From the co-founder of Dogecoin, it's pronounced "dohj". Listen to him say it and explain where it came from: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVDcOI0-gdQ

The co-founder of Dogecoin is not responsible for the start or proliferation of the meme. Which comes from a joke about Vogue (the magazine)thus pronounced as such.

My take is that it's clearly an intentional misspelling and they're almost always pronounced the same as the original word.
