With certified Border Patrol dogs in his third and forth generations Rocky’s pedigree is full of some of the greatest working and producing dogs of the present and past, Cordon An-Sat, a great producer of many outstanding working dogs in Slovakia/ the very influential DDR producing stud dog,  Iwo v.d. Buschecke,/ and the great Klara z Pohranicni Straze to name a few.  Rocky’s mother, Hobby Venusina Sopka  along with her grandfather Cir z Vrtovske Doliny has competed numerous times on the Czech Republic and European levels.  Hobby possesses the old Czech working blood of the dog Dar z Przma,  who in his time was the most successful producer of working dogs in Czechoslovakia.
