Moon Dogs are a celestial phemenon, where a pair of images of the moon, usually a full moon, appear horizontally beside the rising or setting moon, at a distance of 22 degrees, caused by refraction of the moon's image by ice crystals. When the moon is higher in the sky, this refraction results in a "Ring Around the Moon" See Wikipedia article on Sun Dogs. Moon Dogs are very much rarer than Sun Dogs.
