Another article and excerpt:
"In what could become the biggest scandal in Crufts’ 124-year history, three-year-old Jagger collapsed and died on Friday, the day after coming second in his class at the world’s most famous dog show.
Tests found that Jagger – pedigree name Thendara Satisfaction – had eaten cubed beef laced with up to three poisons.
However co-owner Dee Milligan-Bott believes the intended victim was four-year-old Noodle, pedigree name Thendara Pot Noodle, who won best of breed on the day Jagger competed.
The two almost identical looking dogs had switched places on the benches where entrants sit before and after going in the show ring at the NEC in Birmingham."
This article says more deaths have been reported.
With Pedigree Dogs Exposed and the resulting veterinary intervention, dog shows seem very controversial in the UK.
