of business altogether. Despite being dropped from the record label, Smither continued to tour, becoming a fixture in the New England folk clubs.

He would re-record a number of the songs for later albums on other labels.
