The Dog is a steady worker who becomes a trusted and valued member of any community. They are defensive where friends and family are concerned and refuse to listen to warnings when others are in danger. When truly frightened, Dogs react unpredictably. Their rare displays of intense anger is usually justified however. They easily forgive and forget.
Dogs are usually very active and like all types of outdoor sports.
Although they are very generous and loyal, they often have romantic difficulties throughout their lifetimes unless their partner is very understanding and patient. The Dog, being traditionally a protector and guardian of property, represents the materials and wealth of the home, rather than the people within it. The last of the twelve astrological signs, the Pig is the symbol of completion. Their ambitions are not so much with their current career, but with the benefits that they reap at the end of their careers. The Pig personality looks forward to retirement.
