Dachshund ( Long Haired)

 PD (3) 1 Chick’s Neropa Black Magic. B/t, very promising, loved his head, lovely expression, dark eye, excellent keel for one so young, low to ground, well boned, good ribbing, well bent stifles, moved true fore and aft, in good coat. 2 Cooper & Steadman’s Darsoms Zuave At Merrygarth. Sound red in lovely condition, masculine head, dark eye, good reach of neck and length of back, neat front, good ribcage, preferred hind action and angulation of one, moved well. 3 Dicker’s Abydachs Licensed To Thrill At Sochorlong.

JD (2) 1 Burke & Manston’s Bonavoir Cloneylogan. B/t larger than I like but his overall balance and movement won him his place, head a little heavy but a good shape, excellent keel, low to ground, level topline, good hind angulation that enabled him to move with drive. 2 Page’s Chipperfield Brigadier. Red with attractive head and dark eye, good length of neck and back, ribbing carried well back, level topline, moved well going away but rather wide in front, slightly short of upper arm.

ND (4) 1 Darsoms Zuave At Merrygarth. 2 Jordan’s Resurgam Moonlight Sonata. Rather apprehensive on the day, well bodied, level topline, well angled quarters, not the elegance of one, moved soundly.

PGD (12) 1 Lawrence’s Peverleigh Mr Stripe. Quality red with lovely head and expression, dark eye, good length of neck, good shoulder, tight elbows, good depth of ribbing, level topline, sound quarters, moved true with drive, not overdone in any way. 2 Garman’s Albaney Black Buckanear. B/t, larger than one, masculine head, dark eye but showing a little haw, good length of neck and back, excellent keel, well bent stifles, moved well, preferred front movement and ribbing of one, in good coat and condition. 3 Furneaux’s Voryns Fellini.

LD (6) 1 Edwards & Pankhurst’s Danward Sibelius. Very neat well balanced b/t of correct size, moved absolutely true fore and aft and stood true on the table with no evidence of being cow-hocked, unlike so many other males here on the day. Attractive head and eye, lovely expression, excellent forehand, tight elbows, fitting against good ribbing, well turned stifles, short hocks, moved with drive maintaining his outline, liked him very much, sound all through, pleased to award him his first CC. 2 Booth’s Abbalongdat Angel Eyes. Red of quality, good head and eye, long neck and good length of back, excellent keel and ribbing, well bent stifles, level topline, overall well balanced, moved well but closer behind than one. 3 Andrews’ Darsoms Zarius At Isanhurst.

Elegant b/t of quality, love his head and expression, darkest of eyes, good neck and keel, neat front, ribbing carried well back, level topline, well balanced all through, good hind angulation, short hocks, moved with drive, well presented. Res CC. 2 Mitchell & Hanney’s Frankanwen Sundance To Bronia. Another very nice male, masculine head of good shape, would like slightly darker eye, good length of neck and back, excellent keel and ribbing, good depth to body, sound quarters, not quite the angulation of one, overall a well balanced dog, moved with drive, well handled. 3 Chapman’s Witchespell War Lord. Sp Beginners

D (4) 1 Walkley’s Rosenket Royal York Sundown. Rather disinterested in showing, overall balance ok, level topline, masculine head, moved close in front.

MPB (4) 1 Oxley’s Owlery Golden Splendour. Thought this red baby was just lovely. If she carries on the way she looks now she will have a very promising future. Pretty head with expressive dark eyes, good length of neck and back, low to ground, well placed shoulders, tight elbows, neat front and feet, good ribbing, balanced all through, sound quarters, moved well with drive. BP. I was pleased to hear that she went on to BPIS. 2 Clarke’s Tekalhaus Kruggerant. I also liked this puppy. very much and thought her extremely promising, beautiful head of correct shape, excellent forehand and length of back, deep ribbing, well turned stifles, short hocks, low to ground, in fact she was fairly similar in overall balance and outline to one and I’m sure they will often change places, she moved with drive but a little erratically, and this cost her first place. I loved both these puppies and wish them well for the future. 3 Chappell’s Hilmar Velvet Zella At Glenedee.

Quality red baby in lovely condition, attractive head, dark eye, nice expression, good shoulder placement, excellent keel, neat front, level topline, ribs carried well back, good depth of body, well bent stifles, kept her outline on the move. 2 Sutton’s Dolan Cupid Golden Dawn At Damai.
