Might the dog's name have been Senta? Sinta:
The first thing that came to my mind was Sinterklaas, the Dutch "Santa Claus".
I think the sound is alright, but I really dislike the meaning.

could have been!I only vaguely recall the dog - I don't even know if it was male or female, it died when I was quite young. But I remember chasing after it calling "Sun-ta! Sun-ta!" Poor puppy.My Opa was Dutch, and spoke German too, so Senta is definitely a possibility.

Was it an Alsatian? ;)
Senta is one of the most popular and typical dog names in Germany (alongside Asta, Rex, Hasso, Bello,....)Wow, that was really off-topic.
Sorry!
