Determining Your Puppy's Zodiac Sign

Check the table below to figure out which sign your pup is, and then read his general horoscope below.

Puppy Horoscopes by Sign

Aries Pups

Always the first sign of the zodiac, Aries pups are no exception. They always want to be the first pups at the food bowl and the first ones to grab your attention. Take your furry little Aries for a walk and you'll probably find yourself trotting to keep up as he forges ahead.

Taurus Pups

Being stubborn is a hallmark of Taurus pups. They can definitely present some training challenges, so expect to take longer housebreaking them and teaching them not to chew your shoes. Don't despair though, once they understand exactly what you want, four-legged Aries are just as stubborn about making sure they do the right thing.

Gemini Pups

Energetic and charming; these are the main personality traits of Gemini pups. Your little rascal may tip over the garbage can or make a puddle on the carpet, but you'll find it difficult to give a serious scolding when you look into those sorrowful pleading eyes that assure you the offense will never happen again. Of course, we know it will, but somehow that doesn't matter so much when little Gemini turns on the charm!

Cancer Pups

Of all the zodiac signs, Cancer pups are really the most needy. They do not relish being left alone for long periods at a time, and can behave a little neurotically upon your return home. The good news is that they are very devoted to their people, and are generally willing to spread the love around to everyone.

Leo Pups

Fearless and bold, Leo pups are destined to have adventures. Naturally curious, a Leo pup is the most likely candidate to escape the yard and take off on an adventure. Leo pups, like their human counterparts, also like to be the center of attention. Expect your little Leo to try to ride herd on your family pack.

Virgo Pups

"Pamper me", says the Virgo pup. These little fur balls literally prefer to live in the lap of luxury, whether it's your lap or someone else's. You can buy your Leo pup's affections with luscious treats, and cushy, comfy beds. Virgos don't even mind sporting some trendy canine fashions, so if you're looking for a pup to play dress up, Virgo will play along.

Libra Pups

Libra pups are some of the most gentle and generous little canine souls on the planet. They are so generous that they may just get nosed out of the food bowl by their household doggy companions. Libras also aren't stingy with their affections. They love their people absolutely, but they're just as affection with their canine house mates.

Scorpio Pups

Robust is the best way to describe Scorpio pups. These dogs are extremely healthy, and usually able to shake off what ails them. If they do feel under the weather, you'll be the last one to know about it. The Scorpio pup doesn't waste anytime feeling sorry for itself and will resist a nagging illness until its energy is burned down.

Sagittarius Pups

Sagittarius pups are some of the most entertaining pets there are. Ever the clowns, toss a baby blanket over your little Sag and watch him have a ball tunneling out of it. And watch out, because these pups are also natural explorers. If you lose track of your Sagittarius puppy, look under the furniture and behind the fridge. They define the term "dust bunny".

Capricorn Pups

The Capricorn pup is everybody's best pal. Easy going and just as easily trained, the Cap pup just seems to get what life's all about. Capricorn pups often make great candidates for future assistance dogs.

Aquarius Pups

The little Aquarius pup is definitely an attention seeker. Not that they are needy, because they seldom are; they simply want to share their waking hours with you. When Aquarius is ready for his next adventure, he wants you to come along and share the fun.

Pisces Pups

Flaky but fun, that's the typical Pisces pup. Yes, he's not the most reliable dog when it comes to sticking to house training, and no, you can't leave your chip bag within reach, but your little Pisces truly doesn't mean to offend. He'll make up for his less desirable antics by bringing you his ball to play fetch or his sock to play tug-of-war. Really, anything to amuse you.
