9th June 1937 9th June 1937 1/0 9th June 1937 Leutstetten to 27 Queen Square, Bath Dear Madeleine! Thank you so much for your letter. Please excuse that I did not write for such a long time now. Baby thanks you very very much for the nice book you send her and your letter, she was so pleased to get it. She would have answered since a long time, but she has to learn now a lot and has really no time, so she asked me to write instead of her. I have been speaking and writing French the whole time now, so I forgot my whole English, you must excuse the bad writing. I have been in Lindau at the Bodensee for some time now to visit cousins of mine. I spent a charming time there, we had beautiful weather and made a lot of excursion looking at old castles, beautiful churches and visiting some other relations living near by. Once we went sailing when there was much wind, and we saved a poor man who had fallen in the water with his boat and was very tired and cold. Here it is very hot too and we could bath already. Muck and Loll are at Lindau now. Ludwig is at Sarvar in Hungary now, but he will come back next month. Yesterday I was at the opera with Mami, we saw Salome by Richard Strauss, I don’t like it very much, but it was very well played by Hildergard Ranczak who also played that part often in England. We went to sail some days now, when there is nice wind. Ludwig took part in the racings of sailing boats and won every time, he is very good at it. I hope you are all well. Baby was so glad to get your nice book, please take this letter also as her thanks as she really has no time. Best greetings, Deidi Contact Brief History to inform us of additional information regarding this page

24th December 1940 Dachshunde e.V. (FSD) 24.12.1940 Dachshunde reverse.jpeg 24.12.1940 Dachshunde reverse.jpeg 1/1 Official cover for the 'Fachschaft für Dachshunde e.V.' sent to the Office of the Public Prosecutor in Düsseldorf. Ref: 24.12.1940 - 14/73 Fachschaft für Dachshunde e.V. In 1906, the Teckel Club joined the umbrella organisation 'Cartel of special clubs for hunting and working dogs that kept studbooks' founded in Frankfurt am Main, which from 1925 became the 'German Cartel for Dogs' (DKH). As the second German representative, alongside the delegate Commission (DC), the cartel in Paris was a founding member of the Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI ) in 1911. Due to the political-cultural synchronisation from 1933, the DC and the DKH as well as the 'Association of Associations for the Testing of Working Dogs for Hunting' (JGV, later JGHV), which was split off from the DC in 1899, were dissolved and became the 'Reich Association for the German' with all other dog breeding clubs. The Teckel Club was also dissolved in 1935 and 3 associations kept family registers for Teckels: the DC, the Teckel-Club and the Nutzckel-Club. There were also 3 clubs that kept breeding registers for dachshunds: the rabbit dachshund club, the club for long-haired dachshunds (which, according to the assumption at the time, developed through cross-breeding with quail dogs) and the club for rough-haired dachshunds (which, in particular, through cross-breeding Wire-haired Pinscher (Schnauzer) and Dandie Dinmont Terrier emerged). With the formation of the 'Fachschaft für Dachshunde eV' (FSD), the organisational plurality was ended and the testing and breeding system was centralised. The FSD was subordinate to the RDH, and from 1937 to the 'Reichsbund Deutsche Jägerschaft' (RDJ). However, club life came to a standstill in 1939 due to a ban on gatherings. After the RDH and RDJ were dissolved in 1945, the exhibition, testing and breeding system for Dachshunds was reorganised.
