The Dog Park Original
Your Aquarius dog never read the manual on how dogs are supposed to act. Ruled by Saturn and Uranus, this pup is a proud original: they sleep upside down with all four legs in the air, insist on carrying their own leash and invent games no other dog in history has ever played. Predictable was never really their style, and they like it that way.
They are friendly with absolutely everyone, in their own way. An Aquarius dog greets the whole dog park like old colleagues, then wanders off alone to investigate a fascinating smell by the fence. Clever, independent and endlessly surprising, they keep life interesting for everyone lucky enough to live with them.
Five things that make your Aquarius dog tick

- Friendly free agentThey like everyone, from the dog next door to the family cat, and happily do their own thing too.
- Upside down sleeperLegs up, head dangling off the cushion, perfectly content.
- Problem solverPuzzle toys do not stand a chance against an Aquarius.
- Independent thinkerAsked to sit, they consider the request, then offer a charming lie down instead.
How to love a Aquarius dog
- Invent new games together and let them add their own rules.
- Offer puzzle toys that reward creative thinking.
- Leave room for independent play with safe toys.
- Praise the strange trick they taught themselves.
- Try something new together, like a beginner scent class.
Very Aquarius behavior
- Carries the leash to you, then refuses to hand it over for the whole walk.
- Has a best friend at the park who is, inexplicably, a very calm old pug.

Your carefully planned game of fetch may become something else entirely within minutes.
