Miniature Long Hair Dachshunds

This was my first time awarding CCs in this variety. Thank you to everyone that entered under me. I appreciated your entries. Many exhibits were lacking the true Dachshund chest which is full, oval and prominent. In many ribbing could be carried back further. Shoulder placements were variable. I was concerned about the number of dogs that were timid and unhappy about being gone over mainly, but not exclusively in the puppy classes. Having owned and shown this variety I know how much work is needed to get them ready to show and be happy on the table. Socialisation and ring craft is key. In the dog and bitch, Limit and Open classes, I was spoilt for choice.

Special Beginners Dog. 3

1  Gordon’s Allerbach’s Tiger Moth. Well proportioned head and intelligent expression on this cream boy. Good proportions, slanting shoulders, developed chest and good ribbing. Held a level top line standing and moving. Once in his stride he covered the ground well. BSB

2 May’s Hanishan Fiery Fox. Red with good head and proportions. Level top line which was better on the move than stacked. Not the chest or shoulders of 1. Ribbing could be longer. Movement not quite as positive as 1.

3 Mayson & Nichol’s Charpurdy’s The Viscount 

Minor Puppy Dog 1

1 Aneke’s Saffron Devil At Dachadam. Red with good head, dark eyes and good pigment. Well proportioned body. Lost his top line at times. A little reluctant on the move. 

Puppy Dog 4

1  Horbulewicz’s Czarujacy Lorcan Ufna Morda (Imp Pol) A well proportioned red dog with adequate neck and sloping shoulders. Would prefer a softer expression. Held top line stacked and on the move. Won this class on his positive movement.

2 May’s Hanishan Fiery Fox. 2nd in Special Beginners Dog.

3 Small’s Minard Darque Red For Devondax.

Junior Dog 2

1 Gordon’s Allerbachs Tiger Moth. 1st in Special Beginners. 

Post Graduate Dog 5 (1a)

1 McCarthy’s Nagshall Dyce The Ice. JW. A well proportioned red dog that won this class on movement. Well balanced head with developed chest and sloping shoulders. Good spring of rib and length. He covered the ground well and moved positively out and back.

2 Mayson & Nichol’s Charpurdy’s The Baron. Well balanced male. Good masculine head with sufficient length of neck and ribbing. He kept a level top line standing and on the move. His movement was not quite so fluid as the winner. I would just prefer a little less coat so that his outline is shown to the full.

3 Horbulewicz’s Salan Red Horses (Imp Pol)

Limit Dog 5 (1W)

This was a competitive class.

1  Phillips’ Fallingwater Good Friday. A red with a lovely head. Long neck into well placed shoulders with sufficient chest. Well balanced body with sufficient length and spring of rib. On the move he was driving out covering the ground. Movement was positive out and back.

2  Poole’s Findowrie The Fusileer. Lovely shape and proportions on this black and tan boy. Good head and neck leading into well placed shoulders. Prominent chest and good length  of ribbing. He was also driving out well with positive movement.

3 Wallace’s Ralines Just Jiles

Open Dog 5 (1a)

Another competitive class.

1 Wood’s  Ch Wildstar Wrobinson. Red dog with excellent breed type. He comes into his own on the move with free, flowing strides. Good head and expression. Good length of neck flowing into good shoulder placement. Well developed chest, ribbing carried well back and good spring of rib. He moved with reach and drive covering the ground efficiently keeping a level topline. CC. BOB.

2 Weston & Johnson’s Ch Ecotyne Devil’s Advocate. Lovely masculine head on this dapple dog. Good length of neck into well laid shoulders.   Well developed chest, good ribbing. Used his good hind quarters to drive out covering the ground with ease. Movement not quite so positive as the winner. RCC

3 Poole’s Findowie Mister Mckye

Veteran Dog

No entries

Special Beginners Bitch 3

1 May’s Custard And Jelly. Pleasing head proportions. Sufficient neck leading into sloping shoulders, sufficient chest. Could be a little shorter in body to meet the 2 to 1 requirements of height to length ratio. Won this class on movement which was fluid. 

2 May’s Coco’s Sparkling Snowflake. Pleasant head, sloping shoulders. Body proportions correct. Movement was irregular and inefficient. Top line was level standing but lost on the 

move.

3 Withheld.

Minor Puppy Bitch 5 (1W)

1 Poole’s Findowrie Finesse. Red, feminine with lovely and correct head proportions. Good neck flowing into well layed shoulders. Chest developing, correct for age. Correct body proportions. Good ribbing and top line held standing and on the move. Once in her stride she moved covering the ground well. The more she moved, the better her stride. BPB. BPIB

2. Palin’s My Classic Cream By Sanmik. Cream girl who was longer in body proportions than 1. Pleasing head, chest developing, shoulders not quite the lay back of 1. Topline held on the stack and whilst moving. Straight movement out and back.
