Featured Famous Dog With a Name that Starts with 'Os'

Oscar

Our first famous dog with an "Os" name is Oscar Bieber! Back in December 2018, Justin Bieber and his new wife Hailey Baldwin adopted a small pooch that they named Oscar. Oscar made his Instagram debut on Bieber's account when he posted a photo of the dog sitting on his shoulder with the caption, "Meet our dogson his name is #Oscar." The famous singer and his model wife have since shared videos and pictures of Oscar, who is enjoying a comfortable life of puppy-hood with his new owners. Oscar's breed has yet to be determined, but he looks to most like a Maltese Yorkie mix, so his fans expect him to stay small. Right now, it also appears that Oscar is an only dog.

Another dog named Oscar might not be considered a traditional celebrity, but he is making our list anyway. This Oscar, lovingly referred to as the globe-trotting Mutt, became famous when his owner, Joanne Lefson, published a blog about his amazing world travels. Oscar has been seen riding camels in Pakistan and soaking up the scenery in the Amazon. A major part of Oscar's outings was a helicopter tour he took over the Grand Canyon. He has even been spotted in a hot air balloon and crossing the Golden Gate Bridge. Oscar has visited more than 30 countries and has been photographed at some of the world's most iconic landmarks, including the Great Wall of China. Oscar's incredible journey started when his owner adopted him from a kennel in South Africa just a day before his planned euthanization in 2005. His travels didn't start until 2009, however. Unfortunately, Oscar died in early 2013 after being hit by a car in California. He was 10 years old; he and Joanne helped raise money for dogs looking for their forever homes.

Dog Name that Starts with 'Os' Considerations

Deciding on a name for a dog is no easy task. There is a lot to consider throughout this process. First, it is important to remember that you will be calling your dog this name a lot! You want to pick a name that you enjoy and that you won't get tired of repeating, especially while you are working on training your dog. Second, you might want to start thinking about the personality of your dog or its appearance. For some people, finding a name that seems to "match" their dog is very important. Picking a name that matches your dog's personality or appearance may delay your ability to choose a name, because you might need a little time to let your dog really settle in.

If you are looking for a name that you love, and you discover that you really like the "Os" sound, there is no reason that you can't narrow down your name search to just names that start with that letter combination. At Wag!, we have a full list of great potential dog names that begin with the letters "Os". Take a look below and let us know if you pick your name from our list!
