YEAR OF THE DOG

It appears the Lunar New Year has started, and it is Year of the Dog! Or as dear Mistress MJ at Infomaniac declared it Year of the Bitch! Here at the Casa our official pups are all but elated that it's Year of the Dog!

So  for the most part, according to predictions, the Earth Dog should encourage kindness and acceptance in 2018. The year 2018 is represented by the Dog of the Earth element, with traits associated with this variety of Dog include, "stable, honest, practical, industrious, prudent, reliable, kind, and loyal." Does this mean that the year ahead will be easier to get through than 2017, Year of the Rooster? Apparently. The year, in general apparently, is slated to be of good fortune, which the Dog year is a time of fairness and equality. Controversial issues are given their due, revolutions are successful, politics are liberal, and political oppression is opposed. Integrity and honesty are the values that lead to success under Dog’s watchful and just influence." Sort of like when a dog successfully rolls over, they get a treat. Fairness is a key characteristic here. And there will be a balance between working and playing hard. You'll definitely want to find a sunny spot to nap in.

Buster even made me do some Lunar New Year visual displays at the store.
 BUT.......Is this going to be a beneficial year for Donald Trump? Or WILL the Dog Year will be an unlucky year for the only American president who has no dog? According to  his ex, Ivana Trump, the current United States president is not a dog lover. This explains a lot, why I never liked him.

Regardless....Have a great Lunar New Year all!

  1. Well,if it is year of the bitch, I should fit right in. Although, I don't know I can compete with the cuteness of your dogs.

  6. It's only just started, and Year of the Dog has already warmed my heart. I guess Trump figures between him and others, there is already enough mongrels in the White House!!!!

  7. Abby wants you to know that EVERY year is the year of The Dog. Tar asks what's a year? slurps and wags :-)

  8. Buster looks soooo cute! Of course, he always does. I love the displays, but I doubt this will be a good year for that rabid mongrel in the White House. My God, it's going to take ServePro about four months to clean that place out once he's led away in handcuffs.

  9. What a cute post Mistress! Why you can just see the glow coming from Buster and companies faces. I am deeply skeptical of people who dislike dog and cats.

  12. Since I live with three annoying cats, I'm actually welcoming the Year of the Dog. Should I be barking?

    I luv the Lunar New Year visual displays.

  13. I was born in a 'dog year', and though I love dogs (well, ALL animals, actually) I have an even greater propensity towards pussycats. No matter. I've got hopes for the next 12 months or so as, looking back over my life's dog years, they have generally been ones which were kinder to me.

    Those three doggies above all look so intelligent, as though they know what they want to say yet are frustrated by being denied the means to be able to communicate it. Love 'em all!

    1. I have had mostly dogs my whole life, with exemption to one lovable black cat I loved dearly. I seem to be more a dog person. I send you many good wishes in this lunar New Year my friend.

    2. 'Ta' very mucho, M.M. - and the same (or even more!) to you.
