Monkey and Dog Compatibility

♥♥♥♥♡Solid match

The clever, talented Monkey meets the loyal, honest Dog.

The Monkey and the Dog together

Where you shine

With a dependable Dog backing them up, the Monkey feels free to try new things. Starting a new job or tackling unfamiliar work, they serve as steady guides for each other.

Where you bump heads

The Monkey's clever way of smoothing over details can sound like a fib to the honest Dog. Telling things straight, even small things, makes the Dog's trust grow stronger.

Your energies

The Dog's Earth feeds the Monkey's Metal, so the Dog tends to give and the Monkey tends to gain strength.

The Monkey is 申 and the Dog is 戌 among the 12 earthly branches. The Monkey and the Dog share a season. With Rooster they make up autumn's Metal (banghap).

In points, the Monkey and the Dog start from 3 (shared season +0.5) and end at 3.5, which is level 4 of 5.

Monkey and Dog as friends, partners and coworkers

  • Friendship

    Like energies that gather in the same season, you share tastes and moods. Being together is easy and fun.

  • Love and marriage

    Your daily rhythms and tastes match well. Because you are alike, you may both miss the same things, so make room for other points of view.

  • Work and business

    You work in similar ways and move in sync. You may share the same blind spots, so agree on a quick review step.
