Fire lends the Dog sign a high degree of dynamism because of which he/she is able to seize significant opportunities in life and even find ways to create them, when none is naturally forthcoming. This trait is quite unique among Dogs who for all their courage and honesty are not very good at taking initiative, whether out of a lack of worldly ambition or a deeply-ingrained idealism. The Fire Dog on the other hand is quick to spot opportunities and even though they would still not take recourse to deceitful means, they do not see any contradiction in living an honest and active life.
