Do ogres get proficiency with ogre hooks?
Dogslicers and horsechoppers are both martial weapons. Therefore, goblin warriors and fighters and rangers get proficiency with them automatically. Since a dogslicer's more or less the same type of weapon as a short sword, any classes that grant proficiency with short swords should also grant proficiency with dogslicers.
Ogres, on the other hand, are giants. As part of the giant type, they're automatically proficient with all simple and martial weapons. Since ogre hooks are martial weapons, yup; they get proficiency with them for free.

I see. I was pretty sure they wouldn't get the horsechopper one for free, but seeing the bard get a dogslicer, I thought it might be a racial thing. Any class that gets shortsword also gets it, ok got it.

That's what I get for not looking up the race stuff. I just assumed that like humanoids, giants got simple plus stat block weapons, I didn't realize that they got martial as well. Ok, never mind then.
