My story
PACK Academy works with Sanzhi Animal Shelter to help stray dogs find their home efficiently. Our team assess and select dogs from the shelter, and bring them back to PACK to conduct a further training.Tan Tan is one of the cases. Tan Tan was a baby, under one-year-old, when she came to the shelter,it’s been six years, and she finally joined PACK! With a spirit of resilience, Tan Tan is passionate, energetic, and people-friendly. After completing a series of training and observation for more than a month, We are excited to announce that Tan Tan is now interning at a halfway house! She’s ready for her permanent family.
Personality
Well, Tan Tan is into “hot dogs”, she becomes proactive towards cute or handsome dogs... :D Tan Tan has her own thoughts, for example, she loves to stay at where she’s familier with, she insists on walking her own way. Just because Tan Tan is very determined doesn’t mean that she’s a tough case. As long as giving her clear, patient guidance, Tan Tan gets the order and will be happy to follow. In general, Tan Tan is just sooo adorable!

My Behavior

Tolerance Levels
At PACK Academy, we socialize our dogs by exposing them to different stimuli and recording their tolerance levels for each one. These oservations help us understand the dogs better, which then helps us find suitable homes for them.
Strangers
Tan Tan approaches strangers, friendly.
Dogs
Tan Tan is into male, handsome dogs~ She’s not interested in female dogs. (Sure she is...)

Pretty okay. Tan Tan comes close and sniffs when cats are nearby, often gets rejections.
