    If you specifically go into the camera section rather than all, is DOF turned on?

    Experiment with the f/stop and focal distance. Understand how they work and you'll see how simple it is.
    Here's a quick Tutorial

    Put an object or two behind that dog at separate distances to see the effects of the DOF. It's easy to go overboard, so experimentation is key.

    And like Vaskania said, do yourself a favor and click camera so you don't have to see things you're not working with.

    Ah, yes. Trying to control DOF while looking through the camera itself is a royal PITA.
