You can try multi-pass rendering, but I don't think there's any other way right now. Shag is not exactly a true atmospheric plugin, but more of a post-plugin that is disguised as an atmospheric. Shag doesn't show up in reflections as well (unlike true atmospherics), so this is something along the same lines as what you're seeing. You can try multi-pass though, which -should- work. Other than that, hope they extend the abilities of shag in a later version, I guess.

Shag doesn't render if you enable DoF in finalRender either. Just render it twice and comp it if it's for a still. If it's for an animation you're crazy doing the DoF straight from Max anyway.

From what I understand, Shag uses it's own renderer for hair and then comps it onto the main renderer. So Brazil or fR render the scene but leave the hair to Shag which obviously does not support dof
