May I thank all exhibitors for your patience as the judging started so late in the afternoon due to the fact that your breed was moved from Espen Engh to me, and I had to finish first my day’s judging in another ring. I enjoyed this extra task as Dachshunds are a special, classic breed and the challenge is always there to find a good balance - aiming for form and function without any exaggerations. Thank you for the lovely day. -
