Astrology signs and puppies don’t have that much in common. But each dog breed has its own qualities, just like each astrology sign. Read on to find out which dog breed is reflective of your sign’s characteristics.  

Aries (March 21 – April 19): Beagle

Aries, you are known for being daring and energetic. A Beagle is always willing to hunker down for playtime. 

Taurus (April 20 – May 20): Siberian Husky

Taurus, you are known for your stubborn qualities. Just like a Siberian Husky, you don’t go out of your way to initiate problems but are not afraid to stand by what you believe in.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20): Chihuahua

Gemini are cheerful, charismatic, and fierce. Everyone loves a Gemini once you meet them, but be careful – like a Chihuahua, they are a lot fiercer than they look.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22): Boxer

Not everyone can see how sensitive you are, Cancer. You have a kind soul and wear your heart on your sleeve, just as Boxers do. It’s hard not to be captivated by your passion and charm.

Leo (July 23 – August 22):Chow Chow

Chow Chow is translated into “fluffy-lion” dog, and Leos are the experts at being fluffy and fierce. You are an ideal friend and know exactly how to warm your way into everyone’s hearts, but also how to deal with anything that life throws at you.

Virgo (August 23 – September 22): Border Collie

Some may say that a Border Collie is the smartest dog breed, and Virgos are known for their intelligence and modesty. It’s easy for a Virgo to be the life of the party without coming off as a know-it-all.

Libra (September 23 – October 22): Dalmatian

The Dalmatian breed turns heads wherever they go due to their eye-catching white and black spotted coat. Libras have no problems turning heads either with their magnetic personalities and extraordinary beauty.

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21): Rottweiler

Rottweilers are known for their strength, so it’s no wonder they’re often police dogs! Scorpio, your passion and strength go hand-in-hand. You are known to be the rock for your loved ones.

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21): Pug

Pugs are unique, sharing distinct features with a heart of gold. You, Sagittarius, know how to stand apart from the crowd. Your friends love how loyal and calming you are to be around.

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19): Pitbull

You are fearless, Capricorns. You are never afraid to fight for what you believe in. Although Pitbulls can seem intimidating at first to some, just like you Pitbulls are truly a joy to be around.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 18): German Shepherd

The ultimate guard dog. Both German Shepherds and Aquarius’ are protective of the ones they love. It’s easy to for people to want to be around you because it’s easy for others to open up to you and bring their guard down.

Pisces (February 19 – March 20): Pomeranian

You may be small like the Pomeranian breed Pisces, but that doesn’t mean you don’t know what you want. You know exactly what you want and aren’t afraid to go and get it.

 

Whether you like dogs or not, puppies always find a way to weave themselves into our hearts. And even if you do or don’t fully believe in astrology, you know your sign and the qualities attributed to it. Every dog has unique personalities, just like every human. But we can all agree on one thing: We Are All Amazing!
