Have you ever wondered why your dog acts the way they do? It could be their personality, or maybe it’s written in the stars. Astrology has been around since at least the 3rd millennium BCE and is known to tell truths about us all. You may know your zodiac and astrological information, but now you can learn about your dogs, too! Let’s dive in and explore the true intentions and qualities your dog may experience.

What is Astrology?

Astrology is a belief system known to predict behaviors, actions, and events based on the interpretation of the fixed stars, the sun, the moon, and the planets. In Astrology, the sign of the zodiac someone is born under can reveal qualities about them. The zodiac has twelve astrological signs: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces.

Each sign has its own defining qualities, characteristics, and symbols that help us possibly determine a little more about ourselves and our pups!

Aries

Born: March 21 – April 19

This fire sign is known to be competitive and feisty. If your pup is an Aries, prepare for a pup with tons of energy. They’ll love playing plenty of fetch, hide-and-seek, and other games. The more active you are with an Aries canine, the better. Their energetic personalities crave activity and exercise. Aries is most compatible with Aquarius.

Taurus

Born: April 20 – May 20

Dogs born under the Taurus zodiac are kind-hearted, loving, and loyal. They enjoy spending quality time with their human counterparts and enjoy calm activities like a walk around the block or cuddles on the couch! Taurus is most compatible with Virgo.

Gemini

Born: May 21 – June 20

The nature of twins influences Gemini pups. This means that they are playful and adaptable with charming and intelligent personalities. Puzzle games and other brain-stimulating toys are perfect for a dog born under the Gemini zodiac. If your furbaby is a Gemini, they’d be a great sibling! Gemini is most compatible with Libra.

Cancer

Born: June 21 – July 22

If your dog is a Cancer, they’re compassionate, kind-hearted, and crave emotional connections with their companions. If you spend much time at home, your Cancer pup will be overjoyed. Cancers are also highly protective, so if you’ve got young children or other dogs, your furry friend born under the Cance zodiac will treat them as their own. Cancer is most compatible with Scorpio.

Leo

Born: July 23 – August 23

Leo dogs are confident and natural-born leaders. Great if you have just one Leo pup, but be wary of furry siblings born during this time. Leos love to be the center of attention and thrive off praise. Treats and pets are a must with this sign. They are sociable but enjoy time at home, so daily socialization is excellent, but cuddles on the couch are just as good! Leo is most compatible with Sagittarius.

Virgo

Born: August 23 – September 22

Virgos are often intelligent and detail-oriented. This makes dogs born under this astrological sign extremely easy to train. Brain-stimulating toys are a must for pups born between August 23 and September 22. Bring on the treats and compliments to help this pup show their full potential! Virgo is most compatible with Capricorn.

Libra

Born: September 23 – October 22

Libras are known to be peacekeepers because they value harmony and balance. Dogs who are Libras are gentle and cooperative. Libra pups are ideal for families looking for a chill companion. Libra is most compatible with Leo.

Scorpio

Born: October 23 – November 21

Scorpios are known for being intense and often misunderstood. They can be mysterious and secretive. If your dog is a Scorpio, they’ll love to explore the unknown and try new things. They may also feel overprotective of you and your family. Scorpio is most compatible with Pisces.

Sagittarius

Born: November 22 – December 21

Sagittarius dogs are bubbly, optimistic, and ready to explore! They’ll love checking out a new hiking path or playing with a toy that stimulates their curiosity. Dogs who are Sagittariuses may be more vocal, and since they appreciate spontaneity, they won’t let you forget it! Sagittarius is most compatible with Aries.

Capricorn

Born: December 22 – January 19

The sign, Capricorn, is known to be reliable, disciplined, and responsible. Any dog born around this time of the year will appreciate consistency and structure. If your dog is a Capricorn, prioritize a daily schedule. Make sure feeding times stay consistent and potty breaks are set in stone. This will help them live a happier life and keep any accidents from happening. Capricorn is most compatible with Taurus.

Aquarius

Born: January 20 – February 18

Aquarius dogs are often independent and unconventional. They enjoy brain-stimulating games and different challenges. These pups like doing their own thing and quickly picking up fun tricks. Aquarius is most compatible with Gemini.

Pisces

Born: February 19 – March 20

The last Zodiac sign, but certainly not the least, is Pisces. Pisces pups are known to be sensitive and warm-hearted. They are deeply emotional and can be moody. Dogs who are Pisces are perfect for big families and great with children. All parties will enjoy spending quality time together. Pisces is most compatible with Cancer.
