THE NATIVE INDIAN DOG

In the past he was the servant / soldier who guarded the tribe's homes and protected them from the surprise of a sudden attack. The Dog helped during hunts and during cold winters when there was no horse yet. It is a symbol of loyalty, unconditional love, protection and service. Its medicine embodies the loving kindness of the best friend and the protective energy of the guardian.
If your medicine animal is the dog, your devotion to your family and friends is endless. You get great satisfaction from showing service to others, by offering your hand to a friend in need. A kind word, a caress, an average act of kindness much more to you than material things. However, there is a risk of coming too close to the other side: allowing people to take advantage of you because of your gentle nature.

The dog reminds you that your loyalty should always be to her, to your own truth. It reminds you that respecting and honoring all that God has done will allow you to lead a clean life by following the sacred way.
