It is thought Rocky was used briefly for hare coursing and retired early following the welcome and overdue Hunting Act 2004. The fawn male was subsequently to endure a chequered history before eventually being placed in the care of AFG.

After a few months in foster care Rocky was found a loving and forever home in January 2010.
