No, that was Patti Page, about 20 years ahead of Florence:

How Much Is That Doggie In the Window
Words & Music by Bob Merrill
Recorded by Patti Page, 1953 (#1)

Refrain:

C G7
How much is that doggie in the window,

C
The one with the waggley tail?

G7
How much is that doggie in the window?

C
I do hope that doggie's for sale.

C G7
I must take a trip to California

C
And leave my poor sweetheart alone;

G7
If he has a dog, he won't be lonesome,

C
And the doggie will have a good home.

Repeat Refrain:

I read in the paper there are robbers
With flashlights that shine in the dark;
My love needs a doggie to protect him
And scare them away with one bark.

I don't want a bunny or a kitty,
I don't want a parrot that talks;
I don't want a bowl of little fishies
He can't take a goldfish for walks.

Repeat Refrain:
