I would like to thank the committee for my invitation to judge Standard Wire Haired dachshund. It was an enjoyable day and the huge ring provided allowed the exhibitors to showcase there dogs movements to their best. From the exhibits I had one the day all has fabulous temperaments, such a happy outgoing breed, all were in fabulous condition and well presented it is apparent the Wire exhibitors put every effort into maintaining and presenting their dogs. There were a couple who could have stronger rear ends and unfortunately I did find a couple of level bites.

Junior Dog (2)
1st:  PHILLIPS Ch Tendrow Will to Succeed, super smart boy with the most stunning head, in fabulous condition with super harsh coat, well balanced with correct front and shoulder. Moved true coming and going. 2nd: DAVIES Atahira Finale another super smart boy who excels in rear drive, super bone and feet. Correctly made shoulders however feels he needs slightly more maturity for his shoulders to go back as lost his front a little on the move, a lot to be desired about this boy.  

Post Graduate Dog (1)
1st:MATTHEWS Sonham Fire Cracker, well balanced boy on the stack fab length of neck and correct head carriage on the move. Nice sized boy and not over done. Good length and spring of rib. Would prefer a little more length of upper arm.  

Limit Dog (2)
1st: SANDERS Knottsrose Olaf this boy was in peak condition and presented beautifully. Hes super balanced and not over done. He moved true coming and going and held a strong topline on the move, a very balanced dog.
2nd: RUSSELL Collidach Russell Leeves another presented to perfection with a good hard coat. Super head with correct proportions, and correct eye shape, his biggest asset being his super powerful back end which he used well on the move. Preferred the front movement of class winner on the day.

Open Dog (4,1)
1st: ROWE Ch Boloria Goodnight Mr Tom JW lovely sized dog nothing overdone, sound head leading into a good length of neck allowing for correct head carriage on the move, excels in front and shoulder with plenty of prosternum. Good length and spring of rib allowing for a gentle underline. Moved true coming and going with good reach in front. Presented and handled to perfection. DCC
2nd: MOORE Cloudside Vincent really lovely this boy, super smart head with correct proportions and dentition. Good length of neck leading into correct shoulders, Lovely proportions with nice long ribbing and a short loin. Leading into this boys biggest asset he has a super conditioned strong back end allowing for powerful drive. Unfortunately in his class I felt he didn’t move as well in front as he could do not reaching out as well as the class winner. Upping his game in the challenge awarded the RCC without hesitation.

Plenty of prostenum, and super long ribbing giving a gentle underline and sturdy topline both held well on the move which contenting with a super waggy tail. BPIB
2nd: SIRRELL Drakkina Dragon Song another with the most lovely outline, super pretty bitch with super sound angles for and aft.

Text book shoulders with correct angulation mirrored on the back end aswell, moving true coming and going, strong contender in the challenge RCC.

Correct proportioned head with strong correct dentition, enough length of neck, her front and shoulder is so correct which is mirrored in her rear angles. Your hands just glide over this girl, Fantastic length and spring of rib and a temperament to die for. Then she moves! This girl could move all day super powerful rear end and plenty of reach in front. BCC & BOB, thrilled to hear this made her up.
2nd: PATERSON Brumberhill Biscuit to Ambiesque another beautifully made girl, all the same attributes of the class winner a little straighter in crook, but that is nitpicking she is beautifully balanced with a super feminine head, correct size, did not put a foot wrong and the move, one to watch, lovely quality class.
