Hattie the Dachshund and Crufts

Meet red long-hair 'Hattie,' and her human Fran Mitchell, of East Boldon, UK. Hattie made it to the final eight in the Crufts competition, but didn't win best in breed like her father and grandfather did before her. You're still a wiener Hattie! Excerpt from Sunderland Echo: Fran said: "She didn't do as well as the rest of her family but it was still absolutely brilliant. It is a wonderful thing to show off your dogs. Some people say Crufts is just another dog show. It's not, it is the best show." Read more about Hattie and Fran at Sunderland Echo.
