I cannot believe the naivete of some of you. Drugging has been rampant for years.I wonder who on the list remembers a specialty in Houston ( back when specialtieswere huge ). It was the end of a long hot day. As the judge lined up the winners,she announced to the whole crowd that we Texas people needed to give our dogsa bit of an upper, adding that the handlers could probably use one, too. I had onevery prominent judge tell me that I needed to give my bitch a dexadrene becauseshe had too good a temperament to show well. Those of us who have seen these dogs who cannot stand on all fours in the ring, but are leaping and lunging, excessivelypanting, recognize that bit of overdose. Some things simply never change.
