I'll be glad to accept your call to tree your dog. As for the "split tree my dog" part, I just ignore that because the rulebook tells me that is not your decision, that is the judges decision to make. In your example above it would be very obvious that your dog was split treed and any competant judge would card it that way. But as the handler, your only responsibilty is to strike and tree your dog. The judge will decide how many points you go in for and if you don't agree, you are welcomed to question it.
