Scorpio: German Shepherd
These classically gorgeous dogs are known to be fearless, resourceful and passionate — taking on classic Scorpio traits. They’re great leaders and keepers of secrets. While they are brave and come across noble, they are secretly mushy and emotional on the insides (just never tell a Scorpio you know that about them).

Though the Scorpio/German Shepherd may be attractive as heck — they’re not always quick to trust and can be secretive and sometimes even violent when provoked. They can be jealous and not always great at processing their feelings (which they secretly have a lot of).

The darker side of Sagittarius/Corgi
So cute, so stubborn. The Sadge/Corgi can have a tendency to make promises they may not always fulfill, exercise impatience and say/do what they want (no matter how undiplomatic). They don’t do well with feeling trapped.

Aquarius: Greyhound
Progressive, original and very independent, Greyhounds are a hit with friends — but value their alone time. They are an intellectual breed — fueled less on emotion and more on facts — they’re often fighting for a cause. This very gentle dog also makes for a great listener.
The darker side of Aquarius/Greyhound
The Aquarius/Greyhound does not enjoy limitations or broken promises — they can be temperamental and uncompromising as they don’t love when people disagree with them. But good news: they’re never boring.

Pisces: Pomeranian
Emotionally needy and physically lazy, Pomeranians are the perfect breed to empathize with you and help you feel whole again. They’re compassionate, creative, intuitive and surprisingly wise. They’re big into the witchy and love love (and probably you).
The darker side of Pisces/Pomeranian
Ok but while these fluffy creatures may be all about dreams and magic, they’re also fearful, overly trusting (borderline gullible) and live to escape reality. They’re feelings are forever fragile and they too often fall into victim roles.
