Woof is a software application used to build a Puppy Linux distribution from another Linux distribution.[3][4][5] This application must be run inside Puppy Linux, and an internet connection is required in order to download the other Linux distro's binary packages.[6]
The CD-Remaster program available in Puppy Linux can be used to build variants of the Puppy Linux distribution.[7]
In 2013, Woof was forked to Woof-CE, which uses a git version control system hosted on GitHub.[8]

Build process
The process used by Woof to build a Puppy Linux distribution from another Linux distribution:
- The user selects the Linux distribution to be used as the foundation of the Puppy Linux distribution
- The user selects the choice of packages and other options
- The user initiates the build process
- If needed for the selected Linux distribution, the scripts perform preprocessing tasks
- The scripts download the package database files of the selected Linux distribution
- The scripts download the package files of the selected Linux distribution
- The scripts build the generic Puppy-packages
- The scripts build the Puppy Linux live-CD .iso file of the Puppy Linux distribution
- The user burns the Puppy Linux live-CD from the .iso file
- If desired, the user builds a new variant of the Puppy Linux distribution using the CD-Remaster tool available in Puppy Linux
