this is cute...

This is meant to be funny and ammusing, not nesicarily true, though I have found some that work perfectly.

Ever wonder how your dog got his funny habits? Or why your new kitten is so quirky? The answers could be determined by their date of birth and how astrology affects their character. Astrology can play an important part in your pet's life.

Astrology And Your Pet by Elizabeth Joyce

ARIES: (3/21-4/20)
Aries cats and dogs are always bursting with energy. They love attention, petting and cuddling and are never shy. In fact, it may be hard to keep up with these hyperactive animals. Quick tempered, they are not the type to back down from a fight. They are easily embarrassed, so don't scold them in public. Reward good behavior with a special snack. Never give your pet "people food." Strong flavored and spicy treats are their favorite. The most difficult aspect of keeping an Aries pet is to get them to obey you. They may be difficult to housebreak. Firmness, a schedule, and repetition is what is needed.

TAURUS (4/21-5/21)
Taurus pets are quiet and passive and are the easiest in the Zodiac to train. However, if they are provoked into fighting - watch out! These animals never give up. They are cautious about meeting new people, but when they like you, you are a friend for life. They will always remember your "scent." These animals love to be outdoors, but may prefer sleeping to playing. They love to eat and may develop a weight problem. They are possessive and will guard their food and toys fiercely.

GEMINI (5/21-6/20)
Gemini pets are curious, friendly and loaded with energy. These dogs may bark a lot. If possible, get a playmate for these animals as they hate to be alone. They are fast learners and can be trained well. Remember to always keep the door shut, or they will be off in a flash, exploring and looking for new friends. With both people and other animals, Gemini pets rarely have favorites. They just love the company of everyone.

CANCER (6/21-7/21)
These little pets are very sensitive creatures and hate to be upset. They do not like loud noise or yelling. They are easily irritated by others and thrive on a calm, stable environment. Any change in their routine, or if a stranger is in the house, can cause them to retreat and be gone for hours and even days. Cancer pets are cautious about meeting new people. Once they trust you, though, you've made a friend for life. They do not like sharing the home with any other animals, as they want your undivided attention. They do not like to be left alone, and can tend to become a bit destructive if left alone too long.

LEO (7/22-8/21)
Your Leo pets feel as if they are King or Queen of the Castle. They strut around with Royal Grace. They love a good adventure and will roam as far as you will let them, so make each outside walk an event. They are born leaders and may soon have a pack of friends following them. They are quite curious and consider nothing off limits, which is a fitting attitude for King or Queen Of The Jungle. Leo animals love children and make purr-fect pets. They are very protective and would gladly give their lives for yours. Leo pets have a long memory and tend to have a long life span. Treat them kindly and they will remain friends for life.

VIRGO (8/22-9/21)
Virgo pets are wonderful companions and make great "seeing eye dogs." A sixth sense lets them know when you are unhappy or sick, and they are always there to comfort you. They are shy animals, preferring their own company, and are content to play by themselves. They are reserve and won't show their affections easily. Don't expect your Virgo pet to come running to you when you get home. They will gladly spend entire evenings lying at your feet or resting their head on your lap. They are fussy eaters, so once you've found them a good brand of pet food, stick with it.

LIBRA (9/22-10/21)
Libra pets are easygoing and like lots of attention. Like the scales of justice that represents this sign, these pets divide their attention equally among all members of the family. They make wonderful companions and hate to be left alone. These pets love good food and soft music. Put music on when you leave home and they will remain mild mannered with a gentle disposition. They can be stubborn at times, and may disappear to sulk. Libra's will eat just about anything, combine this with a tendency to be lazy, and they can put on a lot of extra weight. Be sure to give them plenty of exercise.

SCORPIO (10/22-11/21)
Scorpio pets are extremely loyal. Kindness shown to these animals at an early age will come back to you for the rest of their pet life. If they are mistreated early in life, gaining their trust back will be along and involved process. They tend to snap or nip if they have been mistreated. Scorpio pets are intimidating to other animals. Rarely will they back down from a confrontation. They are full of pent up energy and need to run around a lot to release it. Keep a close watch on them, however, as they are possessive and have a tendency to fight. (Watch them closely with mail men or delivery people.)

SAGITTARIUS (11/22-12/21)
Sagittarius pets are the fun loving clowns of the animal world, and they are always eager to please. They love the outdoors, so be sure to give them plenty of room to roam. If you keep them inside for long periods of time, you may tend to break their spirit. They are intelligent animals but may seem to lack common sense. When they get over excited they become quite forgetful. They are one of the most loving pets in the Zodiac, so expect a face full of wet kisses when you walk through the door. As they tend to be forgetful, you must be firm when you discipline these animals. Don't worry or be afraid to set strong limits! They will respond well.

CAPRICORN (12/22-1/21)
Capricorn pets stay young forever and tend to act like little puppies or kittens well into old age. They have endless endurance and will play happily hours on end. They make the best playmates for children. They can be moody and tend to sulk if they don't get their way. Be patient when training these pets as they tend to be slow learners. These pets are more than loyal to the family. They are always determined to please and your patience will be well rewarded.

AQUARIUS (1/22-2/19)
They are truly the comedians of the Zodiac. They are gentle and loving with children and will bark or meow just to hear the sound of their own voices. They are extremely intelligent and unbelievably scatterbrained. You need lots of patience when you train them. They do not obey orders easily and the more you push them, the deeper they will put their paws into the ground and refuse to budge. Sometimes these pets don't want to be cuddled or petted, but remain aloof. Aquarius pets are curious and inquisitive and will literally push their noses into everything.

PISCES (2/19-3/21)
Pisces pets are the gentle, peace loving pets that hate shouting and fighting. They are sensitive to your moods and will plant themselves securely at your side if you are sick and upset. If your Pisces pet needs discipline, be very careful how you go about it. They tend to be quite intuitive and can sense when you are angry or upset. they will stop what they are doing in order to please you. They don't need a lot of wide, open space and are good pets for people living in condos or apartments. You may begin to feel as if you have a "psychic link" with these animals because they can easily pick up on your thoughts. They also love music.

Kino fits the Aquarius (Feb 9th) almost to a T

Taz · 07-14-2004, 04:01 PM

Well the puppies are Sagittarius(I am too

), and it sounds just like them. But Duke is Aries, and it doesn't sound like him at all.

fireworksinjuly · 07-14-2004, 04:09 PM

yea, thats true with human hororscopes too, I just thought it was kinda cute and thought Id share...

Taz · 07-14-2004, 04:21 PM

Yeah, I read my horoscope almost everyday(it’s a habit I pick up from my mother). Some days it’s on, and some days it’s off.

Mellie · 07-14-2004, 09:40 PM

Peanut fits the Sag profile exactly!
We consider Jake's birthday to be the day we brought him home from the shelter, since we do not know for sure. But he doesn't fit that horoscope at all. In fact, he seems to fit none of them. Once again, proof my Jake is soooo special and unique.

Barrett · 07-15-2004, 07:58 PM

My bailey is unique too. Non of the horoscopes fit her to a T. Now if they had one saying:

These dogs are made of velcro and are stuck to your leg at all times. If you want to use the bathroom your dog will be there. While you try to cook dinner you will be stepping over your dog at all times. If you try to leave the house without your dog you won't be able to close the door fast enough to prevent it from escaping to be with you. You might as well give in to your dog and take it everywhere with you or you will exhaust yourself trying to pry it off your leg.

Now that fits Bailey to a T.

All of this I can deal with except constant barking.. Theres a dog across the street that is all he does.. I'm wondering it hes doing it for attention.. Well I know he is .. thats a dumb question.. Something I don't think he gets alot of.. You can walk out front and as soon as he sees you he goes to barking..

fireworksinjuly · 07-16-2004, 09:57 AM

Barking dogs..yea I have three....the Min Pins bark at things, or so they think, and then Kino barks cuz they are...

There is a Boxeraccross the street that 1- I think wants to play if were outside...or 2- like you said doesnt get enough attention...

and around the corner is a black golden retriever and a minature schnouzer(totally spelled wrong) that love me and Kino so they want to play...

Its a busy neighborhood, though the semi neglected Huskies and Dalmation have moved out...
