Roki Scruff and Shenanigans looks like a loofah with eyebrows, and somehow that is a very handsome look. Add a beard, a mustache, and a whole lot of confidence, and you have Roki—a scruffy little character who brings the fun, then scoots in close for the scritchy-scratchy moments he looks forward to all day! Go watch Roki on YouTube to see that glorious scruff in motion, catch a little of his terrier personality, and watch how happily he soaks up affection. Copy and paste the link into yur browser to see more! Roki is estimated to be about a year old, and we’re guessing a Cairn Terrier mix, possibly with some Schnauzer in there. His age and breed are our best guesses, but the beard is a pretty scientific clue. His rough coat and fluffy eyebrows give him a wonderfully expressive face, perfectly suited to the personality underneath. This boy loves being loved on. Booty scratches, belly rubs, hands working their way through all that scruff—yes, please! He’ll crawl up beside you and politely ask for a little attention, then happily settle into whatever affection you have available. For a boy with so much gumption, he has a very sweet way of getting close to make a connection. Roki is young, energetic, and ready to put some fun on the calendar. Walks, playtime, and opportunities to explore would suit him beautifully. He brings that familiar terrier confidence to meeting other dogs, too. He’s happy to introduce himself and has his own ideas about how the games should go, usually involving a good chase. A playful, easygoing dog who enjoys chase games and appreciates a friend with a little sass could be a lovely match. Roki would also be happy as an only dog, with his people providing the adventures and affection. A cat-free home is his best fit, thanks to that love of chase, cats feel strongly they are not the right company for his enthusiasm. When it’s time to rest, Roki has shown us that the setup matters. He has done well spending quiet time in a roomy, comfortably contained space with a little couch of his own. A crate currently gets more commentary from him, so a home with flexibility to use a cozy room or another suitable space would be a great starting point. Apartment living would need careful consideration, especially if the plan involves extended daytime crating. His success in a larger space is encouraging, and his family can build on that as he settles into home life. Roki brings the fun, a lot of affection, and a face you’ll want approximately 400 pictures of. If your idea of good company has a scruffy beard, enjoys a lively game, and happily backs up for booty scratches, this boy deserves a spot on your couch and forever in your heart.
