Your Daily DogScope for August 17, 2024

August 17, 2024



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

You may not have a gilt collar and you may sit in a basket instead of a throne, but you are still royalty. Being the prince or princess of warmth beats being the emperor of the dog park any day, so don't bother competing with the leader.

Taurus

Ah, power struggles. You know them all too well. When another dog rubs you the wrong way, just move on for a change. Now there's a radical idea.

Gemini

You may think your owner's habits are written in stone, but like everything else, they're changeable. You could influence them by finding just the right way to get your message across.

Cancer

Other pooches are in an intellectual mood. You just can't stir up the dog park, no matter how hard you try. Be flexible with your expectations and you could enjoy simply sniffing the daisies instead.

Leo

It's time to put your paw down. Your being adaptable doesn't have to be the solution to every problem. Let your owner be flexible for a change, then enjoy your longer, more frequent outings.

Virgo

Just barking at someone new won't give your owner much insight into their flaws. Experiment with more constructive ways to communicate your misgivings, and your human will listen.

Libra

It's just another good day. Getting along with other dogs, having fun at the dog park -- what's not to like? On the other hand, you could use some better chow, but don't complain.

Scorpio

You know what to expect when the humans start moving the furniture. Leave them to their outbursts. You won't be missed until the dust settles, so slip out while they redecorate.

Sagittarius

If you get along well with your owners, chances are good you can connect with other humans, too. You'll have the perfect opportunity to explore that option today, so be adventurous.

Capricorn

Even the best of plans will go awry if you don't use the right approach. A light touch is more effective than pulling out all the stops, especially where begging is concerned.

Aquarius

Your day-to-day life is fine, but you could use some excitement. You know just what you need to shake things up, so share your vision with your humans.

Pisces

If you have a dream of frolicking with other dogs, you're not alone. It's not an unrealistic vision of the future, either. The dog park is just around the corner, but you'll only stumble across it if you stray from the usual path.
