Special thanks to the Committee for the invitation to judge, to my steward Alice Ann for keeping my ring well organised and the exhibitors for their entry.

Puppy (2,1) 1 & BP Blackburn’s Stargang Desert Orchid, 9 mth red bitch with a lovely head and expression. Good length of neck, good pro sternum and excellent front and rear angulation which she used well on the move. Would prefer a little more ground clearance, but overall a quality youngster who just needs a little more confidence to show off her attributes;

Junior (3,0) 1 Kent’s Lokmadi Magic Dragon, red bitch with a very pleasing head. Good front angulation, rib cage and underline. Holding her topline she moved soundly to win the class. 2 Starkey’s Carpaccio Black Obsidian at Hamoura, B/T Dog just out of puppy. Good head, neck, shoulders and return of upper arm. Not as sound going away as winner. 3 Jenning’ Ayseebee Diamond Sky for Jenion

PG (4,0) 1 Melbourne, Carrol & Paget’s Melriding Sea Infanta, B/t bitch just out of junior. Super keel and underline. Best of rib cages with short loin, well angulated front and rear, moved soundly; 2. Kerry’s Kireton Hebe, Preferred her head to 1 and she has good ground clearance, but couldn’t match the shoulder set and length of upper arm of the winner.

Limit (3,1) 1 & BOB Hutchings’ Stargang Hot Cross Bun for Collidach, I have quietly admired this one from the ring side and was delighted to see her here today. This is the one I would take home. For me she is the whole package, superb breed type, of sound construction, showing off her many attributes as she moves effortlessly round the ring. Fully matured now she is up there with the very best and certainly worthy of the highest honours. Enjoyed watching her win RBIS. 2 Melbourne, Carrol & Paget’s Siouxline Goldilocks of Melriding, another quality bitch with much to admire. Very pleasing head, balanced throughout with a very good ribcage. Unlucky to meet 1 today.

Open (4,1) 1 Kent’s Lokmadi Goodnight Irene, nicely balanced b/t bitch with good front and rear quarters which she used to full advantage on the move striding out soundly and effortlessly. 2 Melbourne’s Stargang Sea Fever at Melriding, lovely head and expression, good front, excellent rib cage, preferred the movement of the winner.

Std Smooth Dachshunds

Puppy (3,0) 1 Lucas’ Tramardachs Dunkirk Dustup, 9 mths red boy who gave his handler a hard time. Excellent head and eye, strong neck and super front assembly. Moved well; 2 Bethel’s Hampdach End to End, 6 mths red bitch who is more refined than the winner. Super head and eye, long neck, good pro sternum, good ground clearance and balanced front and rear angles. Having far too much fun and being very naughty making it very difficult to assess her soundness. 3 Chauhan’ Raajput’s all about humanity

Junior (1,0) 1 Lucas’ Tramardachs Milkcart Driva, 9 mths red boy, lovely head and neck, good upper arm and rear quarters, good underline. Slightly longer on loin than I like although he held his topline well on the move.

Novice (1,0) 1 & BP Lucas’ Hampdach Dr Watson, Extrovert litter brother to 2^nd in puppy and much of the same comments apply. However, he managed to string enough steps together to allow me to see that he can move well when he wants. Behaved much better later on to win RBPIS.

PG (1,0) 1 Stringfellow’s Oxondachs Amethyst at Silvatica, B/t bitch with lovely head and good dark eye. Good rib cage which was well ribbed back, short loin. The most compact here today.

Limit (2,1) 1 Chauhan’s Wanderhund Viva Las Vegas, 19 mths b/t dog with lots to like. Good head, neck, super front with decent rib cage. Overall very nice dog but just too long on loin for me.

Open (3,0) 1 & BOB Patersons’ Phaeland Second Delivery to Ambiesque, Mature red boy who has a beautiful head, liked his overall make and shape, very balanced and he moved out very soundly. 2 Kerry’s Kireton Beau Diddley, another overall pleasing dog who could move out well. Super front, good ribbing, slightly longer on loin but pushed the winner hard. 3 Stringfellow’s Sontag Silvan Sorcerer
