That's what Ann shared with us earlier last week. She also had a heck of
a time getting the dog back from Canada this past summer.
I wont fly my dogs anymore, it's too chaotic. When they told me I had to
fly Dexter to Denver on a 750, but then would have to drive the rest of the
way because they couldn't fit the crate on a connecting flight, right there
we made up our mind to drive the entire way. No regrets, the dogs were
with me the entire time.

Was this the same dog that had such a hard time being shipped?

Dogs being slipped drugs by a competitor in the dog show world is not new.
But, it is sad that someone has to resort to that. Makes you wonder what
they do to their own dogs. I saw it happen a few times, back in the 80's,
when I was involved with Labs. Speed (amphetemine) Easy to drop into
water or in a treat. Show dogs love bait and expect everyone to have treats.
They don't think twice about accepting treats from people. The dog would
get hyper and unable to focus. One of the dogs in question, was the sire
of my girls. He was a sound as they come and had numerous performance
titles. At the Nationals in Indiana, in 1981, he lost it. He not only bombed
in conformation, he failed his field trial.
I don't know Kobe but I knew this dog very well. He was an awesome dog.
I was a Reserve Sheriff's Deputy at the time and asked that the dog be
tested for drugs. He was and they found Speed in his system. Back then,
there was no investigation by police or anything. The vet lab conducted the
test and it was positive but nobody cared.
This is not a new thing and unfortunately, some people will do whatever it
takes to eliminate the competition. To try to pawn it off on something
the dog may have picked up is almost riduculous. Loose stools ot lethargy is
one thing, personality behaviors is suspect.
NO, it's not time to move on from this issue. Sweeping it under the
carpet only gives newbies and folks like me a very good reason never to show
or
attend a National again.

I agree with what you said Linda totally, people are quick to jump to
onclusions, I just can't imagine that someone in the dog world would do
such a
hing, call me naive but to intentionally harm a dog I just can't imagine
anyone
here would do something like that. I think it was something else that
nfortunately happened. Like you said Linda a reaction to something ???
omething he ingested before the show?? you just never know.
