Try...

def double(source):
    word = []
    for x in range(len(source)):
        word.append(source[x]*(x+1))
        print ''.join(map(str, word))


double("dog")

input()

and if you want it all on one line try this for python 2:

def double(source):
    word = []
    for x in range(len(source)):
        word.append(source[x]*(x+1))
    print ''.join(map(str, word)),


double("dog")

input()

and this for python 3:

def double(source):
    word = []
    for x in range(len(source)):
        word.append(source[x]*(x+1))
    print(''.join(map(str, word)), end="")


double("dog")

input()

 "".join(l*i for i,l in enumerate(my_word,1))

I think should do it
