Individuals born under the sign of the Dog in the Chinese horoscope share certain characteristics. This horoscope sign stands for fidelity and devotion to family. A Dog is logical and devoted, as well as loyal. Dogs are always on guard, and as a result, many have developed a slightly pessimistic outlook. This Chinese horoscope sign is great at spotting danger before it gets too close, but people born under this sign need to learn how to relax and worry about themselves instead of others all the time.

Dogs make great mates because of their loyalty and devotion, but since they neglect their own needs, they might find themselves becoming resentful of their partners. Good communication and a willingness to ask for attention sometimes will go a long way towards improving the Dog's relationships. Some people may find the Dog's attentions a bit stifling or overwhelming.

At work, Dogs are willing to put their all into a task. They do not like big changes or adventures, and would prefer a steady routine. Once Dogs start a task, they finish it, which makes them very reliable employees.

The Chinese horoscope relies on a 12 year cycle, so the year of the Dog occurs every 12 years.

Every sign also has a 5 part elemental cycle, meaning that every fifth year of the Dog is a Metal Dog year. The element associated with the year of your birth affects how your Chinese horoscope sign determines your personality characteristics.

A person born under the Chinese horoscope sign of the Dog and tempered by the Metal element is a real "Type A" personality. Metal Dogs put a lot of pressure on themselves and have high standards for their work. They can be perfectionists, and also expect others to follow through on what they have promised.
