Oh, I hear ya about the walks. Rocky goes bonkers and he is so strong (almost 80lbs and is of the English Lab persuasion LOL) that when he pulled the leash it cut into my hand (I was holding it wrong). He will sit on command- which is almost always in German although he also responds to me when I ask for kisses in Spanish LOL. Bear thinks I'm nuts but I learned most command in German plus living in Germany and going on walks with a German dog trainer kind of reinforced that.

I will try and take a look at the charts tomorrow. First thing that strikes me is all of the air in the little guys chart. I wouldn't worry about the age of 11 weeks. I don't necessarily subscribe to the theory of a puppy having to go to its home at 7-8 weeks. Additional socialization with mom and littermates teaches a dog its place in the hierarchy. If a puppy goes to its home before mom and littermates have reinforced "bite inhibition" and "submission" to authority, there can be more socialization problems than a puppy going at eleven weeks. Also, with all of the air, this fella will be able to adapt quite nicely.

I will talk to you again after I've had a chance to look at the charts.

Just so you know, between 10am and 4pm the moon moved from 4 - 7' gemini (not much!)

I think all the air in this fellas chart will fill a missing link in your chart. He should be real adaptable.

Have you looked at the draconic chart? I have often had many links with my dogs to my draconic chart. An animal psychic once told me that two of my dogs were soul mates who had been with me in several lifetimes. My Scorpio stellium becomes Aquarius in the draconic chart and you could see the "soul" aspects there.

Your question should be 'does he need me', but being earth you're subconciously leaning towards 'what will i get from this'.

Actually I know a person who thinks their pet border collie is there as something they can use to better their self-esteem and they lack earth completely.

Peri....yay for the Virgo/Aries pooch! Yes, I am like that dog and have no prblem admitting it

I wish I knew the exact birth time of my familiar, Miso Soup (my cat). All I got was her birth day. She's a Leo sun and I adore her, though she drove me nuts and for the time being she lives on my parent's 5 acre property since I can't have a cat outdoors and she needs her FREEDOM. But she visits me in dreams sometimes

MVM, cool! Your cat Miso sounds really sweet and i'm glad you are a responsible owner

just to point out that dogs are born in batches, and these two were minutes apart, but could not have been more different if they had come from different planets. both were sweet natured, but one was black and about 60 pounds when grown, and as stupid as he was sweet. and HYPER. mine was the runt, and her breeding showed in her coat, which was a medley of everything from white through buff, gold, red, brown and black. she was much like an undersized aussie shepherd...in fact that same ex BF now has a dog who looks just like her! and is a purebred aussie. this litter were born of a golden retriever mother and a black lab/wolf/something else father.

dog 2, the multicolour, was hyper very seldom, extremely smart (i only had to teach her anything once and it stuck) but never learned to live happily indoors.

so i wouldn't say that astrology is QUITE as telling with dogs...i never did the chart for this litter and can't even remember what month they were born, but they were VERY different in pretty much every way from each other and as i said, born minutes apart.
