I would like to thank Northern Counties Dachshund Association for inviting me to judge at their Open Show. I would also like to thank exhibitors for their entries. I enjoyed my day and I had some really good quality dogs to go over. Lovely to see some quality Veterans out strutting their stuff. Generally, all the dogs were well turned out, and in good condition, there were some dirty teeth and some concerns about size in both miniatures as well as standards.
