Hound Association of Scotland Championship Show 2016

Dachshund (Wire Haired)

I would like to thank the committee for inviting me to judge at their show, I had a very enjoyable day.

J 1 Binks’ Cishelvine Just This Once, a promising puppy of correct size, good front with a strong prominent forechest, held a good level topline at all times, well angulated hindquarters, she should do well; 2 Maxwell’s Bardrestan Quantum Leap, 1 year old dog who presented a good outline with prominent forechest, he held a level topline at all times, super coat, just preferred the rear angulation of 1, he moves slightly close behind, that’s my opinion. RBD. L 1 Maxwell’s Bardreston Queen O’The South, smart bitch with a strong prominent forechest, good tight feet, strong, long neck into smooth shoulders, a well ribbed up body & well angulated rear, in correct coat, sweet expression. BB; 2 Binks’ Lesandnic Sarafina, preferred the topline & rear angulation on 1, has a prominent forechest & was in correct coat, good length of ribbing, sweet expression also. OD 1 Coverley’s Ch Aventine Jamaica Inn, loved his head & super front assembly, compact & well bodied with well angulated at both ends, super coat & good tight feet, his topline was level at all times, lovely temperament. BOB; 2 Kennedy’s Strabathie Dextor, I preferred the rear movement of 1, super coat & tight feet, felt he lacked in front construction & would of liked more neck, sound moving dog, level topline.

OB 1 Coverley’s Ch/Ir Ch Aventine Shaken Not Stirred, a 5 year old bitch who presented a good outline, super coat & good tight feet, long neck flowing into smooth shoulders, correct body & length of rib, parallel action coming & going holding a level topline at all times, lovely temperament too. RBB.
