New York, N.Y. (AP) - Steroids have reared their ugly head in the
unlikliest of places: The hallowed benching areas of the dog show
circuit. The showplace of the world's toniest canines is embroiled in a
steroid controversy brough to light by exclusive photos taken by the
Associated Press Circuit.
The photos show Mr. Parsley, a 4-year old German shepherd being fed dog
biscuits in the shape of barbells by his owner; veterinarian Mary Jane
Snow.
APC also collected crumbs from the treat and took them to their New
York Laboratory. Tests show that they contained corn meal, white
flour, beef stock -- and sphingosine-derived lipids from pit bulls. In
other words, anabolic steroids.
