October 2007

	March 21 - April 19 Aries Dogs born under the sign of the Ram are adventurous and active so be prepared to keep up. The good times continue this month for dogs with the Ram sign. Whether frolicking in the autumn leaves or rolling in some rotting jack-o'-lanterns, Aries dogs will find fun around every corner. Consider spoiling your Aries pup with a new canvas dog collar since the old collar is probably worn out from all recent romping adventures.
	April 20 - May 20 Taurus Taurean dogs have calm dispositions and are full of love and affection for those around them. Love is in the air for Taurus dogs! October may be the month of Halloween, but your Taurean pup will find romance amongst all the spookiness. Just be careful that your little one's love interest doesn't turn out to be a witch or warlock under those good looks. Also, take it easy on the trick-or-treat candy — any sudden changes in your dog's diet can result in some serious tummy troubles.
	May 21 - June 21 Gemini Gemini dogs are social and possess inquisitive natures that help them learn tricks quickly. Dogs born under the sign of the Twins will be happiest in the house during chilly October weather. Instead of joining the trick-or-treaters, try making your house the scariest on the street and hand out yummy candy with your Gemini dog. Your pup will love the new haunted house look and will get lots of attention in a devil dog costume with a bright red cape and horns (stick on tail not required). A naughty red dog collar will top off the look.
	June 22 - July 22 Cancer Dogs under the Crab sign are sensitive and loving — they truly fit the role of a furry baby. You'll be playing the lap dog to your Cancer pup this month as you just won't be able to say no to those puppy dog eyes. Try not to turn into too much of a softy for your convincing Cancer dog who will want a bite of all your fall treats. Your tasty slice of pumpkin pie might be fine for sharing with other people, but not for pups. Try whipping up some Pumpkin Patch Paws as an alternative treat.
	July 23 - August 22 Leo Lookout for these drama queens! Leos are extroverts who love to be the centre of attention. Leo dogs could turn into scaredy cats this October. Usually brave and outgoing, Leo pups become cowardly lions as people and pups alike take to the streets in frightening and confusing Halloween costumes. When the loveable Dachshund down the street turns up dressed in a hot dog bun and mustard, what will your Leo dog do — try to take a bite, or sniff his bum?
	August 23 - September 22 Virgo Virgo dogs make clean, admiring pets who find joy in working with their owner. Don't skimp out on the details this October as your Virgo dog will notice even the smallest missing piece. Your little angel may turn into a raging demon if you forget to add the wings on his or her cute bumblebee Halloween costume. A new leash will make the daily dog walk a whole lot more fun, and trendy, for you and your Virgo dog this month. A little extra effort on your part goes a long way for your Virgo pup.
	September 23 - October 22 Libra Pretty Libran dogs are generally easy to get along with and tend to be big flirts. Think in pairs this month. Your Libra dog will want some company for all activities in October. Whether it's offering a cozy lap to sleep on or organizing a play date with the dog next door, your Libran pup will relish in the company of others. Double up on your dog's Halloween costume as well; two dogs will look great as a bride and groom, or if your Libran pup is an only fur baby, dress him or her in a costume that matches your getup.
	October 23 - November 21 Scorpio Mysterious Scorpio dogs are extremely loyal to their owners and can have hypnotic qualities. Scorpio dogs are in their element this October. The turning leaves, pumpkin patches and ghoulish Halloween decorations create the perfect atmosphere for dogs born under the sign of the Scorpion. Your dog will love to strut his or her stuff in a daring spiked collar during cool autumn days. A wicked Halloween costume will look fantastic as you roam the streets with your Scorpio hound this Halloween — consider a Dracula or witch costume.
	November 22 - December 21 Sagittarius Intelligent and brave, Sagittarian dogs are always keen for adventure and lighthearted fun. Sagittarian dogs will be especially sharp-minded and curious this October. Let your pup explore the jack-o'-lanterns glowing on your front porch and inspect that strange looking hay-stuffed man propped up on the lawn. Your brave Sagittarian dog will want to check out all the new household decorations to make sure all is safe and sound. Consider rewarding your smart dog's loyalty and bravery with a new harness and leash set.
	December 22 - January 19 Capricorn Capricorn dogs are reliable and faithful. They will not ask for a biscuit, they will demand it. Hard-nosed Capricorn dogs will want to earn some extra treats this month. Naturally practical minded Capricorns will be able to convert their furry cuteness into tasty rewards if you give them the chance to work for their cookies. Transform your backyard into a haunted labyrinth for trick-or-treaters and let your costumed Capricorn dog lead adventurers through the maze. Your pup will delight the Halloween visitors and feel a sense of accomplishment for earning his or her dog treats.
	January 20 - February 18 Aquarius Quirky Aquarian dogs can act pretty crazy sometimes, but there’s reason behind the madness. Crazy times and general madness will make your Aquarius dog all the more entertaining this month. Dress your pup in a happy clown or over-the-top flower costume this Halloween as he or she will fit the kooky role perfectly. Be careful walking Aquarian dogs in October, as their free-spirited attitudes could lead them to chase anything onto the street and into busy traffic. Make sure your pup is wearing a secure dog collar with identification tags.
	February 19 - March 20 Pisces Dogs born under this fish sign are highly intuitive and will be able to read your moods. Pisces pups will be full of youthful energy this month. Organize play time with a cute puppy or let the neighbourhood kids throw the ball in the park for your Pisces dog (under supervision, of course). After long days of running and playing, your dog will look forward to a cuddle or tummy rub, so try to offer some extra love and attention.
