Introduction

People like to give their dogs interesting and fun names. Dog names that end in the letter "s" are usually names that can belong to a person as well; names such as Amos, Augustus, Brutus, and Elvis.  Why do people give their dogs the name of a person? Usually, it is because they hope to see in the dog the characteristics of that person. Sometimes their dog reminds them of a person they once knew or maybe they name them after a favorite celebrity.  Sometimes they want to give their dog a powerful and symbolic name and name them after a deity or historic figure such as Zeus or Julius (as in Caesar).

Dog Names Ending in 's' Considerations

If there were to be a certain breed or type of dog that has a name ending with the letter "s", it would seem that smaller breeds would be it. When choosing a name for your dog, you need to ensure that the first syllables of the name have a strong sound. This is because dogs only hear and pay attention to the first syllables that are spoken.  

When choosing a name for your dog you need to find a name that suits their personality.  If your dog seems to be playful you might choose to name them Tass, which means "to play with." Or, maybe they have odd shaped spots sprinkled all over them? Sprinkles could be a good name for them. These types of considerations will make all the difference.

In the end, there is no one breed of dog that you would designate dog names ending in "s". With so many breeds, there are many different characteristics to consider. You just want to choose a name for your dog that is short, one or two syllables, and easy for your dog to realize that it is their name.
