The FIRE Animal

Personality types are described by the Five Element Theory and can provide additional insight into the health and well-being of my animal patients.  Today I will describe the personality of FIRE type individuals.  

nervous
desire attention
enjoys physical affection
playful at home
easily excited
short attention span
needs the company of other dogs
easily hurt by reprimand
likes to bark
tires easily

When a FIRE pet is imbalanced illness will often effect the heart and small intestine, summer and heat will be a difficult time of year and excessive joy can exacerbate symptoms of illness.  These pets will easily overheat and can become easily confused or disoriented.  Vivid dreaming, restlessness at night, and excitability can become excessive.  These pets can become overly anxious and crave ice and cold water.  Poor circulation and vascular problems are common in an imbalanced FIRE personality.
