Shasta's Story

Name: Shasta<br/>Age estimate: 1 year<br/>Sex: Neutered Male<br/>Breed: Husky Shepherd X<br/>Good with Cats: Untested<br/>Good with Dogs: Untested<br/>Good with Kids: Older <br/>Been in Shelter Since: January 7, 2026<br/><br/>Shasta is a handsome mix with a great foundation and tons of potential. In his kennel, he settles well and keeps his space clean. <br/><br/>He has that classic independent husky personality, and enjoys staying mentally and physically occupied. Shasta knows his basic commands and is food motivated, though he’s still learning consistency when distractions are present. When his needs are met, he’s able to relax (often with his favorite fox shaped squeaky toy, which he loves tossing into the air for his own entertainment.)<br/><br/>Shasta would likely thrive in a home that enjoys an active lifestyle and can offer access to a secure outdoor space or daily exercise and enrichment. He hasn’t been officially dog or cat tested yet and he would benefit from slow, thoughtful introductions. <br/><br/>We’re still getting to know Shasta, and he continues to show us his playful, curious personality. If interested in meeting this boy to get to know him more yourself, please contact the shelter by phone or send us a message on here.
