The Association came into being as
a result of a proposal made by air Vice Marshall Sir Charles Lambe KCB, and Miss
Theo Watts, at that time Chairman and Hon. Secretary respectively of the
Wirehaired Dachshund Club. The first show was held at Tattersalls in 1932.
In view of its success it was decided to repeat the venture and invitations were
issued to the Southern and Longhaired Dachshund Clubs to join the Wirehaired
Dachshund Club in forming an Association in which Smooths, Long and Wires would
be equally represented. Both clubs accepted the invitation and the 1933
show was held under tripartite representation, with an entry of 450. The
registration of the title, "The Great Joint Dachshund Association" was granted
by the Kennel Club in 1937.
The Great Joint Dachshund Show
became an annual event until 1939 when the outbreak of war interrupted the
Association's activities.
In 1946 the Wire and Longhaired
Clubs staged a joint Championship Show for the two varieties. The
following year the three clubs staged a three breed event on the lines of the
pre-war fixtures.
In 1948 the Miniature Dachshund
Club joined the Association. In 1949 all five varieties of Dachshund
competed for Challenge Certificates, the Miniature Wires gaining Certificates in
1961.
