Re: Re-Cutting when dog (s) are treed

I would like to offer one piece of clarification as to what is being stated on this recast situation.
I'm pretty sure you only have the "option" to keep your dog on the leash, so long as at least one other dog is out competing for a strike. If all dogs that were once treed, have been scored, and that last dog finally gets declared treed, you no longer have that option.
But I guess it is possible, "but not probable" that you could conseivably make it all the way through a cast after the first tree, so long as someone else keeps choosing to cut loose, and never are the two dogs loose ever treed at the same time.
Pretty odd chance of that happening, but I guess it is possible
I see what your point but this is what is says:
. Upon being scored, dog(s) must be
turned loose with other dogs that are opening
on trail to compete for next available strike
points. However, if dog(s) are already treed,
handlers have the option to hold onto or
release dog(s) so long as at least one dog is
not declared treed.
It doesn't say he gets to stay on the leash until the original dogs that were treed are scored. However UKC gets to make the interpretations and because they haven't done this one yet that I know of then who knows what they will do.
My opinion is he gets too but shouldn't be able too. It;s a loop hole that allows him to not compete and stay on the leash as long as he has his lead.
