Adjusting the topknot to catch a few of those little fine ear hairs to help correct ear set has been done for many years. There are also ointments that can be used under a dog's tail as an encouragement to hold it up. Some will enhance the dogs color with additives. Some also will stuff a dog before being shown to help fill out a thin body. Folks will bring a bitch in season and set up or have it walked around the other male dog competitiors. Will cause some males to not behave correctly in the ring. The list goes on and on.

Talk to an old breder or handler there are a lot of tricks to the trade that have been used over the years to help win. It isn't always the best dog that wins.
