Beauty and the Beast Dog Names

Introduction

A new dog is an exciting time for any family. I have known some people who have had to wait years before they could get a dog, mainly due to work commitments or housing restrictions that have made it impossible to have one. But when the moment comes when they do have more time, and their living accommodation is welcoming to a dog, then what an exciting moment it is. Everyone has their own ideas about the breed of the dog they want, the color, the size, and even the type of personality they will be looking for. Very few though, actually stop and think about a name. And that is when it really becomes difficult and overwhelming. To be honest, once you have your dog and you have spent a couple of days getting to know them, the naming becomes easier. A large dog just cries out for a name like Buster, Brutus or Achilles just because of their size and power. Smaller dogs suit a different type of name, such as Pickles, Rascal or Bella. Just to make it easier for a new dog owner, we have compiled a list of names from an unlikely but unique source, from the animated movie The Beauty and the Beast. Movies are an excellent source of inspiration and you will find some unique names amongst our list.

Featured Famous Beauty and the Beast Dog

Sultan

In the movie Beauty and the Beast, the Beast’s dog has turned into a footstool, and like all others under the enchantment, he will remain like that until the Beast can redeem himself. In one version of the movie, the dog is known by Sultan, but in the 2017 version, he is named Frou Frou. Whatever name you prefer, he is adorable as a footstool and has all the characteristics of a dog. He is cheerful, excitable and very playful. In the 2017 movie version, Frou Frou is a Yorkshire Terrier and belongs to Maestro Cadenza and Madame de Garderobe. The creation of the footstool character is so realistic that anyone who loves and understands dogs can immediately connect with this creature. It almost makes you wish you had a pet footstool yourself! Sultan, or Frou Frou, is seen throughout the movie (both the live action and the animated version) and is often seen in his dog form chasing Chip (the son of Mrs. Potts ) around the castle. Like most dogs, he loves getting attention and being patted.

A dog named Gizmo plays the part in the 2017 version of Beauty and the Beast. This cute dog was a rescue dog which makes the movie even more heart-warming. From leaving muddy paw prints on the ballroom floor to chasing a pillow that has cat-like characteristics, this mischievous dog just gets on with his life even though it is as a footstool. He often bounds up to Belle for a hug, or to will happily do his job as a footstool when required. Like a true dog, he will join in any antics whether it be the shenanigan's of the broom sticks, or the candelabra attempting to bring order to the castle. But he equally loves curling up close to the roaring castle fire and keeping warm while listening to the others talking and telling stories. During an attack on the castle by the village villain Gaston and his friends, the footstool dog is saved from injury or death when the stove comes to life and frightens the life out of the bad guys. They high tail it out of there, leaving a relieved dog. True to the dog's nature, Sultan doesn't let a little thing like that dampen his day and gets on with doing what usually dogs do, living in the moment.
