“The Year of the Dog” is the 11th in the 12-year cycle of the Chinese zodiac. According to Chinese zodiac analysis, individuals born in the Year of the Dog are usually independent, sincere, loyal, and decisive. We wish everyone good luck, joy, happiness, and great success in the Year of the Dog. We wish every parent, teacher, and student a great Chinese New Year!
