Learn About Your Dog’s Personality Based on the Zodiac Sign

Many people nowadays are adopting their pooches from shelters and fewer people are buying their new furry best friends from breeders. That is a wonderful thing to do since so many dogs around need loving homes. However, the truth is whenever you adopt a dog from a shelter, it is not likely that you will know your furry boy or furry gal’s birthday.

Additionally, the personality of the dog usually has a lot to do with the breed, especially if he or she is a purebred pooch. Terriers are known to be loud and barky. The Bichon Frise is known to be the ultimate lapdog, just like the Malinois is known to be an excellent guard dog.

However, the breed of the dog is not the only thing that determines Fido’s personality! Just like people, animals align with the zodiac too! As I said, if you adopted your pooch, it is unlikely you will know his or her birthday. However, after reading these dog sun sign descriptions, you might be able to get an idea! Let’s go over that right now.

The Aries Pooch

Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and is a fire sign. You know that the common traits of Aries are passion, independence, and has boundless energy. Dogs that have their sun in Aries are extremely confident, inquisitive, and will want to constantly play a game of fetch. Don’t be surprised if your Aries pooch doesn’t listen to your commands either because your fiery dog has an agenda of his or her own!

The Taurus Doggo

Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac and it is an earth sign. The common traits of Taurus are stability, the need for routine and security, and the love of material things.

You likely are aware that one of the common Taurean traits is stubbornness and your Taurus pooch just may not listen to commands for the sake of not feeling like it.
