The Dachshund world was an integrated part of Kari's and my lives for many years. I have also had the pleasure of serving on the Dachshund Club's committee which I enjoyed very much. I saw that Jane, the club's new Chairman has taken over as raffle supremo, but I don't know if she was as successful as me in getting the Dachshund people to part with their money. Based on this it was a nostalgic experience for me to return to the club as their Wirehaired Dachshund judge. Thanks to the club for inviting me and the exhibitors for supporting me. In general the dogs shown under me were sound and of excellent type. Even if a couple were big enough, size was not really a problem. The fronts were good and most of them had the right keel. I thought heads were a problem; some were two long and narrow, while others were too heavy and short. I didn't see many who really warmed my heart. Some eyes were too big, round and prominent. Wirehaired Dachshund should be alert and speak to you with shape almond eyes. There wasn't many of those around. PD 1 Aventine Jamaica Inn. I fell in love with this puppy and I think he will go on to do great things in the future. He was of ideal size, had a good head, was well constructed and moved with a lot of confidence. Of course he had his fault and he was not in the best of coats on the day, but this one is for the future. BP. 2 Bellavin Invincible At Nosinllor. This was also a promising puppy, but he was too long in loin. He carried himself well and was well developed both ends. 3 Sternchen Rastaben. JD 1 Zlowfox Av Larhjelm At Sunsong. Nice dog with a lovely head. Good neck, moves well, but could be better in front. 2 Teckelgarth Leapoffaith. Also a nice dog, but preferred head on the winner. Good topline moved quite well. LD 1 Fransin Brasilian TP Panttone. This dog had a lot going for him and he pushed hard for the CC. I was taken by his style and presence, lovely neck and superb outline, even if he was a bit long. He has a classic front and he moves around the ring like an athlete. This has to be a champion in the making - RCC. 2 Atahira Joie De Blue. Strong dog of nice type. He is well constructed and he moved well, but I preferred the topline on the first one. 3 Allfreys Rock Of Gibraltar. OD 1 Tendrow Drumm Crazy. I fell for this dog as soon as he entered the ring. He told me to look at him and I surely did. I was taken by his fabulous temperament and his attitude; this is the type of dog you would like to take home. Maybe he is a bit on the heavy side for me, but he is very well proportioned and he moves like a machine. Panttone pushed him hard, but Crazy won the day on his overall balance and charisma. Why he isn't already a Champion I don't know, but his third can't be far away? CC. 2 Ch Barmaud Rufus Ctarleylewis Crooks. This is another high class dog which I liked very much. He is well developed both ends, but he is a bit long and sinks slightly in topline. Rufus moved extremely well, but he would probably look better in heavier coat because he need to be filled out a bit better. Sp Beginners 1 Wirelinc Cooks Companion. Nice type of bitch, but not in the best of coat. Well developed and moves good. 2 Sternchen Rastaben. Small dog which needs more time, not in the best of coat. MPB 1 Linleajo Cherry Blossom. Nice bitch, 6 months. Well developed for age, but tail set a bit high. PB 1 Allfrays Sternchen Alrisha. Promising youngster which I liked very much. Excellent outline, moves very well, one for the future! JB 1 Cishelvine Sea Spray. Another quality bitch of high class. It is a lot to like about her. Good neck and front, but a bit long in loin. Moves very well. 2 Ambiesque Agna. Bitch of good type, but like her to move out better behind. 3 Allfreys Greta Garbo. PGB 1 Wagsford Winona Of Rocinda. Lovely bitch of excellent type. Well presented moved well, it is a lot to like about this bitch. 2 Cishelvine Sea Spray. 3 Derochaise Atlantica To Boloria. LB1 Derochaise Ellegancia JW. This was the type of bitch I like. She has the correct outline and is sound. To be critical I would have her a bit more developed in front and her hind action could be better. She did win the class on type and style which compensated for her weaknesses. 2 Boloria Naughty But Nice. She is similar in type to the winner and she had a lot going for her, but the coat was not good enough on the day. 3 Ambiesque Advent For Brumbnerhill. OB 1 Ch Bystock Black Truffle JW. This bitch was all for me. She is in perfect harmony and it is the right clearance between her chest and the ground. You can envisage this bitch hunting without getting stuck underground. She is in hard condition and is professionally presented. Handler and dog were in perfect harmony. Of course she had her faults, because so had all the greats once. This bitch has class and I was pleased to give her the CC & BOB. 2 Ch Sunsong Wish Upon A Star. Another bitch which took my heart by storm. She has a nice head and superb topline, excellent front and she moves well around the ring. If she had been mine I would have trimmed off some of the hairs under her chest because that would have made her look more balanced. On the day she looked a bit heavy fronted for me, but when I went over her that wasn't the case! This is easy for me to say, but not so easy to do because the exhibitor might be showing her lovely bitch under another judge next week which don't share my view. Having said all this, the bitch is quality all through. RCC.
