Open Bitch (3/1) 1 & BB) Mrs J Pitfield, Follyfield Florence. I remember judging this bitch as a youngster. She has grown on so nicely. Drove round the ring similar to BOB. Lovely type, size and character. Nice tight feet, with true movement going away. Level top line held on the move. Well muscled and presented well. 2) Mrs McCarthy, Nagshall The Power of Love. Nice head shape with lovely oval eyes, similar with other dogs from this kennel is the length of loin is longer giving the shape of the dachshund longer and lower.
