Notes from Rompin Paws Rescue

Meet Nyssa, the "Jackawhip" who is small in size but massive in personality! Pronounced "Nee-sah," this 1-year-old Jack Russell Terrier and Whippet mix is available through Senior Dogs and Friends Rescue in Arlington, WA . Nyssa perfectly balances the elegant, sleek build of a Whippet with the confident, opinionated energy of a Jack Russell. She is past the chaotic puppy phase, making her the perfect age to bond with her forever family.
