My story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.  **MEET Nyssa, Your New Best Friend**   Introducing Nyssa, a truly exceptional one-year-old Jack Russell Terrier-Whippet mix with a short coat. This delightful pup perfectly blends gentleness and strength, feistiness and confidence—wrapped in a personality that is simply irresistible. At this pivotal stage in her life, Nyssa is ready to flourish and thrive with the loving family she deserves. This is your chance to make a lasting difference in her world!   While Nyssa may be a bit shy at first, she quickly opens up and builds trust with kind encouragement. An active family would be her perfect match, providing the companionship she needs to channel her boundless energy into thrilling adventures and meaningful training. Intelligent and eager to learn, Jack Russells excel with proper guidance, and with the Whippet’s calm and gentle nature, Nyssa is the ideal partner for anyone excited about training and outdoor fun. Just imagine the incredible bond you could create together!   It’s important to note that this unique breed has a strong prey drive, so its future home should be free of small animals and cats. To ensure a harmonious environment, we are particularly looking for families with children over 10 years old who have experience with dogs.   Nyssa's stunning short coat boasts beautiful brown spots against a pristine white background, complemented by her long back and medium-short legs, which create an adorable silhouette. Her robust, muscular build not only hints at her potential as a fantastic hiking or agility partner but also promises a life overflowing with joy and excitement. Picture all the adventures waiting for you with Nyssa by your side!   Currently, Nyssa enjoys a human-grade dog food diet, and Rompin Paws provides educational resources to help you learn the best nutrition for our rescued dogs. By adopting Nyssa, you’re not just gaining a new furry family member; you are committing to her health and happiness. Nyssa is ready to fill your life with joy and endless adventures. Don’t miss out on the chance to welcome this incredible girl into your home!     **Adopting Nyssa** To apply for the adoption of Nyssa, please use the link below. One of our volunteers will review your application and follow up with you to ask questions, address any concerns you may have, and determine if you are a good match for this pup. If a match is made, the next step will be a meet-and-greet. Please use a computer to complete the application, as tablets and cell phones may cause disruptions in the process. Nyssa has transitioned to a human-grade diet that avoids kibble, focusing instead on a healthy canine-specific feeding regimen. We will educate her adopters on proper diet and nutrition.                                                                     The adoption fee for Nyssa is $450   All funds will be utilized to cover her medical care and to rescue more dogs in need. https://rompinpawsrescue.com Nyssa has a bonded dog adoption fee of $595.00 if adopted as a bonded pair with her best buddy, Luna.      Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 9, 2026, 9:34 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Nyssa A Jackawhip (A designer breed), please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
