My story
Look at the furry cutie, Xian-Bei, he smiles a lot, behaves well, and he is gluttonous! But you know what? Xian-Bei was rescued from a middle of nowhere. There’s a story of resilience behind his big smile.
It was a chilly winter on 2021, a passerby found Xian-Bei crouching at a street stair, skinny and trembling, with a billboard on his neck:” Hi, I don’t bite, I’m abandoned. Please take me home if you can.” The passerby decided to help. Twists and turns, finally Xian-Bei came to PACK.
Rest and trained, spent 8 months at PACK, the furry cutie now interns at a foster home, he’s 100% socialized, and ready for the new lifestyle and a forever home!

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.

Dogs
Nothing special, Xian-Bei only barks and kicks out other dogs when he’s resting and gets bothered.
Cats
Not interested in cats, so-so.
Kids
Same reaction towards strangers, Xian-Bei pushes kids away when they are being rude or too much.
Noise
Xian-Bei is okay with noises, he adapts quickly.
Touch

Behavior observations
There are some common behavior issues that we see in dogs who have spent a significant amount of time in a shelter. We assess our dogs for these behaviors and provide training plans for adopters to help manage them.
Barking
Seldom.
Separation Anxiety
No separation anxiety.
Aggression
No aggression toward humans, Xian-Bei gets aggressive only when other dogs come and bother him.
Resource Guarding
This occurs sometimes when Xian-Bei is at PACK. His behavior improves a lot after training, but it’s better to keep an eye on him.
Destructive Chewing
Never breaks things, nor bites something that he should not bite.
