Great Joint  2002

Best in Show

Dachshund ( Smooth Haired)

Judge : Jane Naylor

It was a great honour to be invited to judge BIS at this prestigious show, I enjoyed my day very much, my BIS was Lockett’s Ch Ralines Royal Acclaim. A beautiful and elegant b of correct construction and outline, good legs and feet, excellent underline and quarters, her movement was a joy to watch, she was in lovely coat and condition and in my opinion very worthy of her BIS; Res BIS Swann and Roberts’ Ch Swansford Lanador. An impressive d, good bone, legs and feet, very steady on the move and covered the ground really well. BPIS Angear’s Ridgegrove Cuddley Dudley. How this exhibitor produces these dogs to a pattern I don’t know, they are of faultless construction and have glamour par excellance, moved round the ring gracefully. Res Puppy Sexton and Cocozza’s Freecloud Mum’s The Word. This is an impressive youngster and one that should have a bright future, she has a lovely head, neck and topline and strong quarters which she uses well and is as sound as a bell. BVIS Poulter’s Lankelly Betony. There is a lot to like about this b. She has good head and eye, excellent double coat, nice outline and is a sound mover. She obviously loves to come to a show as her tail never stopped wagging.
