CHINESE ZODIAC COMPATIBILITY
Dog compatibility with the 12 Chinese zodiac signs
Are you a Dog, or is the other person? Here is what the Chinese tradition of the animals says about each match, as a couple, as friends or at work. No percentage: two people are worth more than a number.

Dog and Dog: the mirror
Same sign: you recognise each other at once, with the same impulses and the same blind spots. The bond is easy, but nobody balances the other out.
