Here is Shannon's Mother dear. She is wolf in species but has large paws. I tried to keep her similar to Shannon since he gets most of his markings from his mother.

Here's a bit of a background between the two:

Her name is Shae although most people called her Haze

She has quite a dull personality and tends to let the world happen around her, like what the storm represents.
She was born and raised in the farming province (of my brain land) and kept to hopefully breed working dogs for the surrounding farms. There she met a Hyena resembling snazzy looking fellow.

This relationship brought Shannon into the world. Unfortunately for him he never really got to know his mother because he was sold off at a young age. That is how he has such a different personality to his mother. I'll leave it hanging there and see whether you guys want to hear the rest.
