Life is ruff when you’re four-legged and furry with a completely clueless human. Fortunately, our daily Dogscope can brighten those boneless days with a little encouragement and a helping paw.
Aries
Don't think your owner enjoys you in all your splendor. If being bathed is one of your goals, then keep it up. But if it's not, then learn to avoid the magnetic pull of a puddle.
Taurus
Wah, wah, wah. Is that the only reaction you get from your friends when you tell them your troubles? That's not a very compassionate response, is it? Throw your head back and howl anyway.
Gemini
So your scrappy friend has earned a diploma. Suddenly you're the only dog who doesn't know how to sit, shake or roll over. Keep your head up anyway. There's plenty of pride in being a roustabout.
Cancer
You want to be a good dog, but you just can't keep your mind from wandering. Sit, stay -- that works for a few seconds. Your owner must learn that you need exercise before concentration.
Leo
Your owner needs to be patient. It's just not the right time for financial dealings. What better distraction than a walk with you? Grab the leash and drag it over.
Virgo
Another dog is slowing down, and that makes your walk slower, too. Be compassionate. You won't be a young pup forever yourself. Spend your energy when you're off the leash.
Libra
Be careful what you wish for; you just may get it. Tired of spending time at home alone? You'll be out and about all day. Hard to believe, but you'll be wishing you weren't so much on the go.
Scorpio
Why do humans care so much about decorating? And redecorating and redecorating? It's beyond you. You'll have to learn to live with yet another couch.
Sagittarius
No one in the doghouse has any energy this morning. It may seem like you'll never get revved up to start the day, but all you need is the sight of a squirrel or the sound of the mailman to bring you back to life.
Capricorn
You know how to think outside the box. And as long as it doesn't involve litter, you should use that ability to your advantage. How about a new way to beg for treats, or an unusual route for your afternoon walk?
Aquarius
Another dog's obedience is inspiring to you. Keep your ears and eyes open, and you'll soon learn that tricks are a sure fire way to get what you want. Whether it's treats or praise, you'll be happy with the dividends.
Pisces
To expect you to ignore a steak is just unrealistic. You'll never convince your owner of that, though. Be prepared to spend time in the laundry room when you smell the grill.
