“ | A starving stray dog, they named him 'Scraps'. You can feed him anything. Low maintenance. | „ |
— In-game biography |
Scraps is an animal resident of Portia with whom the player can develop a friendship. He is a stray dog who isn't present at the start of My Time at Portia because he has run away. "Missing" posters with his picture can be found hanging on walls around town.
Unlocking[]
Talking to Polly while close to the missing dog poster at the lower city gates will initiate the A New Friend mission. After completion, Scraps will wander around town.
Once Familiar status (2 stars) with him has been reached, a new mission, Feeling Safe, will trigger that enables the player to adopt him by crafting a Bell Collar with Carol's help and gifting it to him. There is no limit on how many pets the player can have.
Profile[]
Personal Life[]
Scraps is a friendly, good-tempered dog, but has a mischievous side that shows on rare occasions. He dislikes few things but adores food, and enjoys meat-centric dishes from both land and sea as well as Apples and Aroma Apples.
He prefers to walk rather than run, and will walk long distances daily for the sake of finding potential food. He has been known to leave town in search of food.
Physical Appearance[]

It is currently unknown if he is based on a specific breed of dog. [ verify ]
Related Characters[]
Scraps is not inherently related to any characters due to being a stray dog, and as such, has no relationship network. However, given what some townspeople say about him, he is definitely closer to those that are inclined to give him food (namely Polly, Django, and Martha [ verify ]).
Schedule[]
Before unlocking him, Scraps cannot be found in town at all.
After he has been unlocked, if the player has not adopted him, Scraps will wander around town during the day. In the afternoon, he walks along Main Street, visiting The Round Table and Martha's Bakery to beg for food.
If the player has adopted him, he will instead start the day at the player's house. If a Dog House is placed, he will walk to the Dog House in the morning to nap. Throughout [ verify ] the day, he may play with any toy that the player has placed in the house. In the afternoon, he will take up his search along Main Street for food. At the end of the day, he will return to the player's house to go to sleep.
