Thank you to the committee of The Miniature Dachshund Club for the invitation to judge at their Championship Show, I had a really enjoyable day. Thank you exhibitors for the most amazing entry of 96 to go over, decisions were tough in the classes. The floor wasn’t particular friendly to some; some handled it better than others.  Temperaments on the whole were good, not as many heavy exhibits as there were the last time I judged.  Upper arms are still a concern, and now short ribbing too is becoming prevalent. Heads and mouths on the whole were good.  Presentation in most was also much better, Loved my winners and was super proud to see my Best of Breed, Best Puppy and Best Veteran all win the top Best in show awards.

Taller Dark Brindle boy, good coat, nice head although rounder in eye then I would like, good angulation moved well behind and in profile, but needs to tighten in front.  Just preferred the overall package of the 3rd:  HAWKINS Martinks Storm in a Teacup for Lonaza

Difficult Class to judge as many varied types.

What a lovely puppy, Stood away for me in this class. Lovely Head and eye shape.  Gorgeous shape stacked, enough neck into well laid shoulders, good length with strong ribbing. Excellent rear, and very sound on the move, pushed hard for the top spot, I’m sure she will jump in that Top Drawer, loved her on the move and showing a super happy outgoing temperament.  Good Luck with her, pleased to award her the RCC, Best Puppy in breed and then to go onto Best Puppy in Show. Thrilled!

2nd:CLEMENTS Springdac Red Siren

Another well presented red, loved her shape on the move, could present herself better stacked.  Lovely head and expression with good pigmentation, decent front and good neck. Good hindquarters and her movement was really sound and precise which Won her place over 3rd

Quality Class of bitches
1st: ERGIS & MERRY Drakesleat Trial N Error for Siouxline JW

Two very nice bitches, was nit picking between the two, both had lovely houndy heads and expressions. Both well presented, and coats of good texture. Lovely in profile shapes standing and movement, 1st today just had the edge today in hind movement, but sure they will change places on many occasions. Was up there for top honours, but the puppy bitch’s extrovert temperament won over her on the day.
