Aries (March 21 - April 19) Don't get hysterical. It happens at the same time each day. Even if your plan is to thwart the mail, you won't get anywhere by barking incessantly. Slow and steady just may win the race.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20) You used to be threatened by all dates, but this one is different. It's that earthy smell that puts you at ease. This one could be a keeper, so it's a just as well you're getting on their good side early.
Gemini (May 21 - June 21) Does the cat have a hidden agenda? You bet she does! Steer clear for most of the day if you want to keep your fur intact. The doghouse is ideal, but under the sofa will do.
Cancer (June 22 - July 22) You just don't feel like leaving the doghouse. That's understandable after all you've been through. But holing up on your own is no fun, and certainly won't make things right with your packmates.
Leo (July 23 - August 22) Arrogance will get you nowhere. You may think you reign supreme, but other dogs want you to prove it. There may be no way to avoid a display of power, so go for the gusto.
Virgo (August 23 - September 22) All those commentators on the sidelines can just keep their opinions to themselves as far as you're concerned. Don't expect them to, though. They'll throw in their two cents worth, so block out their barking.
Libra (September 23 - October 22) Your owner is feeling sentimental. It seems like just yesterday you were a little puppy. Don't worry, you're still adorable. Humans enjoy working themselves into this kind of state every once in a while.
Scorpio (October 23 - November 21) What you and the cat don't understand is that you could be on the same side, instead of at war. That's right, you could work well together. With her brains and your bulk, the possibilities are endless.
Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21) You don't need fine linen or down to be comfortable, but a mattress would be nice. It's not clear why your human doesn't want to share, but you'll have to accept your basket at the foot of the bed.
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19) Feeling a bit flabby? All those meals under the table might be to blame. Since you can't resist the scraps, extra exercise is in order. Drag your human out the door, or slip your collar and go out alone.
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18) You hate to sleep on the job, but today don't try and fight it. You're dog tired, and for good reason. Someone else will have to do the guarding while you take a much deserved nap.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20) You could be in a boatload of trouble if you didn't have friends in high places -- namely, the Most High, your human. They'll go toe to toe for you if they have to, but don't put them in that position. Stick to your own property instead.
