Nutmeg is an adorable Chihuahua/Spaniel mix, 1 year old that weighs 8 lbs. We rescued her from a high kill shelter; she was found as a stray in the streets.
She is a bit shy and skittish but improving every day in her foster home. She seems to be OK with other dogs but not cats, we are still learning about her to see how her personality evolves.
Nutmeg is up to date on vaccines, spayed and microchipped. If you are interested in her please complete the application on our website: www.terriersrus.org.

They come in a variety of coat colors and patterns, with both long and short coats, making them a diverse and adorable addition to any family.
The Spaniel is a versatile and affectionate dog breed known for its friendly demeanor, intelligence, and exceptional hunting skills. With origins dating back to the 14th century, Spaniels come in various types such as the Cocker Spaniel, Springer Spaniel, and Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. These dogs excel in both the field and as loving family companions, showcasing their adaptability, loyalty, and energetic nature.
