Shani tends to be an insecure Tokota. She growls at everything before checking it out first, as if she believes everything is a threat to her safety or that of the handlers. In a pack setting, Shani keeps to herself and prefers to linger on the outside of the group. While she gets along well with her handlers, she doesn't care for the company of most other animals. This is mostly because she was an isolated and standoffish pup that never learned how to get along with others of her kind. Her handlers aim to gradually make her at ease with other Tokotas, so she can live a happier, healthier life.
