Rocco

Rocco is owned by Donna Jaruzel (Brandilyn English Cockers) and co-owned by me

Rocco came to the USA in November of 2021 with his littermate Marco to live with myself and Donna. When deciding which boy would live with who, I had to send Rocco (affectionally known as Biddy Biddy by me) with Donna as I knew I would turn him into an absolute monster to live and travel with – HAHAHA! Rocco has the most darling and lovable temperament and can stare into your eyes for days, making you hand over any possible thing he wants. I may or may not have carried him around on his back every day while he lived with me (the reason he had to go with Donna) – I knew he would turn me into mush if he stayed!

Donna and Rocco are now on the lookout for a final major win to complete his championship! With such a happy attitude and a love for the show ring, it’s no doubt he will finish in no time!

Achievements:

Rocco’s first time in the show ring was the English Cocker Spaniel Club of America’s National Specialty 2022, held in Gettysburg, PA with Breeder Judge Patricia Bentley (Canigou English Cocker Spaniels – UK). Rocco placed 4th in a HUGE class of 6-9 puppies, beating his littermate Marco to boot!

1st major – One week following the National, Rocco picked up his first major from the 9-12 month class.
Greenville, SC July 2022 – Reserve Winners Dog to a 5pt major at the ECSCA Regional Specialty put on by the Seaboard English Cocker Spaniel Club under Breeder Judge Joyce Winkels (Itoba English Cocker Spaniels – USA).
Heart Of Michigan Specialty September 2022 – Rocco again goes Reserve Winners Dog to a 5pt major under Breeder Judge Marissa Clark.
Tennessee Valley English Cocker Spaniel Fanciers Specialty October 2022 – Best of Opposite Sex in Puppy Sweepstakes under Breeder Judge Mindy Bartholomew (Faerytails English Cocker Spaniels – USA).
Fletcher, NC May 2023 – Rocco picks up his last 3 single points by going Best of Breed over a special and a lovely entry of English Cockers! Rocco now is only lacking a major win to complete his AKC Championship!
