Dog Acting/modelling Experience
Scruffy recently worked with a film school and was one of the main characters in the film ‘The Adventures of Jake & Rusty Rogers’ which required Scruffy to form a bond with a young boy and take direction from him as well as bark on command and follow the young boy through a forest. Scruffy did a fantastic job with no issues on set and was loved by all.
In all, he is well socialised with other animals loving other dogs & people of all ages; being relaxed & gentle with all that he meets. He works as a Pets as Therapy Dog means he is always giving & receiving love to all that he meets.
This unusual boy is ideal for small roles requiring pet talent according to his skill set.
