I agree 110% with Sam on this. So many people video now - maybe if everyone would check their video ... perhaps whatever beast did this could be caught in the act.

I am sure that animal cruely is a crime, although I don't know the laws in Utah.

He's home and fine now. Ann spent 5 hours at the vet with him in Layton and ran all kinds of tests. The vet believes he ingested some kind of LSD/amphetamine. He hydrated him and calmed him and told Ann that it would take 8-12 hours to get out of his system. He couldn't do any kind of further testing - state laws, etc because they were only an Emergency Clinic. We did have him do liver, kidney, cbc which were all normal, ruling out an infection or any liver or kidney problem due to the ingestion. He was running a 103.5 temp which vet said is common with drug poisoning. Ann said that by around midnight he was nearly himself. Prior to that he was shivering, shaking, didn't know her and was very edgy - almost hallucinatory (all of which I witnessed myself-and you saw in the ring). A very sad day for her, me and Kobe and for the term 'good sports manship'. I can ASSURE you all that you will see GV Ch. Canadian Ch.Am Select Excellent Ch. Kobe again being himself. We will be sure that he is protected. That is a promise!! And my last words about this are: SHAME ON YOU.
