Canine Chronicle Virtual Dog Show – You Be The Judge!
It is time to put your thinking caps on! For today’s Virtual Dog Show, we are asking our readers to be the judge and place the following Dachshund bitches First, Second and Third AND to tell us why.
The complete AKC Official Standard for the Dachshund is available online here. As quoted from the AKC Standard, the general appearance of the Dachshund is as follows:
Low to ground, long in body and short of leg, with robust muscular development; the skin is elastic and pliable without excessive wrinkling. Appearing neither crippled, awkward, nor cramped in his capacity for movement, the Dachshund is well – balanced with bold and confident head carriage and intelligent, alert facial expression. His hunting spirit, good nose, loud tongue and distinctive build make him well – suited for below – ground work and for beating the bush. His keen nose gives him an advantage over most other breeds for trailing.
If you have 3 dog photos of your own you would like to share for this series or have any feedback – please email Cheslie at cheslie@caninechronicle.com. We look forward to your participation!
