I would like to thank the committee of the Northern Counties 
					Dachshund Association for inviting me to judge Best In Show, 
					I very much enjoyed my day. Also thank you to the breed 
					judges for putting through some lovely examples of the 
					breed.
					
					Best In Show
					Geeson's, Miss E H  - CH Abydachs Return of the night
 Hansome red male who stood out in his performance, a real showman. Lovely 
					head, almond shaped eye. Good reach of neck, balance in body 
					both front and rear, true moving up and down. Looked lovely 
					in profile, keeping a super outline.
					Reserve Best In Show
					Mitchell, Miss E CH Bronia Maverick
					Cream dog of quality, who moved with a good extension and 
					drive, using his neat strong quarters, keeping a lovely 
					balanced outline to take RBIS.
					Best Puppy In Show
 Binks, Miss A Tannahill Day by Day
					What a super puppy, 9 months old. Correct head, proportions, 
					long nicely arched neck, into well placed shoulder, enough 
					fore chest, ribbing well back into sound quarters, good bend 
					of stifle, moved round with ease. One for the future.
					Reserve Best Puppy In Show
					Hanney - Mitchell's Naisha Crespalia Bronia (Imp ESP)
					Another very smart sound red puppy, 10 month of good size 
					and proportions. Moved round very well, one to watch.
					Best Veteran In Show
					Phillips, Mrs V CH Royal Pepper's Vica Versa (Imp Fin)
					What a stunning, upstanding 7 year old wire who took my eye 
					both stacked and on the move, a very sound moving male with 
					excellent bone and feet, in good coat and condition. Pleased 
					to award him BVIS.
					Best Special Beginners
					Miniature Smooth haired - Bosworth, Mrs L - Bronia Solange @ 
					Lourom
					Very nice red puppy, 9 months old. Lovely shape and moved 
					really well, she just needs that little extra confidence but 
					a lovely puppy. Good luck.
