Champion Coedwig's Malachite, RN, HIAsd, HTADIIIds, STDc, OTDsd, ATDd
We had Rocky Penn-Hip tested,
and he came back with a mean of .49, making his hips better than 80%
of the breed!!! He truly does keep getting better and better!!!
2 of Kim's favorite guys
when Rocky was just a baby |
Rocky finished easily with 3 majors at 16 months.
Some of Rocky's breed highlights are a
pretty head, huge ears, nice forechest, good length with a level back,
long low set tail, short hocks, correct glossy coat. Of special interest to
breeders of blue merles, Rocky is a blue black, with virtually no obvious brindling.
This special boy comes from a strong OFA pedigree and is DNA PRA clear as
well. He has a biddable and sweet temperament, loves his training sessions,
doesn't know a strange person or dog, and he loves to cuddle. |

Rocky is showing
fantastic talent as a herding dog! He gained his first herding title
in his first trial ever, with both judges commenting on his skill and
promise. Rocky and I are training under herding judge and trainer Dave
Viklund. The first time Dave met Rocky and put him on sheep, he stated
"this is the kind of dog we breed to", because of his talent and
balance. Our goal is to train through the advanced herding skills and
title Rocky in all levels. Maybe even a herding championship!
