Andromeda DavisDog’s aren’t just man’s best friend. They’re the furry embodiment of unconditional love. We thought it would be fun to figure out which dog breeds most closely line up with the classic traits of every Zodiac sign. What’s yours?
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Aries needs a dog that can play hard and keep up with an all-day hike or epic game of Ultimate. That’s why a German Shepherd is the ideal dog for you! Strong, loyal, and fierce–just like you, Aries.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
As one of the most grounded Zodiac signs, Taurus, you need a dog that has a strong protective instinct for your territory. However, you also would prefer a gentle giant with beautiful, soft fur. Can you guess the ideal dog for you? It’s a Great Pyrenees!
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Gemini needs an intelligent, high-energy dog. You want to have a companion that will be up for any adventure, no matter where the wind takes this Air sign. An Australian Shepherd is the perfect dog for Gemini!
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Cancer would prefer a gentle, protective companion. Ideally, your dog would be great with kids and happy to be by your side all the time. A Golden Retriever is the perfect pup for this Zodiac sign.
Leo (July 23-August 22)
Leo needs a dog that looks as gorgeous as you. Preferably one you can dress up in outfits that compliment whatever you’re wearing that day. And if your dog gets a ton of attention when you go out? Bonus! Get yourself a chihuahua, Leo.
Virgo (August 23-September 22)
Virgo isn’t necessarily big on pets. You prefer a low-maintenance, quiet pet that won’t completely wreck your schedule. A rescued Greyhound spent its career working just as hard as you–and now it just wants to relax quietly with you.
Libra (September 23-October 22)
It’s tough to find the perfect dog for Libra. You want to balance all the pros and cons of every dog breed before making a decision. You would love a Corgi–medium-sized, ideal for Instagram, and a huge amount of fun.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21)
Oh, Scorpio. You’re so misunderstood. You might look scary sometimes, but you’re actually a secret marshmallow. You would love to open your home to a rescued Pit Bull. Or two!
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)
Sagittarius desperately needs a dog that can travel with you. Adventure is an important part of your life, and your dog should love exploring just as much as you do. Your ideal dog is a classic Labrador Retriever–you can pick the color!
Capricorn (December 23-January 20)
Capricorn is a high-achieving Zodiac sign, and you need a dog that can keep up with you. You’d also prefer not to have a giant dog shedding all over your home. That’s why a small, smart, energetic pup like a Jack Russell Terrier.
Aquarius (January 20-February 18)
Aquarius, you’re so ready to open your heart to any mutt, stray, and special-needs pup that needs a home. You don’t care about the dog breed, as long as you can help.
Pisces (February 19-March 20)
The ideal dog for Pisces is sweet-tempered, fun-loving, and able to help you get out of your own head. When you’re feeling down or lost in thought, a Pug will always make you laugh!
