Dog Names Ending in qa

Because you are choosing to play with a unique vowel and consonant combination, you may be unsure whether the name you like is even name-worthy at all. It can often help to find a dog in pop culture or somewhere in the world that shares the same name. If you happen to find at least one other dog that shares it, you know it’s still rare but is worthy of being a dog name as well.

Take Piqa, for example. It’s a beautiful dog name ending in "qa", is easy to pronounce, and you could also spell it as you would pronounce it - Pika. Piqa is also the name of a Weimaraner, owned by Newfoundland and Labrador travel guides Art and Carol.

Piqa’s full name is O’Nuna Piqati, but her owners call her Piqa for short. Piqati means companion in Inuktitut, while Nuna means land. If you put the two together, Piqa the dog is a land companion.

She loves going for walks, hikes, swimming, and even going for a drive in the car. Her owners are retired, so they travel around a lot, letting Piqa live the life of luxury. For the most part, Piqa doesn’t have any other company. However, sometimes, family bring over a Boxer called Myla and the pair have a blast.

When the weather cools down and swimming is out of the question, Piqa fills her day by chasing people on Skidoos. Sometimes, her owners put a coat on her, and they have even considered buying her shoes so her feet don’t get cold when she heads out on her own.

Piqa is a special and unique dog because she has a dedicated page on her owners’ website. They keep it up to date with the hikes they take together and all the adventures they find themselves on.

However, it’s not only Piqa’s name that’s something special but her breed as well. Piqa is a Weimaraner, a traditional gun dog that people would breed to handle bears and deer. They used to be a sought-after dog in Germany, named the Silver Ghost, and were prominent in hunting. Today, however, they make lovely family pets, as long as you exercise them.

They have a sleek, silver coat, blue, amber, or gray eyes, and a distinct appearance. They are elegant in their stature, exceptionally devoted to their owner, and love being within touching distance of people. They will follow you throughout your home merely to ensure you’re close to them. This breed requires a lot of mental and physical activity.
