Debbie Short rescued Shasta in May of 1993 and brought her to the Lawrences at Wolf Hollow. Shasta was a wolf/malamute hybrid who had been badly abused by previous owners. The collar around Shasta's neck was so tight and had been on so long that it had grown into the skin on the back of her neck.

Wolf hybrids are generally dangerous and unpredictable, and Shasta was no exception. Due to her mixed parentage and previous abuse, she was very aggressive. Unable to be released into the wild, Shasta was housed in her own enclosure at Wolf Hollow and this sign hung on the outside.
