As any dog parent will know, every dog is different. Some are really social, some very curious, some extra intelligent and others are just plain goofballs! Have you ever wondered why your furry family member acts a certain way?
To better understand your complex canine, it might help to look to the stars. Zodiac signs have long intrigued those seeking guidance or self-awareness, so it makes sense to also consider how your pooch's sign may influence their personality.
While not based on any scientific or factual evidence, astrology can be a fun and harmless way to get to know your pup a little better.
