This week, you’re tackling things head-on.  

Capricorn, you could be determined to get your crate looking spick and span. It's possible that you have guests arriving, perhaps including a young pup that always rummages through your most prized possessions (rest in peace to your squeaky hamburger). It's also possible that you're doing a deep clean to organize your toys and donate some old things make your space more cozy and enjoyable.  

Later in the week, you could stumble upon a new type of treat you want to try, and there's a considerable amount of coaxing to do. This treat may only be available online or at the farther pet store. It might feel like you've bitten off more than you can chew—well…you wish—but if you take small nibbles, you'll be able to learn just how to get your parents to go out of their way for this delicious reward.

This week, you are admired by others.  

You might feel it's time to make some serious plans with your dog park bestie. Aquarius, you could be considering a sleepover or a road trip to the lake. It's also possible that your friend is moving to a new neighborhood. You need to figure out how to plan your play dates instead of just stumbling into each other at the park.  

Later this week, Aquarius, you might be pondering the true meaning of a partnership. This could be your connection with your parents or a friendship built on playdates. This is a very good time to dig deeper and examine whether you feel the responsibilities are shared and openly discuss the future of this connection.

This week, you’re changing directions.  

Someone in your family needs your assistance. It's possible they need extra cuddles, a long and relaxing walk, or a day to sleep in to get through the end of the week. Pisces, this individual doesn't look for help very often. They might have a quiet demeanor, and maybe they don’t even ask for it, but you sense they need it. You can strengthen this bond by being open and attentive to their needs, and maybe don’t launch yourself at them in the morning to wake them up.  

Later this week, you could see something on your walk that suddenly inspires you to change a long-held routine. This might mean that you start your morning with a run before breakfast, or you try scheduling your naps instead of just snoozing whenever you feel like it. You might consider Pisces, you could rearrange your den for a better feng shui flow.

This week, you’re ready to fly.  

You might be assessing how you’ve grown over the last couple of years. Aries, you could see progress in some training areas like leash walking but lament some missed opportunities, things that you shied away from because you lacked confidence or felt the timing wasn’t right, like greetings with other dogs. This is a good time to plan your attack for the future. Consider starting up with your trainer again or taking more trips outside to practice.

Aries, later this week, you are on the brink of doing something that’s outside your comfort zone, and you might be trying to mentally psych yourself up before you take that step. Maybe starting an agility class or even going from training to competition! You could look to a dog whose pawprints are worth following, whether a dog you know from your neighborhood or a star from the dog channel your parents put on for you when they leave for work. You’re teetering on the brink of greatness.

This week, resources become apparent and available.  

Slow and steady wins the race. Your zoomies may be fast, but the circling will set you behind. While you might feel like the emphasis right now is on “slow,” this is a good week to look at the progress you’ve made. Taurus, this could be a journey to walk better on the leash, being better at sharing in the dog park, or simply finding all of your lost toys.  

Taurus, you might try to pull the family together for a training session so you can all get on the same page. This could be like herding cats (and you’d rather be chasing them). Everybody has their own opinion about how to practice and what methods to implement. One parent might be treat heavy (you love this idea) and the other far more reserved. By expressing what you all feel, you can come together as a group.

This week, you’re getting a clear picture.  

Since your birthday is near (woohoo!), you might be looking at the past year (or years) and seeing how far you’ve moved forward from that scared, shy pup at the shelter. Gemini, there could be areas where you have a reason to celebrate, like coming out of your shell at the dog park, yet there are still some gaps and many things you want to do, explore, sniff, and experience. These next few weeks are a good time to focus on your goals for the next month and year.  

Later this week, some training-related communication might be lost, or what you do get simply doesn’t make any sense. Gemini, it’s possible that because of the jargon, rushing, or phrasing of a sentence you aren’t able to make heads or tails of it. You’ll need to get some clarification on this before moving forward, or your training goals may be set back.

This week, things are improving by leaps and bounds.  

You could be looking into honing your patience through practical exercises. This is a good week to slow down and listen before reacting to that dog barking (they might just be playing!), or listening to yourself when things seem off (there’s definitely something up with that person in the big hat, even if your parents don’t think so). Cancer, you might look into meditation to help you. This could be in a quiet thoughtful sunbeam or on a blanket next to the water by the park, listening to the sounds of nature.

Later in the week, with a little finagling, you can get something you want much easier. Maybe you don’t like to haggle, but the other dog is expecting you to suggest what you want to trade for their pristine stick. If they’ve snagged a really great treasure like a free ball left in the park, be sure you’re ready to negotiate. Cancer, your small trades may pay off—start small.

This week, you’re ready to step into something new.  

There might be some things in your neighborhood that you want to change. This could be a great time to get your community together for a dog-friendly park cleanup with your parents, or getting your friends to sign a petition for a new water fountain in the dog run. Leo, it’s possible you’re doing some charity work through a local rescue, like a fundraising contest or event. This week, you’re helping to make your town a better place.

Later this week, a training opportunity awaits you that is outside your familiar territory. This could involve working on a behavior you haven’t touched before, or maybe even helping a friend. Leo, it's also possible that someone is asking you to perform a trick or cue that's beyond what you anticipated, but with proper training and practice, you can certainly rise to the occasion.

This week, it’s time to be in charge.  

Today, you could find yourself chosen as the leader of the dog park pack, whether you like it or not. A dog is recommending you to lead a game of chase at the park, be a demonstration dog for your agility class’ run, or some other significant role. Virgo, this is not the time to hide in your crate. You’re sniffing out what needs to be done, so you might as well take the leash and lead the way.  

Later this week, it will be very easy for you to go above and beyond for another dog. Virgo, you’re feeling generous and have plenty of energy right now, but if you're using it all up on others without getting any playtime or treats in return, you could soon find yourself feeling exhausted. This week, try to find a little bit of balance and don't hesitate to ask for your fair share.  

Lucky lavor: BEEF!

This week, you are free to roam and explore, just like the adventurous pup you are!  

Libra, you might feel playful, and want to sniff new scents but is confined to a fenced yard. That “yard” could be related to your family not trusting your off leash skills for an adventure (you have been known to take a little adventurous sprint) or it could be a sense of not having enough chew toys or puzzles to do the things you want to do. This is the perfect time to find a balance between your training and playtime, and it might mean scaling back on your plans to make room for more enjoyable activities. Practice makes perfect, Libra, and you’ll find that with it comes more adventures with your parents.  

Later in the week, a dog could bark to you about the exciting adventures they're planning. With your issues earlier this week, you may feel envious when they talk about a cool hike to the lake they're going on or their plans to travel for their FAST CAT competition. Instead of feeling left out, consider how you might be able to join them on their thrilling escapades (if you’re invited, of course), or how to get your parents to hear how cool this sounds and take you on your own. Libra, the Universe is showing you how to break free from your imaginary fence and embark on a super exciting journey.

This week, there’s nothing in your way.  

Scorpio, you might be feeling that the return on your hard training has been a bit underwhelming. So, you might want to kick it into high gear. But remember, this comes with some risks, like setting yourself back on your leash walking, so this is a good time to ponder the question of working and practicing versus securing your favorite spot on the couch. It may take more than a day to see results, but now is the perfect time to start sniffing around.  

Later this week, you have the opportunity to take a lead role at the dog park, but it's a bit outside your comfort zone. Scorpio, this might mean that the group is quite large or you're not used to being in charge of the chase sessions. But there's a great chance that you will shine brilliantly. So, when a dog suggests that you start the game and become the captain of the pack, consider embracing the challenge!

This week, a connection could get serious.  

You and your dog park bestie could be getting serious. Sagittarius, you might consider one-on-one playtimes or hikes, or rescheduling your dog park visits at the same time. If you're sniffing for love, you might encounter a new dog who is willing to take their time to really sniff out your true scents.  

Later this week, it's possible you have a fun adventure coming up with your parents when you realize that your house rental isn’t dog friendly. Or your seatbelt broke and your crate won’t fit in the car. Be prepared for some obstacles this week, including traffic jams and long lines at the pet store.
