As far as the rule goes it is up to the judges discretion. So if the judge says he is hunting then he is hunting if he says he isn't then he isn't.
He might be referring to when the cast takes off on a deer or fox and the young dog in the process of being broke comes in scared and is afraid to leave for fear of getting shocked. Now before everyone jumps with both feet to say, "that aint what they're supposed to do, yadda, yadda...they are supposed to just go find a coon no matter what, yadda, yadda..."
Well, yeah, O. K. they are, but I would not ever fault a young dog that refuses to run off with the rest of the pack to chase off game and comes back scared because he thinks he is about to get lit up.
I agree, trash is a training problem, but it is not quite that simple with the dogs. It is that simple with the trainers and they should not be putting trash runners in hunts without some sort of repercussions besides the inconvenience of having to recover a lost dog.
Now the rest of you can post about how your line of dogs don't run trash....
