Midland Dachshund Club  2002

Judge: Marjorie Knowles

My thanks to the committee of this club for the invitation to judge BIS, I thoroughly enjoyed my day and such a nice show spoiled by so many absentees. BIS was Boyle’s Mini Smooth Ch Radcliffe Immorata at Zarcrest. Red d, lovely front, nice eye and head, a very cocky little fellow who commands attention, good body and good legs and feet, nicely muscled, a free mover. RBIS was Atkin’s CH Kantis Komanchee. B/t long haired d, good head, lovely head into good lay back of shoulders, again well muscled and firm, good bone and feet, a good mover both ways, if I was critical he has enough coat, if I had to pick a BOS it would have been the same owners Veteran b, which I see is his mother and I gave CC to many years ago, she is still lovely only as ëall old ones are a bit grey’. BPIS. This line up was not so good a couple didn’t like me so spoiled their chances bit with experience will I hope settle down, the mini long Locket’s Ralin Dumbledore is lovely, super head and eye, super front and bone, nice quarters, moved well, again for me enough coat. RBPIS was Price’s Mini Wire Samlane Jenson. Good head and eye, nice neck into good lay back of shoulders, good ribbing and good quarters, correct coat, I don’t like to see minis thin to keep the weight and these two were super.
