{me la'e zo'oi}, in that order. I believe this was a typo. But then
we may consider to complete the foreign borrowing toolkit:

{zo'oi dog} -- "dog" (the word itself)
{la'oi dog} -- someone called "dog"
{me'oi dog} -- gerku (bridi)
{le'oi dog} -- le gerku (sumti)
{lo'oi dog} -- lo gerku (sumti again)


BTW, is {la'e zo'oi dog} the romoi case or the da'amoi one?
