Rock N Roller aka Mikey. He was a huge running dog that would have a trial won until the last few minutes. Several Championships in hand only to bust a bird or get on an Armadillo...(his weakness). As a fancy running as he was pointing. He seemed to float above the ground running with a high head and high cracking tail. I called him a Muddy mouthed dog because of his head coloring. Sonofagun could flat fly and would have your attention doing so. Produced several Champions and winners. Last count was over 400 winners and 3 Champions with multiple championships. I cried when he died.

Haven't had it in years but never spit any out. I am a sucker for happy endings and strapped cowboys.

Great looking animal with a legacy to boot. Congrats. For you old-timers look up Mount Nebo's Lefty.

Didn't Mikey's blood thru Lefty produced a female that ran at Ames? I can't think of her name.. Any way Mikey sure enough threw some good ones.

He was a bad luck dog. I went to Ardmore and road in the Gallery and watched him run a great race and have 4 perfect finds only to get on an armadillo at 59 minutes and try to kill it. Gordon was so upset but all he could do was laugh about it and shake his head. Mikey had no idea he was doing wrong. LOL He was as happy as could be. I am giggling now thinking of that moment.

Tasty...... (one more generation Red Water Rex my all time fav simply because he won big trials while yipping at the birds as they left).
