Thank you to the Officers and Committee of The Smooth Haired Dachshund Club for inviting me to judge Miniature Smooth Haired Dachshunds at their Championship Show on 20 April 2024 and for a well organised show and to the exhibitors for their entry of their lovely dogs who made a record entry for this show. Thank you to Pam and Anne my stewards for their professional help, and thank to my dear friend Lovaine Coxon for her hospitality and thank you to Sue Tomlinson for all her help.

 

It was a privilege to judge miniature smooth dachshunds for my first judging engagement England where the quality of the breed is renowned. Because the entry was so big and the quality so high which made my decisions more difficult, hence the length of time I observed them on the move. Thank you to the exhibitors for their patience.
