Born in Year of the Dog? What are Your Auspicious Gifts?

"Dogs are man's best friend," as the saying goes, and this is true of people born under the sign of the Dog in the Chinese zodiac as well.  They are loyal, honest, kind and sincere, and will stop at nothing to serve the person or people most important to them. This comes from altruism, not from obsequiousness or a desire to impress.

The Dog may come across as restrained from the outside, but it leads a rich inner life and is a person in charge of his or her own path. Serious and careful, often lost in thought, Dogs appreciate their daily encounters but are also capable of entertaining themselves for hours on end, pondering anything from puzzles to philosophy and beyond..
