I was pleased and honoured to judge this dachshund variety for the first time. I thank all exhibitors for their support and sportsmanship. I was pleased overall with the quality of the entry, especially my winners. I was concerned at the numbers with close, weak hindquarters. Hopefully this has been recognised and will be improved by breeders. Thanks again.

MPD. (5). 1. Blackburn’s, Bardachs Santa Cruz to Stargang. Quality youngster well made all through. Sound forequarters with good tight elbows. Pleasing front and hind angulation. Body of overall balance and length. Although preferred head and expression of second. I preferred this one’s more compact body and more precise movement. 2. Coxon’s, D’Arisca without Doubt.

Longer in loin than first but was unsettled on the move especially hind action.
