Heathrose Persians & Exotics proudly present the UK's first Imperial Smoke Persian...

Imperial Grand Champion Rocawen ''Hanz Off'''

At under the age of two years old ''Owen'' is the UK's first Imperial Grand Champion Smoke Persian. Thanks go to his breeder Carol Owen (Rocawen Persians) for allowing him to come to us, and to his judges for their placings. During his illustrious show career, Owen has attained five Best in Shows, twenty plus Best of Breeds, eight Challenge Certificates, four Grand Challenge Certificates and five Imperial Grand Challenge Certificates (not to mention had his photo taken with a celebrity!!!). Owen is of excellent smoke breeding and boasts such world renowned lines as Petovia, Palmetto, Lanoiton, Tallysans, Marhei, Southpaw, Mystichill etc... Owen has now temporarily retired from the show bench to concentrate on helping us to improve this beautiful breed by adding his ''own stamp'' on the smoke gene pool as we attempt to renew interest/increase the appearance of smoke persians at shows here in the United Kingdom.
