title: Dog watch
text: A dog watch is a work shift, also known as a "watch", in a maritime watch system that is half the length of a standard watch period. This is typically formed by splitting a single four-hour watch period between 16:00 and 20:00 to form two two-hour dog watches, with the "first" dog watch from 16:00 to 18:00 and the "second" or "last" dog watch from 18:00 to 20:00. This watch exists because, in order for the crew to rotate through all the watches, it is necessary to have an odd number of watches i
