I had to explain this to a guy one night after I wrote his dog up. His dog was pushed all night by another dog and finally as most dumb luck would have it, it had enough and fought back and got caught. I explained it this way. His dog was caught in the act of fighting. The other dog was still on the tree, treeing. Interference is when another dog is basically hindering another dog from doing what it is supposed to do, hunt. In the senerio the dog that grabbed the other dog should have been scratched, because you had aggressive behavior and it hindered the other dog from going hunting. If only for a moment. I am a MOH and I would uphold that decision. The call the judge made, I would over turn. Wrong call. Bad brake for you. You should have questioned it.
As far as facebarking goes, it can be deemed aggressive behavior if the judge thinks it is interfering with the other dogs. Remember that a judge makes that call, not a vote of the cast or what one person says. It is a judgment call on the judges part. If he thinks it is hindering the other dogs from doing their job, that dog is scratched. If your dog facebarks and that makes a normally on the wood tree dog back off, that is interfering with another dog. Still, it is a judgment call.
