She was quite a woman. And she had an awesome "Doggy Limo." I hate to admit to being that old<G> but I was privileged to know both of these very well--"Madam Dodge" through Jane Bennett,.who was a very close friend of hers,and of course with my Ch. Cuno Dog at Morris & Essex. And I handled for Ernie a number of times,and he handled the Cuno Dog. Also my first husband Sol,and I stayed at Ernie's home when we visited him. Those were such great times for me ,just starting out in GSDs.The GSDCA was relatively small then( I was membership chairman then) so everyone knew each other. By the way,I saw that Doggy Limo,and all her helpers that drove her to shows and took care of the GSDs. I was in awe,believe me!! Great article also.
