The Bodyguard
Adopt Wei Wei

My story
Wei Wei was brought to PACK Taiwan when he was just a young dog. He spent his early days roaming the streets without a home. Other dogs picked on him so he had to stand up for himself. His rescuer brought him to us so he could live a less stressful life. Now he's looking for a forever home!
Personality
Wei Wei is a confident dog who may look tough on the outside, but he's a softie on the inside. Once you gain his trust, you will also earn his loyalty. He's the kind of dog who will quietly lay by your side while you watch TV or work. His face lights up whenever you say his name or pet him. He loves going outside for walks but he's also happy to lay on his bed for most of the day, pondering the meaning of life. While Wei Wei is still learning how to be a pet after being a stray animal for most of his life, his progress has been impressive.
