In a Taurus dog, the characteristics of calm and patient come to the fore immediately. It is a real family dog that radiates calmness and will not let itself be easily upset. They do tend to be reserved towards strangers, but after a while they can become the greatest of friends.

The dog quickly becomes attached to toys, set habits and tasty snacks. However, due to its big appetite, you should take care that the dog does not become overweight.

A Taurus is a true herding animal so they don't like being left alone for too long. Your dog is loyal and will not get angry easily, but when this does happen they can stay angry for a long time. This sounds stubborn, but you can also see it as a determined dog. The constellations Virgo, Capricorn, Cancer and Pisces are a good combination in that they appreciate Taurus' genial nature.

The following gemstones fit well with the characteristics of a Taurus: Agate, Aventurine, Citrine, Malachite, Pyrite and Rose Quartz.
