Northern Counties Dachshund Association
Thank you to the committee of Northern Counties Dachshund Association for their kind invitation to judge this charming variety and to the exhibitors for the bringing their lovely dogs. I was delighted with my winners who fit the Standard well. There were one or two with kinked tails which affected placings. Temperaments were generally good. I thorough enjoyed my day.
Veteran D/B (2,0)
1. Ch Tolburg Beez Kneez at Teckeltown (Mason) Such a quality bitch in fabulous coat and condition. Feminine head, dark almond eye, conformation spot on, level topline stacked and on the move. Handled to perfection. BV
2. Ch/Irish Ch Ralines Sazerac (Woodvine-Shone) Super headed boy, with very little to fault, animated and free moving. A credit to his owner.

1.

Showed well, good temperament and well presented.
2. All For Show (Bater) Completely different type with plenty to like just needs more confidence and a little more presence, would prefer slightly better angulation for balance, good length of rib.
3. Zircon Vanilla Ice For Arlatdax JW (Morrin and Barbi)
