Dachshund (Miniature Long Haired)

MPD (2, 1) 1 Green's Neertanauf Jack Jones. Red dog, masculine, good head, eye and ears, excellent topline and good depth, moved ok but unsettled.

PD(4, 1) 1 Hallsworth's Abydachs Aniseed. Nice type, lovely head and expression, good topline, reach and drive and nice overall carriage for age. 2 Bell's Tolberg Super Ted. Heavier built dog, good expression, topline and rear, ribbing could be better, moved well keeping outline, not the reach in front of first. 3 Green's Neertanauf Jack Jones.

JD(5) 1 Oxley's Dinkidax Grisham. Nice size and substance, modest with no exaggerations, good leg length, topline, underline, ribbing and sound free mover. 2 Brooks' Ralines Romeo At Lyndarlea. Cream dog, big enough, lovely head and expression, topline, nice clearance, ribbing could be better, lovely carriage on the move though front could be tidier. 3 McCarthy's Nagshall Just Santana.

PGD(3) 1 Woodall's Half Century At Rarewood. Dapple dog, clean outline, excellent neck, topline and head, expression ok, good front, depth and ribbing and rear, moves well in profile. 2 Oxley's Dinkidax Goodsoul. Lovely head and eye, carrying a little too much weight which spoiled his outline, good topline, moved ok. 3 Scott's Dinkidax Dawn Breaker.

LD(6) 1 Bedford's Dinkidudlor Jankay Tooray. Nice clean outline and free mover, good neck and topline and well ribbed, head a little plain and slightly domed. 2 McCarthy's Nagshall Oklahoma Sunrise JW. Lovely head and expression, good proportions if a shade deep for me, good topline, excellent ribbing, not so true on the move as first. 3 Mee's Barlaine's Star Time.

OD(7) 1 Graham's Jadag Heir Apparent. Choc dapple, masculine, head head and eye, neck and topline held on the move, good ground clearance, lovely free mover in profile keeping his outline always. 2 Kennedy's Denkena's Solar Flare. Cream dog, a little heavy in skull and not so clean through the neck, but has good proportions, overall a nice dog, but I would just prefer a fraction more leg. 3 Lockett-Walters &Walters' Ralines Red Kuri.

MPB(2, 1) 1 Wood's Wildstar Wromance. So pretty, well constructed and clean outline, sound free mover, lovely proportions. A star of the future and loved that she is still naughty.

PB(9, 1) 1 Lockett-Walters &Walters' Ralines Popping Kandi. Another beautiful puppy, gorgeous head, eye, topline and balanced construction, lovely mover from all angles. 2 Wood's Wildstar Wromance. 3 Rowell's Tolberg Tia Drop At Emmajesk.

JB(7) 1 Halsall's Kiddles Britannia. Very together with good clean outline standing and moving, lovely free mover, very sound, good neck, a shade compact. 2 Lockett-Walters &Walters' Ralines Diamond Cluster. All the comments above apply, except that she is a shade rangy, but otherwise very nice. 3 Metcalfe's Metadale Limoge.

PGB(9, 2) 1 Brooks' Hanishan Eezzy Magic Nite At Lyndarlea. Excellent bitch, not overcoated, lovely, elegant free flowing, so clean in outline with lovely front and balanced rear, good depth and proportions, lovely mover. 2 McCarthy's Nagshall The Power Of Love JW. Another very nice bitch with very similar comments to above, was just a shade cut up in underline. 3 Drady's Jumanda's Silver Sparkle At Indiko.

LB(7, 1) 1 Wood's Jumanda's Replica Of Wildstar. Good proportions and clean outline, head ok, good neck, topline, front and rear, moved well but lacked the reach of the main winners, very nice. 2 Bell's Tolberg Holly's New Edition ShCM. Again good proportions and clean outline, very good mover but first was just a little better in neck and front. 3 Mee's Barlaine's Black Princess.

OB(12, 2) 1 Boyle's Doujac Erin At Zarcrest. Cream bitch, lovely feminine size and substance, firm topline, excellent head and eye, neck, depth, front and rear, really moved well from all angles, excellent quality. 2 Bell's Tolberg Holly's Little Tilly ShCM. Very nice bitch who also moved very well, very free and overall good construction, just a shade rangy in her outline. 3 Mourton's Dinkidudlor Isha Aurog At Eldmour.
