On May 17, 2013, Rory was awarded Best in Specialty Show (BISS) at the Havanese Club of America Regional Specialty in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma under Judge Janice Pardue, shown by his co-breeder, Julie Vogel. This was Rory's third appearance in the show ring since he earned his championship in July, 2012.
- Rory is also proving a capable sire, with a National winning offspring in his first litter. Shown by breeder/owner/handler Julie Vogel, Minzy, a/k/a Oeste's She Like to Move It," was awarded:
- Winners Bitch, 1st in Bred-by Exhibitor Bitches - Havanese Club of American ("HCA") National, Portland, Oregon, July 2014
- Best of Winners, Winners Bitch, 1st in Bred-by Exhibitor Bitches & Best Owner Handler - HCA Regional Specialty, Portland, Oregon, July 2014
-
The breeding of Rolo and Cori was inspired by Debbie Chamber's cross of Cori's dam Ch. Wincroft's B-Atitude of Skyline ("Bea") to Rolo.
-
This cross resulted in BISS GCh Marcosa's Slip Slidin Away of Skyline ("Slider"), who won Best in Specialty Show at the HCA National Specialty Show in Bloomington, MN in July 2012, and Best of Breed at the AKC Eukanuba National Championship in Orlando, FL in December 2012. Slider was #1 Havanese in Breed and All Breed Points in the US in 2012.
-
We are thrilled with the resulting Rolo ex Cori litter, which are 3/4 siblings to Slider. The litter includes Rory, Ch. Oeste's Sweet Island Romance ("Candy"), and Ch. Oeste's Sweet Island Affair ("Tabitha").
