Bow Wow!

Stump the Sussex Spaniel wowed the Westminster Dog Show Judges yesterday and won Best of Show. Stump is almost 70 years old in Dog Years, having just celebrated his 10th Human Year Birthday.

Found his possible birth date on a website:

Stump the Gorgeous Dog
Dec. 1, 1998. (no place listed)

Sun 10 Sagittarius; Moon Aries or Taurus; NN 26 Leo

Stump is going through many marvelous transits and progressions right now. First a mutual reception transit of Jupiter to Uranus. Both transiting Mars and Jupiter are conjunct his natal Uranus in Aquarius. And transiting Uranus is conjunct his natal Jupiter in Pisces with Saturn opposing which might explain in part his success as an old man. (Well, that part is written in the natal chart with Spotlight Loving Ham Leo North Node trining natal Saturn in Aries).

He can't keep his natural Venusian charms to himself. His Progressed Venus is at 30 Sagittarius conjunct the Aries Point (Success in the outer world) and transiting Pluto (Fame).

An old Virgo Phys Ed Teacher who taught Geriatric Patients told me that the Sadge's retain their sporty, youthful glow way beyond the rest of us. Guess she knew what she was talking about. Stump is in between his Nodal Opposition and his Jupiter Return.

Stump went into retirement after he won Best of Show at the Westminster in 2004. Retirement didn't agree with him, he got sick and wasted away to almost nothing. His progressed Sun was passing over his natal Venus in Sagittarius just near the time of his last win and his brush with death.
