What does Dutch mean?
/dʌt͡ʃ/1 syllable

Dutch traces back to the Middle Dutch Duutsch, a term for the Germanic peoples and languages of continental Europe, the same root that gives German its own name for itself, Deutsch. In English it eventually narrowed to refer specifically to the Netherlands.

Dutch has a gruff, no-nonsense charm that suits a pet with a sturdy build and a bit of an old-soul attitude. It's short, easy to call across a yard, and full of character.
