Dog: Here's what your Chinese Horoscope has in store for you for 2026
Dog
For the Dog, 2026 is a continuation of what you started in 2025 rather than having to start over, but that doesn’t mean you can’t achieve success.
In fact, this is an extremely favourable year for you, as the Dog is one of the few Chinese Zodiac animals that gets along with the Horse very well.
Despite this, watch out for some peculiar and unexpected challenges on your path this year that you will need to overcome.
There is something Karmic about these challenges though, and once you have solved the problem, or overcome the challenges, you will understand why they happened, and what they released, during your next phase later this year. On the money front, you can look to invest rather than to spend.
For Dogs in relationships, work will be needed to help keep a good balance, but success and happiness can be yours if you do so. Travel is highlighted this year too, so use that to recreate bonds.
Singles, make sure the person you meet is really who they say they are before you commit. Remember, with the karmic energy for you this year, it’s a little like a test, so make sure that if you like someone, they have similar values to you.
There will be opportunities, but make sure they are genuine before you invest your love or your money!
