CH “ALPHA” came to us as a puppy from Ada McCord. Ray McGinnis (now an AKC Judge) was our professional handler in 1987 and guided Alpha quickly to her Championship. The judge in this photo is Doug Shipley.
This photo shows CH “ANDY” being awarded Winners Dog (for a Major) by Judge Mrs. Keke Kahn while the Show Chairperson looks on. Bill is handling Andy.

This picture of our CH “ANNIE” was taken in Colorado at Roaring Fork Kennel Club on July 12, 2003. The judge was Mr. Douglas Shipley and the handler was Ric Plaut.

This is a photo of our lovely CH “BARBIE” taking her first major win. The show was Central Ohio Kennel Club and the date was April 23, 1995. The judge was Mr. Michael Sosne and Barbie’s hander was Hannalore Heller.
Barbie was 27 months of age when this photo was taken. There is another photo of Barbie on our wirehaired Dachshund page and below that was taken when Barbie was 143 months of age….still lovely at almost 12 years old!!
As of the date of the following photo, Barbie is the proud dam of 8 AKC CHAMPIONS: CH NUFOREST TOY STORY MW, CH NUFOREST RAG DOLL MW, CH NUFOREST JEEYI JEAUX MW, CH NUFOREST BARBIEZ GUY MW, CH NUFOREST BARBIEZ DOLL MW, NUFOREST BARBED WIRE MW, CH NUFOREST BAR B PISTOL PETE MW and CH NUFOREST BAR B PECOS PETE MW. No wonder Barbie was recognized by the Dachshund Club of America as: the NUMBER 2 TOP PRODUCER — WIREHAIRED BITCH in 2002!

We got CH “Bo” as an adult from Ellen Bourgeois and Mary Karat when they stopped breeding and showing miniature Dachshunds. CH ELENBUSCH RAINBOW’S END MW was born June 4, 1976 and we had him until he was 18 years of age. Bo’s sire was CH MAY’S HAP-PEA TORPEDO MW and Bo’s dam was CH ELENBUSCH HOLLY GOLIGHTLY MW
This red mini wirehair is our CH “BOB”. Doug and Mandy Carlson, professional handlers showed Bob and several of our other miniature Dachshunds to their Championships. This photo shows Bob at HEART OF AMERICA KENNEL CLUB.
