Sire FTCh Carnochway Red Rooster (Rocky)
Carnochway Red Rooster, better known as Rocky—an extraordinary fox red Labrador Retriever bred and owned by Carnochway Gundogs. Rocky seamlessly combines elite field trial achievements with impressive working ability and a wonderful temperament.
In 2025, he proudly reached the pinnacle of the gundog world by winning the esteemed IGL Retriever Championship, one of the highest honors a working Labrador can attain. This remarkable feat showcases not only his innate talent but also his intelligence, trainability, determination, and consistent performance under pressure.
Beyond his accolades, Rocky is a true working gundog with extensive experience in both picking-up and wildfowling. He has proven himself in a variety of challenging shooting environments. With a natural flair for finding game, a biddable nature, and a calm demeanor, he stands out as a premier all-round working Labrador.
Rocky’s health is just as impressive as his achievements. He is fully health tested, boasting outstanding scores of 2/2 for hips and 0/0 for elbows—offering peace of mind regarding his soundness.
At home, Rocky is an absolute delight. His affectionate and gentle nature makes him a fantastic family companion, and his steady temperament embodies the best qualities of the Labrador breed.
When it comes to passing on his traits to his puppies, Rocky consistently delivers exceptional results. His puppies are confident, intelligent, and highly trainable, whether they go on to become reliable working gundogs or loyal family pets with wonderful temperaments. Rocky truly represents one of the finest working pedigrees in the country.
Champion performance. Proven working ability. Excellent health. Exceptional temperament.
