  Rowlf the Dog - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rowlf the Dog is a Muppet character, a scruffy brown dog of indeterminate breed with a rounded fl nose and long floppy ears.
Rowlf was built in 1962 for Purina Dog Chow commercials.
Rowlf was considered to be one of Jim Henson's most personal characters, and has been mostly retired since Jim Henson's death in 1990, similar to how Scooter was retired after Richard Hunt's death in 1992.
