Dachshund (Long Haired)

PD (1) A. JD (1) 1 McNaughton’s Cedavoch The Alchemist, nice size & substance. Good head & lovely expression & well set ears of nice size. Good neck & shoulder. Excellent topline. Well developed but not overdone forechest with good leg length & feet. Well ribbed. Lovely true front movement with excellent carriage in profile. Excellent coat texture & amount. Moves a little close behind. PGD (1) 1 Cook & Rhodes’ Bournder Regency Malachite, masculine dog with good proportions & balance. Masculine head with dark eye. Good ears. Good neck. Topline OK. Well ribbed. A little deep in chest for me. Front feet could be better. Holds himself well on the move. LD (3) 1 CC & BOB, McNaughton’s Telkel Rumor Has It, lovely balance. Excellent size. Good head. Balanced front & rear with clean outline. Good front, depth, ribbing & topline. Balanced free sound movement with strong powerful rear. Tail carriage a shade high otherwise excels in so many ways; 2 Geeson’s Abydachs Seize The Night, good proportions & leg length. Good head, eye & topline. Well developed forechest, not overdone but elbows could be tighter. Could drop in his rear a little but moves with style. Good coat texture & not too much of it; 3 Metcalfe-Bilgin’s Metadale Maulda. OD (3,1a) 1 RCC, Peat’s Am Ch Pramada’s Xavier with Jorddachs, excellent proportions & balance. Good head & eye & excellent ears. Enough neck, excellent topline. Balanced front & rear. Excellent size & full of substance with no coarseness. Lovely coat of correct texture. Very sound dog with balanced stylish movement; 2 Lewis’ Trixhund Euphoria, good head & eye. Good topline. Could be a little tighter in elbows. Well ribbed & enough daylight. Moves well.

PB (3) 1 CC & BP, Paget & Carroll’s Bronia Aphrodite of Marvale, gorgeous puppy, love everything about her, her outline, proportions are excellent, lovely head, beautiful front, correct leg length, topline & balanced rear. When settled moves so well for her size; 2 Mitchell’s Bronia Atalanta, similar comment & although she is bigger all over has a lot of developing to do, lovely head. Not as good in front as 1 but overall a very nice bitch as was the 3^rd puppy in the class; 3 Lewis’ Trixhund You Are My World. JB (1) 1 Metcalfe-Bilgin’s Garthorne Going Home to Metadale, excellent size & overall type. Loved her balance & outline in profile. Just needs to tidy up & develop in front a little. Good leg length, topline & rear. PGB (1) 1 Lumley’s Tarramist Tsarine, more workmanlike in type. Sturdy & robust. Good head & ears. Enough neck, topline OK. Deep chest. Would look better a shade slimmer. Good strong rear. Moves well in profile. LB (2) 1 Geeson’s Abydachs Giving Off Sparks, both very nice for different reasons. 1 has the most beautiful eye & expression & whilst a shade upright in front, moves reasonably true if a shade close; 2 Paget & Carroll’s Bronia Viva La Vida, stands beautifully balanced but is rather erratic in front movement & moves a little close behind, both feminine & balanced with an elegance, 1 just scored overall on movement down & back. OB (5,1) 1 RCC, Cook & Rhodes’ Bournder Ruby Empress, lovely clean outline. Honest & very correct. Lovely head. Good neck & topline. Basically true coming & going with balanced reach & drive. Enough daylight. Well ribbed; 2 Mitchell’s Bronia Callista, more glamorous in outline & striking looking but preferred head of 1 & front movement. She excels for her size & overall profile outline with excellent rear & really picks herself up on the move. Could be a shade tidier coming towards; 3 McNaughton’s Ch Cedavoch Kismet.
