The "Bad Dog" format moved to 105.1 MHz and began simulcasting with its former exclusive home at 95.7 on January 14, 2009, as the 95.7 frequency WWBD was sold to Apex Broadcasting. The WWBD letters moved to the former WICI in Sumter, which was also called "Bad Dog".

In 2009, WGFG moved to 105.3 FM.

On July 1, 2011 WGFG changed their format to country, branded as "Cat Country 105.3".
