Past Brood Bitches:

Jamie v. Stolzenfels, SchH1, CD, KK1 2a, OFA-GS-19063F27F-T, GS-EL3092-T. 11/20/84 to 12/02/96. Jamie was my foundation bitch and was the mother of Jette and Delfi. Jamie was a daughter of 1979 East German Sieger Bodo v. Gräfental and Wilma v. Stolzenfels. She was bred and raised by the Fidelco Guide Dog Foundation. She loved to work and was a High in Trial winner. She was an excellent brood bitch who stamped herself in her progeny. She won 1st place in the GSDCA's 1989, 1990 and 1992 Annual Training Achievement Award for Dams and was ranked in the top 10 for 7 years! She was the #1 cumulative winner for 1988-1990 and was in the top 3 for 10 years!

Hodenhof's Jette von Fernheim, SchH1, CDX, TD, HT, HCT, TT, OFA-GS-22668G24F-T, EL-3098-T. 12/01/86 to 10/24/96. Jette was a daughter of Jamie and 1978 Vice Herding Sieger Gauner vom Kirschental. She was the mother of Gundi and grandmother of Obi, Xara, and Yanni. Jette was a dog who did it all -- Schutzhund, AKC obedience and tracking, and sheepherding! She was a High in Match winner. She was also a wonderful producer. She produced a son who was a stud dog for the Monks of New Skete for many years and another son who sired many progeny who were used not only as guide dogs but also became producers for 3 different guide dog organizations. She ranked in the top 10 of the GSDCA's Annual Training Achievement Award for Dams 5 times from 1992-1998 ranking #3 in 1994 and 1995! For 7 years she was one of the top 6 cumulative point winners!

Delfi von Fernheim, SchH1, CDX, TD, HIC, OFA-GS-26959G24F-T, EL404-T. 09/13/88 to 04/03/01. Delfi was a daughter of Jamie and Siro vom Seeblick who got "V" scores in the Bundessiegerprüfung 3 years in a row and was rated "V" in the Sieger Show 2 of those years! Delfi was an enthusiastic worker who remained energetic till her final days at the ripe old age of 12 and a half years old.

Gundi von Fernheim, BH, CDX, TD, CGC, OFA-GS-31320G24F-T, EL1392-T. 05-02-90 to 11-11-03. Gundi lived an active and healthy life for 13 and a half years and is greatly missed. She was a daughter of Jette and Quindt vom Baruther-Land and granddaughter of Jamie. She was also the mother of Obi and Yanni, and grandmother of Greta. She was a great brood bitch and produced some wonderful puppies, including a daughter who was a brood bitch for the Monks of New Skete. Her great love was tracking. She found a gold watch that a friend had dropped while laying a track and found my son's camouflaged pocket knife by tracking where he had walked in an overgrown lot more than 24 hours later during the heat of the day while 7 weeks pregnant!!! She was head of our canine family at Fernheim GSDs for several years! Gundi tied for 10th place in the GSDCA's 2003 Annual Training Achievement Award for Dams and has ranked in the cumulative point winners for 8 years!

OFA-GS-45038G26F-T, EL-5595-T. 01-04-94 to 08/04/06. Dora was personally chosen and tested for me in Germany by Peter Wörsdorfer and imported at the age of 14 months. I trained and handled her and put all of her titles on her myself. She had super prey and defense drives and was a fun dog to work, but she was also affectionate and people-oriented. She had 5 litters of puppies including one pup who went OFA Excellent! Dora was a granddaughter of Falko von Haus Sindern and had lines to Greif zum Lahntal, Nessel vom Busecker Schloss, Ignaz vom Oberscholvenerweg, Benny vom Heideloh, and Jonny von der Rheinhalle. She lived to the age of 12 years and 7 months old.
