Pretty sure I know the answer. But would like Trevor or Allen to say what happens in this situation.
Dog a trees, tree is dead when the judge arrives dog a and dog b are treeing for all they're worth. Judge tells both handlers they have to handle their dog. Dog b stops treeing and takes off unable to be handled. What the heck does the judge do? What points are given, does it matter how the tree is scored?

don't agree. dog never got handled. Let it ride on what ever happens after that tree. fine line. ....If your dog is DECLARED treed. after arriving at tree judge says handle dog but before you can tie it . dog takes off down through woods it will get minus . this dog was not declared on tree and never got handled .

If this was a champion class or running in a rqe type event the dog would be scratched if off game was in the tree. IMO

(h) Dogs treeing but not declared treed, when Judge arrives, will be assigned and minused 25 tree points on off game or slick tree. Dogs shut-out* on strike on slick tree or off game will receive minus tree points only. Refer to Rule 6 (f) for Champion Division casts and off game.


This rule doesn’t say anything about...”if you can catch your dog”. If I’m the MOH when this question comes back, the dog would be misused or scratched (if off game). In the scenario, the dog was there treeing and not declared, therefore he is scored as such. When the judge said, “handle your dog”..that is it, it was determined to be there.

I think dog B would receive 25- tree points as soon as he left the tree because he was treeing when the judge arrived at a closed tree so he would receive next available position. It is up to the handler to get the dog on a lead, the fact that he wasn't handled doesn't make a difference the dog left the tree and needed to be minus. JMO

If it was a circle tree and he stayed hypothetically I think the dogs tree points would be deleted not minus or did the just change that?

I sure would have gotten this ruling wrong. When the judge said handle your dogs. The judge saw him treeing, declared treed or not at that point the judge saw him treed so he is treed, no make believe about it.
At what point did 'handle your dogs' no longer mean nothing?

Farther more if there was off game in that tree and it was a champion cast does that mean dog b was not molesting offgame?

There is so much wrong with that ruling i don't know where it starts or how far we can take it before we stop.

Oh my goodness,, "molesting off game", what a stretch. Now that is sure using a rule. You would have made a great lawyer.

benderb4 is correct. Any time a dog leaves tree, that was declared treed, receives the tree position minus. In this case, you have a dog that was not declared treed so he has no tree point to minus. He rocks on with his strike points still being live.

Not trying to argue here just giving you a different way to think about it. If the dog with first tree was there treeing and the judge said "handle your dog" and the dog run off with a coon being seen would you want the dogs strike and tree points plussed? After all the judge saw him treeing and he said handle your dogs. No he gets minus because he left the tree before he was handled.


Here the dog has to be handled and the tree scored in order to assign points. The dog left before he could be handled so there are no points for him to score minus because he wasn't there at the time to assign them.

Chey I would agree with you but according to Allen , he wouldn't. It can't be both ways. If this dog can be scratched for molesting offgame but some how not minused for leaving this tree I would like to hear it?

Allen/ukc?????

THat's the thing the rule does't say that. You can't score the dog until you score the tree because his score is determined by what is in the tree.

Some were saying because the judge said "handle the dogs" that the dog should be scored as if he was handled.

I used the extreme example of a dog that was declared treed first that left after they said handle the dogs. No one will agree with that. We have specific rules for that and it is clear if a dog leaves the tree before it's handled then it is minus tree points.

In this instance the rules state the treeing but not declared treed will have the strike minused but leaving the tree is not treeing and you have to have the tree scored in order to score that dog. He left before he could be scored and he was never declared treed so it is one of those quirky scoring situations dictated by the rules.
