Sophie at Exterior Bedömning

2025.08.30-Today was sister Sophie’s day to be “Very Good.”🥈Sophie has been sitting home and working on her hunting skills while her siblings were in the show ring. Today she and I went to an exterior bedömning hosted by the Halland Kennel club. Sophie had happy feet on the damp grass, but overall did well and got a very nice critique. ☺️ We will spend a bit of time in the coming week preparing for more grass walking instead of jogging, and hopefully get excellent next time around.💖

Female with good proportions, strong head, could have been a little nobler, good shoulders, neck and back in standing, a little loose, moving, well-developed body, deep chest, could have a little more ground clearance, good bone structure, good legs & hindquarters, good step, good fur quality.

Moniker Admiral in Backamo

2025.08.24- Backamo Dog show, 🇸🇪 Lasse (Moniker Admiral) made his show debut in Open class. He was a bit more interested in smelling all the scents than showing (what to expect from a hunting dog😅🤭), but he behaved well and got Very Good 🥈with a very nice critique! For a dog that never set foot in a show ring, I’m very pleased.💚
Now hunting season is around the corner and we will aim to get him a merit and try our luck in the ring again in hunting class next year.

Thank you to owner Anders for joining at the show today.

Lasse’s critique

DACHSHUND, WIRE HAIRED NORMAL SIZE, Male, Open class

“male of good size, strong masculine head, suitable eye color, substantial muzzle, slightly thin lower jaw, tight topline, well-developed forechest, deep chest, could have more ground clearance, moves ok from the side, tight behind, well-carried tail, difficult to judge movements in front.”
