I have an issue with anyone showing a dog that is sick enough to need meds,
but I guess some have to win no matter what.
I have to agree with Pat.......it goes to that little detail, the
appearance of impropriety, never mind whats best for the poor dogs. Even
scarier
if the owners know.

That could very well be Kathy, but what if it wasn't Gas-X? I think we
need to police ourselves and ask when spotting someone "pilling" a dog
prior
to a show. If it's innocent, then no one should have any quams about
disclosing what the dog ingested. In this day and age of cell phones
that do it
all (pictures/videos, etc.) we have the means to document any wrong doing
and report it. If we as exhibitors/spectators would confront those we
witness drugging their dogs/client's dogs and not put it on "ignore"
because it's
done by a big name handler/breeder or a friend, then perhaps our sport
would
get cleaned up and our dogs would not be put at risk. I believe it's
called
ethics.

Pat
