3 dog cast
dog A called treed almost out of hearing
dog b trees 50 yds from cast
dog c on track
time runs out on dog A but only 1 min. left on dog B handler of dog c advises non hunting judge we have to go to closest dog first (dog b) and tie him back then go score dog a come back and score dog b and since there is non hunting judge we cant split up ( I dont say nothing cause I am handling dog b and thats fine with me ) so we let dog b finish his 5 walk to him and here comes dog A to tree with him then dog C shows up but is still tracking not bothered at all with us shining the tree never looks up and judge and handler of dog C do nothing but handler of dog C advises me we cant squall at all because it will interfere with his dog so since I cant squall and dont have a squaller I didnt argue circled big ol tree and went about my buisness
but I would say there were many mistakes made what do you think
I think first of all we should have started toward dog A right away to be able to get to it within 5 cause it was so far away when I treed dog B we should have been halfway to A dog C came into tree but doesnt matter if he was treeing or not should have been handled someone could squall after 7 min just as the rules state and even if we had a non hunting judge we could have split and I could have gone to my dog B if the judge agreed and the cast could go to dog A Didnt really effect hunt like I said I can't squall and I don't know of any rule that says the rest of the cast has to do it if they dont want to and why would they want to if they arent gonna get anything for the tree dog C quite track later on so he got minused his strike anyway
