Dragon and Dog compatibility
Dragon 龍
Dog 狗
Dragon and Dog sit directly opposite on the wheel — the classical 六冲 clash. Their instincts pull in opposite directions on the same questions: pace, risk, what "enough" means. Folklore does not call this pair doomed; it calls it expensive. The friction is real, and so is what it teaches — each is the other's bluntest mirror.
What makes it work
This pairing works when both stop trying to convert each other: divide the territory, honor the difference, and the opposition becomes range.
The Dragon in love
Generous, dazzling, occasionally exhausting. Dragons need admiration less than they need a partner unafraid to be their equal — that is the rare thing that holds them.

Devoted, steady, anxious in silence. A Dog needs reassurance spoken plainly and returns it a hundredfold in faithfulness.

Zodiac pairings describe folkloric temperament dynamics, not verdicts about real people. Two clashing signs with respect beat two harmonious ones without it, every time.
