Thelma used to live in the city outskirts, competing with stray dogs for scraps to get by. The mountains on the horizon called her name, and eventually she could resist it no longer. The journey took 2 weeks, and along the way she met Mazurka, an abandoned border collie wolf-dog, who would join her in creating the Pack Timberline. After struggling to survive most of her life, Thelma is sympathetic to all those down on their luck, and welcomes every orphaned pup or wolf kicked from their pack. She is still learning how to make it in the wild, but has made a name for herself as a patient and caring leader.
