What Your Dog’s Star Sign Says About Their Personality
Our pets are important members of our families, and according to some astrologists, their star signs could be an indication of why they have certain personality traits. Is your lab happy to see you every day? Does your beagle grab food off the table? While some might brush these manners off to a specific breed, astrology is another factor that some often consider.
Aries (March 21 – April 19)
Have you ever noticed Aries is first? Well, any Aris knows this because they consider themselves number one. So if your dog likes to take control, it may have Aries as one of its zodiac elements. They’re adventurous and always willing to go out and sniff out trouble. An Aries dog would likely be the one to escape from the yard. (We can help with that!)
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
While you may have a Doberman pincher, sometimes your pet reminds you of a bull. Is your dog a snuggle bug who is also a bit stubborn? Is your dog afraid of changes in its schedule? When paired with a pup, this Earth sign will give their human a dog that works hard. Taurus dogs also like quiet environments as opposed to noisy and loud.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
The twins symbolize this air sign for a reason. Does your pup have dual personalities? If so, you may be dealing with a Gemini. A Gemini dog will also be very charming, funny, and curious. Dogs born under this star sign are also brilliant, which is why they’re so interested. They do enjoy chatting, so expect a barker!
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
Just like humans born under this sign, Cancer dogs are driven by emotion. Compassionate, the pup born under this sign will avoid exercise and prefer to sit with you on the sofa. Cancer dogs love people and other animals, and they’re loyal, and the day is long. But they do have a mind of their own and like to do things their way.
Leo (July 23 – August 22)
The lion is the animal spirit for those born under Leo, and for a good reason. They are solid and natural leaders. Dogs born under this sign will typically prefer to be the only dog in the house. They want to be the adored one, and don’t you dare shower your attention on anyone else! Leo dogs love to take long walks in the wilderness or around town so people can fawn.
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
Virgo dogs love perfection. They enjoy hard work, have a sense of sincerity, and are steadfast. A lover of obsession, your Virgo dog, will be a good communicator. Virgos are headstrong and love following a routine. They also enjoy grooming and are excellent companions for anyone, including kids and other pets.
Libra (September 23 – October 22)
Creative by nature, you may find your Libra dog barking in their sleep from vivid dreams. Lovers by nature, dogs born under this sun sign will typically try to create a tranquil atmosphere. The personality of the Libra dog is quite charming, so expect everyone your pooch meets to fall in love. The Libra dog lives for this since they love to be loved.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
Dogs born under the sign of Scorpio are fiercely independent. They are devoted to their families, and everyone seems to be drawn to them. Scorpio dogs also like to keep to themselves, but they do it with zeal and passion when they put themselves out there. Your Scorpio pup may seem mysterious, but he’s just having a little ‘me time.’
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
Vivacious and fun, a Sagittarius dog is the perfect partner for a road trip. They enjoy getting out and sniffing new things. A Sagittarius dog loves to learn, so they’ll want to spend more time off the sofa than on. If you adopt a Sagittarius dog, you want to be sure there is plenty of room for them to explore. They like to get out and stay out.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
Capricorn dogs are protectors, and they’re pretty predictable. They love to work and are determined to get what they want. You can give a Capricorn dog responsibility because they will meet it, which is why they make excellent service animals. Dogs born under this sign love to learn new tricks, whether they are young or old.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
Rebellious in nature, be sure to keep your eye on your Aquarius dog. They’re intelligent and stubborn, which can be a troublesome combination. Aquarius dogs like things to go their way, and they get restless quickly, so they like to stay busy. They’re not always the biggest fans of snuggling, but they love people and social gatherings.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Quiet and full of love, Pisces are dreamers. This goes for humans and dogs. This sign is a creative one and is full of inspiration. Their sensitivity wells run deep, and they are also more in tune with their intuition than most. Pisces dogs need snuggles and companionship, so don’t be surprised if they want to be with you constantly, including bedtime.
