Evie's Pedigree

Oh, Evie! LOL! We say that a LOT around here, along with 'Evie-Peavie', 'Evil', 'Evis' and my fave, 'Ebits'. Evie and her littermates were, at the time, the culmination of a breeding I had imagined in my head since Reilly (Evie's great-grandsire) was a puppy. Sometimes things don't work out exactly as we plan, but sometimes things are even better!

Evie is an absolute joy. She is funny and sweet and one of the kissiest Dachshunds we have ever had. She is killer on small game and smart, smart. Evie is one of those dogs that will make us work hard in order to stay ahead of her! We really do love these kinds of Dachshunds.

She has a fabulous front shoulder assembly in profile and has the best shoulder angle and set we have seen in awhile. We really like her rear, which is nicely angled and moves beautifully, especially away. Her head could be better (it's 'cute'). We would like to see more ribbing and a little tighter elbows. In type, she reminds us much of her grandsire, Maximus, though her conformation is far better. She has the sweet temperament of both her dam, Tania, and her sire, Guinness, who was bred by my dear friend Carol Henning. A big thanks to Jen Abersold for pushing me towards keeping the 'red girl'. Already, I cannot imagine my life without Evie...she's just one of those.

Evie started her conformation 'career' at 8 months with her first show, at which she went Best Puppy in Breed. A couple of months later, on her second weekend out, she took TWO back to back four point majors her second and third times out! Then, two more weekends of showing (RCKC and SCKC) left her winning 4 out of 5 days and 6 more points. She finished in 10 shows (one more than her housemate, CH Ryan). Of course, Field Trials and continued Earthdog are de rigueur in this house and Evie probably has some more events in her, too. Time will tell if 'mom' can find more time!
