I don't think that there is any rule that states you can't withdraw without dog handled.

If my dog is out of hearing in the wrong direction of which the cast is going, I can withdraw and go round him up.

You can withdraw your hound without it being handled BUT are still responsible for anything the dog does until it is handled. See the Advisor 2021 for an instance where a dog was withdrawn while not being handled, got in a fight and was still scratched for fighting
