Jup, that would be me.

Oh and I have neither a car nor a driving licence. Not because of some philospohy or mission, but just because of fear (of unpredictable other carowners, high speed, etc.).

I have a Gemini dog (her Venus & Mars in Taurus conjs my NN) who barks constantly at silly things like wind, plastic bags, and trees. If you don't cuddle with her when she's feeling affectionate then you'll hear a mouthful. She moves around slooowly, extremely lazy, the only thing she does fast is EAT. Her loyalty lies with food, she drives me crazy sometimes lol.

I had an Aries dog growing up that knows to charge and bite on command. It made my DSC in Aries very happy lol. She was very protective, active, loyal to no but our family. My kind of dog for sure. Both dogs are pitbulls.

I am familiar with Sandra and Daniela's bloodlines. Very nice.

I had one of Nani's Class Clown's three litters in the US before he was exported to England in 1993. I have semen from one of his sons (Am/Can Ch. JC's Jai Alai Magnum) that I will be using next year. I adored Class Clown - he was such a trouble maker in the show ring, but when he wanted to show he was spectacular.

Haven't bred a lot lately because I have been taking care of my mom.

You made me laugh because Class Clown's son (my 1st weimi) was obviously like his father. My dog was so cheeky it was hilarious. He could get out of his crate, open every door and all sorts of other things. He would bring me my wellies when he figured it was walk time I still miss him now and l last saw him 10 years ago. My ex husband forced me to get rid of him when we had kids and it broke my heart. Now i've ditched the ex, my kids are 11, 9 and almost 5 and l really want to give a weimi a good life. i have a crate already and know what i'm doing so l think it will be ok. I can spend almost all day with him and l have a staffordshire bull terrier ***** who is the sweetest little dog. She's just so kind and smiley!

Do you mind if l pick your brains a little please?
I have always preferred dogs, finding them easier to train and more loyal and dependent. Is this true of Weimi's too?
When you say you look at charts, do you look at synastry or the puppies chart alone? Can you tell anything from mine if l put it up please? Would you be willing to have a look? I'd be so grateful to you.

I looked at your website. Beautiful dogs. So sad though when they pass on and they look so full of character and such outstanding looking, intelligent dogs
I'm sorry for all your losses especially Leah at such a young age

Bear the Leo and I have the following:

Rocky- yellow lab: Pisces Sun, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter and Uranus- plus a Virgo moon, Pluto in his first house in Sag (Sag rising).

Fletcher- 18 year old Leo cat (not sure all of his aspects since we only had his birth month and he was adopted by me 14 years ago)

Phoebe- 14 year old Cancer cat (not sure about her aspects but I adopted her 8 weeks after she was hit by a car)

Mac - 2 year old Cancer Sun, Capricorn Moon kitty (he was born at our house in Germany) with Mercury in Cancer, Venus in Leo, Pluto in Sag with an Aries rising.

I get along great with all of our animals but I do find Pheobe to be a bit needy and Mac likes to get into trouble.

However, this is about Dogs and we have a doozy of one. I have natal Mars in Pisces, ruling my 6th house of work. Many of Rock's planets fall into my six house, however, he forms many square aspects to my Sag Sun / Venus and major oppositions to my natal Pluto conjunct ASC (in Virgo) aspect- which his moon conjuncts. We WORK well together and he is incredibly intelligent and loves to please. We also get along well and I have a special bond with him- probably because he is just so darn cute. He also has the Pisces stare (or out of this world gaze) down pat. I often wonder what goes through is head LOL...

What is really odd is the sometime tense relationship between him and Bear. It's not Bear that has an issue with him but Rocky always wants to play rough with Bear although he doesn't play rough with me. He also seems to want to be dominant- but he is also not neutered (we're waiting until he hits 12-14 months since he is a Lab).

I would think that he and Bear would have more in common since Rocky's Sun / Jupiter and Merc all conjunct Bear's Pisces moon. Rocky's moon also conjuncts Bear's Venus in Virgo and they have a very tight Saturn (Rocky) and Pluto (Bear) conjunction.

I often thought that astrology mattered when it came to pets but look at me- I have two Cancer cats (they complete my T-square) and a Pisces dog. I wouldn't change a thing. I don't notice the astro issues because I only notice THEM. From my point of view and how I observe my husband, we care more about nurturing them that what they are (not that anyone here doesn't and that isn't what I am insinuating).

I didn't choose the cats based on their signs. The first two I adopted when I worked as an ER vet tech many years ago. Rocky came from an awesome breeder at the right time in our lives.

I can easily explain the issues that we have with Rocky;

1) He is only 8 months old
2) He's a Labrador
3) He's a Labrador
4) He is still learning
5) He's a Labrador
6) He isn't neutered yet

As for some of the issues with Bear- well, I am home more often than Bear because of the nature of his job (Army). I spend more time with all of the animals, especially when he is in the field, deployed or TDY (temporary duty assigment).

I would set up the puppy's chart to try and match with what the owner's expectations would be - show dog, obedience dog, hunting dog, lap dog (lol)

I would do synastry to determine which dogs I would keep. I always liked a Leo ascendant for a show dog and it also helped bond to me because my moon is in Leo.

I love male dogs. I find they especially bond to female owners. Female dogs are, well to put it mildly...bitches. Not that I haven't loved my girls, but they can be real hormonal.

Storm was a dog that the owner wanted to hunt with. He had a Sagittarius ascendant that went well with his owner's Leo sun.

Leah was my first venture into importing dogs. She came from Australian, English and American bloodlines. She escaped the yard five days after I moved into my mini-farm. She found a hole under the fence and decided to track and chase deer. Unfortunately, she found a semi-truck on the highway instead. It was devastating for me as well as her Australian co-owners.

I would look at your boy's chart. Also post yours. I know I have seen it, but don't have time to look for it right now.

Our Lab was a rescue, and I wondered if he'd been trained as a service dog, because he was incredibly clever, and so well behaved - except on walks. (Which would nix the service dog thing.) He lifted his leg on my dad's sleeping bag, when he came to visit (Dad wasn't too thrilled, but Mum laughed ).

One of our cats is an Aries, who is getting older, and worrying me a bit. He freaks most people out, but he's mostly a sweetie.

Minnie and Teasel are Gemini twins, born on June 4th, 1995 (I think - I hate that I'm old enough to be forgetting these things - I sometimes say 1996). Their Sun is in the same sign as my Moon, Venus and South Node. Minnie is sweet, sociable but flighty - she doesn't snuggle. Teasel likes laps, or whatever part of your body you'll let her curl up on.

I went today! To see the pups! omg 3 boys with typically well-bred length in their ears (you know what l mean) were there... and l saw both Sire and b1tch . The b1tch had a very good, strong looking head which l absolutely loved and the Sire was a wonderfully laid back dog. So l chose the puppy with the mothers head. She is out of Gunalt Harris Tweed. Nice inter US/UK breeding and Sandra is the most delightful lady, so i'm really happy.

The only thing i'm concerned with is that l pick up my pup mid week and he will already be 11 weeks old. I'm worried about bonding and socialising whilst he's that 'sweet spot' of being not too fixed and domineering!
Do you think it will be ok? He's coming into a house with 3 kids, a staffy and a cat!

Sandra said they were all born during the day but didn't know the exact time or hour.
