I actually did have two questions with the same sign at first, but then I thought that might not be fair, since if you didn't know the first one, you probably wouldn't know the second one, either. Meaning the universal you.

Can't try the QoD, because even though I could probably name most of the 12 from the placemats at our local Chinese hash palace, I don't know the legend behind it.

This is hard for me, because dogs don't do astrology. Heck, until the creation of the Four-Footed Critters Club and Opera Appreciation Society, only paper dogs had birthdays. (I am pleased to report, however, that the FFCC&OAS now has 40 members, many of whom have picked out birthdays for the first time in their lives.) Here are my guesses, though, based on two-footers I have known and constellations I have learned.
Spoiler
1. Libra
2. Cameleopardolus
3. Pisces
4. Scorpio
5. Leo

QoD: "I will walk away, Meredith." I have not studied the Chinese zodiac. I am a brownhound, not a Sharpei. If I had to make a guess, I would say Evil Squirrel, because those things are pretty easy to trick.
