Rocky is a handsome, upstanding individual with a touch of the “naughtiness” about him..........stalking one of the horses or chasing a cow is a favourite pastime if we are too far behind to be acknowledged.  He knows it’s wrong, and looks very contrite when we get close enough for our commands to penetrate the brain, but, after all, a fella is a “hound” !!!

His athleticism comes to the fore when galloping around the paddocks playing “chasey” with Alice..........or in the bush, leaping fallen logs and weaving through trees after the rabbit that made the mistake of coming out of its burrow. 

Shown sparingly (my fault, not his), he is slowly gathering the points towards his title but is often chosen as the “bridesmaid”, being awarded RUBOB— a trend, we hope will change in the near future.

Rocky has sired 6 litters.........check out some of the kids on “Rocky’s Kids” page.
