The phrase "the dog layed" is incorrect. The correct past tense of "lie" (to recline) is "lay," while "layed" is a non-standard form. The appropriate usage would be "the dog lay down" or "the dog lay."

There is no such word as "layed"; the correct answer is "laid". For those who doubt this, it can be confirmed by any dictionary, including those readily available for free on the web. It's wise to check reliable sources. Layed seems to have been an alternative spelling until the 17th century, but is only used now when misspelling the past tense of the word lay.
