The literary term in this sentence is metaphor. It compares the person referred to as a "wolf" to a "dog" to convey a deeper meaning about their true nature.

What does thou have to say mean?

We need some context here. I assume you are talking about "thou have to say" which is a fragment of a sentence and means nothing unless the sentence is completed. Since the verb "have" does not agree with the pronoun "thou" (the correct form would be "hast"), we have to assume that there is some other verb in the sentence. Perhaps it was "What dost thou have to say?" but I'm just guessing.

"Thee" and "thou" are archaic or formal English pronouns used in place of "you." "Thee" is the object form, while "thou" is the subject form. Use "thee" when referring to the object of a sentence (e.g., "I love thee"), and "thou" when referring to the subject (e.g., "Thou art kind").
