A huge thank you to Northern Counties Dachshund for the invitation to judge and my wonderful steward. It was a very long weekend and for many exhibits their 5th show of the weekend. I thoroughly enjoyed my day.

Most exhibits were shown in immaculate coat condition. Some would benefit from more exercise – which improve body condition, pasterns, feet and movement. Overall shape and type was good. As was balance and type.

Veteran Dog/bitch

1ST Glasvey Double Trouble for Loggeta JW VW (Miss D M Bailey), What a lovely honest and true 8 year old girl. Balanced outline with nothing overdone, everything in the right place. Correct front and rear angulation which was used to effortlessly move her round the ring, keeping a super profile shape. True away and back and held a super topline. Good keel and ribbing. Lovely head. Good width. Shown in lovely condition and couldn’t be denied ResCC.

2ND Dagastren Martha My Dear (Mr G P & Mrs D E Lumley), A nice girl. True away and back. She was feeling the effects of a long day. Very well handled. just not the topline and overall shape of 1. Lovely temperament and type.

Minor Puppy

1ST Ranglewood Christmas Star (Miss E A Garlick). Still lot of maturing and finishing to do but a promising puppy. Moved true away and back. Lovely tight feet. Angulation and balance ok. Topline fine for age and should firm up as matures and muscles up. Lovely head and expression. Best Puppy Dog.

Puppy

1ST Delsaux Made It Jumbo Band (Mr A Basha). Lovely head and expression. Good width throughout. Good spring of rib. Hammy rear and low hocks. Lacking a little in front extension and rear drive.

Junior

1st Ch Dachyclan Connolly at Bronia (Imp Aus) (Miss E Mitchell) . Young man well deserving of his title. Best of fronts. Kept a super tight topline. True away and back. Lovely coat and shown in super condition.

2ND Cedavoch Circeo (L Mcnaughton). Lovely head and expression. Overall nice type. Correct front and rear angulation. Good ribbing. Moved true. Not quite width of 1.

3RD Swansford Padraciador at Gainscroft (Miss S L Vincent)

Yearling

1ST Swansford Padawanador (Mr D Roberts). Best of fronts which gives good front extension and true coming action. In profile moved well, if in on a mission today. Super head and expression, full of breed type. Well ribbed back. Loved his type and style, just gave way to more mature and super rear action and drive of older boys today.

Post Grad

1ST Breezelyn Long Awaited by Gainscroft (Miss S L Vincent) Head ok, little broad for me. Good neck. Balanced in front and rear. Good ribbing. Super coat.

Limit

2ND Gainscroft Dark Destroyer (Miss S L Vincent). Different type to one but still nice. Moved away and back true. Good neck into lovely front. Well padded feet. Held a strong topline on the move. Coat and condition excellent. Just preferred overall shape of 1.

3RD Dolan The Last Time (Mr M Wedge)

Open

1ST Ch Abydachs Return of The Night (Miss E H Geeson) This boy demanded attention on entering the ring. Super shape and oozes breed type. Lovely head and expression, best of fronts. Well ribbed back, strong rear which he used to power round the ring. True away and back and then moved up a gear when going round, showing excellent profile movement with front extension and rear drive. Delighted to award CC and BOB.

2ND Ch Swansford Gabrieldor (Mr D Roberts). Another quality male and see father of 1. Much of the same applies. Excellent breed type. Super head and expression, excels on the move. Well balanced and in super condition, well deserved ResCC.

1ST Ranglewood Katrine (Miss P A Heap). Good type. Moved away and back true. Good neck and head. Little short in ribbing but good spring of rib.
