That is pretty self explanatory.
The entire rule reads......
When dog strikes and trees on a tree or a hole
in the ground where there could be a coon,
yet Judge does not see coon and no off game
is seen. NOTE: In case of running coon in a
hole or place of refuge other than a tree, handler
may call dog treed. However, if not called
treed, cast may proceed to general area, and
track can be considered finished if dogs, by
actions either tree barking or otherwise, show
to the satisfaction of the Judge, coon to be
there. One dog must show end of trail. For
dogs declared treed in a hole or tile, see Rule
3(b) or 4(g), if applicable.
Barking treed and barking because they're scared of getting into water are 2 different things in my mind especially since 1 dog has crossed and is actually treed.
