I heard on a interview on one of the band members that they were in Australia when it got cold. On of the person's they was staying with told them it was a three dog night. Meaning according to old custom they determined the cold by how many dogs you had to sleep in your bed to keep you warm. That's how 3 dog night got its name from a cold evening that it would take 3 dogs to keep them warm

This group was pretty popular in the 70's. After they broke up the lead singer lost everything to his drug use.Just another sad story in the music world
