Geraldine ( Madam Dodge),as we called her, was a remarkable wealthy
woman,who was a real dog person. She was an early member of the GSDCA and had
interests in all breeds of dogs. German Shepherd Dogs were her real love. She
hosted
at her home,on her beautifully groomed grounds ,the Morris & Essex Show. She
served refreshments on china and drinks in crystal to all exhibitors,laid
out on tables covered with linen table clothes and silver and flowers. Ernie
Loeb handled our Ch. Cuno von der Teufelslache under Madelaine Pickup from
England. This lady judge put on white gloves to examine the dog's testicles. I
may have told this story before,but she had a hearse rebuilt to house her dogs
when she and her kennel man traveled to show dogs. Station wagons,Vans,Motor
Homes didn't exist then. The AKC has revived the show,but of course it's not
the same--- Helen Miller Fisher
