2 nd 37 - Hayes’s Ottnott Doreen Martha

overall picture of 1, lacking a little in substance.

Smooth-Haired Dachshund

Open 3,0

1 st 39 – Gaskin’s Ir Ch Dovestream Who Killkenny IR JCH

Dog. 4yrs. A nice class, headed up by a masculine boy with lovely forechest and balanced

throughout. Held his topline nicely on the move. Was clean up and down and excelled in

profile movement. Shown and handled to advantage. BOB

2 nd 40 - Gaskin’s Ir Ch Hapdach I am the One and Only at Dovestream

Dog. 2 ½yrs. Slightly finer in head than 1 but still a lot to like. Good arch of neck. Clean up

and down. Lovely movement and could easily swap places on another day. RBOB

Long-Haired Dachshund

Junior 1,0

1 st 46 – Riseborough’s Abydezi Stand in the Light

Bitch. 12mths. Conical in head and very aware of her surroundings. Ok in forechest. Nice

coat and well-turned out. Crumpled on the table and movement was hard to assess as

handler wasn’t in full control.

Post Graduate 1,0

1 st 44 – Foley’s Beauty Long at Clavennae

Bitch. 3 ½yrs. Happy disposition. Good forechest and front assembly. Would prefer a touch

more drive on the move. Pleasing head and expression; correct coat. Had her paws in the

cookie jar, but still a lot to like.

Open 3,0


1 st 43 – Cross’s Breezelyn Long Way to go to Loggeta

Dog. 2yrs. Stunning male. Beautiful head and expression. Correct almond eyes. Nice

substance throughout, good forechest. Lovely in profile movement. For me this boy is the

complete picture, and easy BOB today.

2 nd 42 – Bailey’s Glasvey Double Trouble for Loggeta JW VW

Bitch. 8yrs. Well-muscled, belying her years. Feminine, nice head. Nicely angulated. Correct

coat and handled to advantage. Of undeniable quality but couldn’t compete with the on form

dog today. RBOB

3 rd 45 – Foley’s Loggetta Wynn by Myles at Clavennae

Worth a mention. Nicely angulated with good reach and drive, showing nice profile

movement.

Min Wire Haired Dachshund

Junior 3,0

1 st 47 – Foley’s Bimini Alfie Moon at Clavennae

Dog. 17mths. Certainly the most balance of a lovely class. Super head and expression.

Nicely angulated, super overall make and shape. Good muscle tone. Excelled in profile

movement, got his head down and just went for it. BOB

2 nd 50 – Kirkwood-Emery’s Helydon Xeptional Xaya

Bitch. 13mths. Still very much a baby but when settle moved very well. Pleasing make and

shape. Handler had a job of it today, but coped well.

3 rd 51 – Kirkwood-Emery’s Helydon Xtra Xpecial

Dog. 13mths. Nice front. Still some finishing off to do. Well-handled.

See 2 nd in Junior

2 nd 48 – Kirkwood-Emery’s Helydon Radiant Rivva

Bitch. 3yrs. Nice, harsh jacket. Sufficient forechest. Has a tendency to sink into her back

legs in repose. Moved well in profile, but not quite the overall picture of 1.

Open 1,0

1 st 49 – Kirkwood-Emery’s Ch Helydon Tartan Talula JW

Bitch. 2 ½yrs. Balanced and proportion with harsh jacket. Nicely angulated with good

forechest. Nice overall make and shape. Went well in profile, but I was disappointed that she growled at me on the table on the day. 

RBOB

Min Smooth Haired Dachshund

Puppy 1,0

1 st 56 – Carter’s Russetcopse The Fig Cheese

coat, well prepared. Sufficient front and moved with purpose.

Junior 1,0

1 st 54 Carter’s Russetcopse Figaro

Dog. 11mths. Although standing alone, this dog was certainly worthy of his place and award.

Nicely balanced, good angulation front and rear. Carrying sufficient muscle. Moved with

purpose in profile and steady out and back. BPIB

Post Graduate 5,1

A difficult class; one of compromises.

1 st 63 – Williams’s Rozamie Tiger Feet

Dog. 22mths. Masculine head. Adequately angulated and nicely muscled. Level on the

move with good reach in front. Profile movement was okay but was a little untidy behind at

times. RBOB

2 nd 57 – Foley’s Loggeta Lucky Swirl at Clavennae

Bitch. 21mths. Enough forechest and okay in balance. Would prefer more stifle but moved

okay.

3 rd 61 – Watkinson’s Whitewebbs Excalibar

Open 4,0

1 st 59 Watkinson’s Logetta Boom and Bust

Bitch. 8yrs. Won through on her overall conformation, which showed in her superb profile

movement and lovely reach and drive. Lovely head and expression, in lovely condition.

Enough daylight under her. BOB

2 nd 53 – Bailey’s Loggeta Establoomigsall

Bitch. 2 ½yrs. Racier than 1 with a lot to like. Good front and balanced in rear. Well-

1 st 68 – Whitnall’s Cankasper Bells and Bows

Bitch. 9mths. Head is still maturing and still very much a wide eyed baby. Good coat and

nicely turned out. A touch too much arch over the loin at the moment. Coped well with the

jets that went over, albeit it took her moment to settle.

Junior 2,1

1 st 69 – Whitnall’s Hoopydax Raiyne or Shinte


Bitch 9 ½ mths. Nice head and expression but does need to grow into her ears. Nice feet,

and good overall balance. Lovely in profile movement, with nice drive from the rear out and

back. Still a little untidy but a lot to like. BPIB & RBOB

Post Graduate 1,0

1 st 66 – Millington’s Cunannun Coat of Many Colours

disposition. Is sound but not the angles of 1, so not quite the movement.
