Shasta’s Personality
Shasta is a sweet, loving pup with an adventurous spirit. He’s a natural explorer who loves
walks, hikes, and discovering new places. His curiosity knows no bounds, and he’s always
eager to experience the world around him.
But don’t let his adventurous side fool you—Shasta is also a big softie who loves to cuddle and
shower his humans with kisses. He’s incredibly social and gets along wonderfully with other
dogs, often taking on the role of a protective and playful big brother.
Shasta is smart, obedient, and eager to please. He learns commands quickly and is already a
pro on a leash. Once he’s familiar with his surroundings, he has the confidence to explore off-
leash safely.
This pup also has a flair for the spotlight—he loves posing for photos and even enjoys dressing
up for special occasions. With Shasta, every day feels like a fun-filled adventure or a
heartwarming comedy show.
Shasta’s Ideal Home
Shasta would thrive in an active home that loves outdoor adventures. His ideal family enjoys
activities like hiking, long walks, or exploring trails. A secure yard where he can play and roam
would be a dream come true for this energetic boy.
Shasta’s social nature makes him a great fit for a home with another dog. He’s also fantastic
with children, always gentle and playful, making him an excellent companion for families.
Whether it’s a quiet evening snuggling on the couch or an exciting day out, Shasta is ready to
be part of every family moment.
Why You Should Adopt Shasta
Shasta is more than a pet—he’s a loyal friend, a playful partner, and a source of endless joy.
His big heart, boundless energy, and loving personality make him a once-in-a-lifetime
companion.
Whether he’s exploring the great outdoors or stealing the show in family photos, Shasta will
bring happiness and love to your life every single day.
Shasta’s Rescue Story
Shasta’s journey began in a crowded dog pound, where he and his siblings faced an uncertain
and heartbreaking fate. Days turned into nights, and hope seemed to fade—until a
compassionate veterinarian stepped in.
Recognizing the sweetness and potential in Shasta and his siblings, the vet reached out to
NWW, who refused to let their story end in tragedy. They rescued the trio and brought them to a
safe boarding facility where they could heal, grow, and prepare for their forever homes.
Despite his tough start, Shasta’s spirit remains unbroken. He’s now a playful, loving pup who’s
ready to leave his past behind and start a new chapter with a family who will cherish him.

Shasta is currently in Mexico, waiting for a family to commit to a 10-day trial adoption. His
adoption fee is $600. If you’re ready to welcome this sweet boy into your life, apply at
