In literature, '''-ins''' is used to mark possession, and in many places where ''dos'' is used  (most remarkably '''-ins''' is never used to turn nouns into adjectives, like ''dos jésund'', which means ''healthy'', but can be literally translated as ''of health''). Nouns, not pronouns, that show possession tend to be ''after'' the objects they are possessing.
