Deliberate poisoning of dogs at Crufts?

[Catherine]

There seems to be a lot of rumor and speculation and hearsay.
I think it will be impossible to sort out the truth until the lab result are in.
The only thing that is clear is the fact that Jagger died of poison and of course they know when he died. The meat in his stomach was the source of the poison. I am surprized that he was cremated when there is an investigation going on. What if they need to re-examine tissues or do further tests?

It would be odd if there was undigested meat in his stomach from the day before. Was he not fed in that length of time? I don't know how long it takes a dog to digest food, but they seem to be always hungry so it must be pretty fast. The dog could have eaten the meat on his last walk. Maybe the poison was put out to kill unwanted animals. Some people do poison what they like to think of as vermin. An unsuspecting dog would eat any meat he found.

I wonder if there is any proof to the rumors about other dogs being sick?
