Nowhere else on the Chinese zodiac will you find a creature so utterly loyal. Like its animal namesake, these are the people you turn to when you need someone to listen, someone to help, or just someone to show you a bit of affection. And why not when they are so generous and modest as well?

That’s not to say our beloved dog-born are perfect. Just like their animal counterparts, they come in a wide variety of personalities which are influenced highly by those around them. They can be quick to anger and defensive, especially if they have been mistreated in the past.

Their loyalty often comes in awesome proportions, though, and you can be assured they will carry out a task you give them well. Be sure you pull your weight and show strength as well, though, because dogs like a functioning pack and don’t like people who leech off others.

Dogs need to be careful not to get too stubborn or be too harsh towards others who need to use the support of other people.

Remember to refer to this post for information about what your element and yin or yang mean in accordance to your sign.
