My dog Timmy is scruffy but beautiful in his own way.

'in' is the preposition.

So the prepositional phrase is 'in his own way'

To find out if it's an adjective or adverb:

Adjectives answer the question Which one?

Adverbs answer the question How? When? or Where?

So this is an adverb because it answers the question "How?".

So the correct answer is A. in his own way; adverb
