Your Daily DogScope for October 17, 2021

Life is ruff when you’re four-legged and furry with a completely clueless human. Fortunately, our daily Dogscope can brighten those boneless days with a little encouragement and a helping paw.

Aries

Being impulsive can only get you in trouble. Avoid friction by being calm, cool and calculated instead. If you can't pull that off, stay by your owner's side, or better yet, on the leash.

Taurus

Your human is one of your biggest attachments, and that extends way beyond the leash. You'll show once and for all you know how to stick around, with or without it. Enjoy the freedom that brings you.

Gemini

If you want to be taken more seriously by your humans, then start acting a bit smarter. You don't have much hope of pulling off an intellectual pose, but you can do simple things like sitting and staying for big effect, not to mention biscuits.

Cancer

You can't beg your way into the treat bag today. You have to earn it. Once you do a trick or two, come when you're called a few times and resist the couch, you'll know you deserve it.

Leo

An enthusiastic reception from you is a thing of beauty, but you don't have to save it for your favorite celebrity. When another human crosses your threshold today, go full stop.

Virgo

It's time to get organized after a busy weekend. Your blanket and basket could use some attention, for starters. Once you scratch them into shape, start tidying up your toys.

Libra

You might have a few annoying details to deal with. Okay, more than a few. But when you're in your basket thinking back on it all, you'll know that they all added up to a great day.

Scorpio

Watch yourself, because no one else is doing it for you. The short leash is a thing of the past, and the long one isn't quite a much fun as you always imagined -- at least not just yet. Give yourself the day to warm up to it.

Sagittarius

You're changing, but the growth is too small to notice on a daily basis. Remember when you were afraid to go further than your own backyard? You're not visiting foreign countries or anything, but you're far from the frightened puppy you once were.

Capricorn

Not every day can be an easy day. You have some difficult dogs to deal with, but nothing you can't handle. You don't have to watch out for the worst in doggy business, just the most annoying.

Aquarius

Curbing your impulses to get biscuits? What an extraordinary concept. Experiment with it a bit. You may have found the perfect solution to your most persistent power struggle.

Pisces

It's impossible to mind your own business, but getting caught up in the frenzy of other dogs is just a waste of energy. Remaining above the fray may be a fantasy but don't dive right in.
