Aries (March 21 - April 19) Your owners aren't exactly like bosses to you and they're not exactly like parents, either. Their status is somewhere between your alpha and a doting older relative. However you see them, they're definitely like family, fur or no fur. Enjoy that energy today.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20) It takes more than a good bowl of chow to make you feel secure and content. Your owners have another thing coming if they think that all they have to do to satisfy you. Laying around the doghouse isn't as appealing as all that. Make your discontent loud and clear, with an emphasis on loud.
Gemini (May 21 - June 21) It's a good thing you don't have opposing thumbs after all, because they would just make you look bad. Being all about your possessions looks fierce and strong in a dog but cheap and tightfisted in a human. Sadly, you get a good view from both angles and you prefer yours.
Cancer (June 22 - July 22) You can't tackle all of your issues in one day, but you can come pretty close. You don't shrink from attention for a change, and that's a huge leap forward. Whether you're entering the doghouse or simply performing on the rug, the spotlight is on you. Make the most of it.
Leo (July 23 - August 22) Modesty is not your strong suit. You're hogging all the credit, especially if it comes in the form of biscuits. It's not a matter of pride or ego, either. It just seems like good, old-fashioned animal logic. That's as deep as your thoughts go on the matter.
Virgo (August 23 - September 22) If you have to spend time with people, you prefer the feminine variety, at least for today. For some reason you're more likely to get table scraps and belly rubs from them than you are their more masculine counterparts. You're around plenty of both, so pick and choose carefully.
Libra (September 23 - October 22) You're all about friends and family, but for you that's every day. Today you have blinders on to everything else, though. If it doesn't take place in the doghouse, it doesn't hold your interest. You have very little flexibility about what you pay attention to -- then again, you don't need any.
Scorpio (October 23 - November 21) Deep conversations seem so meaningless to you. Don't your humans have other ways to communicate than through their mouths? They just don't pick up on smells or body language as easily as you do. You're reading them both like books, but alas, you can't tell them your interpretation. Sigh.
Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21) You don't do superficial relationships. If you're going to engage in a friendship, you dive in deep. You're beyond the questioning phase with another dog and beginning the cementing phase. Enjoy the good mood those feelings bring.
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19) No matter how cozy it is, you've had your fill of home. You just want to be somewhere else. Anywhere else. Once you make it out the doghouse door, though, you'll already have a destination in mind. You might have to spend the day imagining it.
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18) You may be going through a rough emotional phase. Even with your dog brain, though, you know it's better than having health issues. Spend the day counting your lucky stars, even if they're no more than a piece of rawhide and a rubber paper.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20) Why your performance sometimes nets you the big biscuits and other times only useless applause is a mystery you've yet to unravel. Do your humans treat musical or poetic performances in the same haphazard fashion? Not likely. Demand the same consideration.
