Rafiki's Story

Rafiki is a total meatball-headed goofball with a personality all his own! This independent guy isnt big on cuddles, but hes happiest hanging out around his people, doing his own thing while still being part of the action. Rafiki loves his toys and will keep himself entertained, especially when the zoomies kick inhis playful bursts are guaranteed to make you laugh.<br/><br/>He already knows sit and lay, showing hes got a great foundation, and he did well during his dog test here at the shelter. Rafiki would likely thrive in an adult-only home where his independent nature is understood and respected. If youre looking for a low-key companion who will keep you smiling with his silly antics, Rafiki might just be your guy!
