It gave me great pleasure to judge BIS for The Dachshund Club Of Wales, held in conjunction with the Welsh Kennel Club Ch Show.

Unfortunately because of timings of the Groups in another part of the showground, the judging of BIS was delayed. 

I was delighted with the Best Of Breeds sent through for my appraisal & competition was very strong. I was certainly spoilt for choice.
