Don't get me wrong, I'm all for making sure I know which dogs are fighting before I scratch them. I've heard of 3 and 4 dogs fights before, so just because there are more than 2 dogs in the area of a dog fight does not give them all a free pass.
I just don't like the idea of a blanket statement that says you have to see them fighting, to scratch them. We've all heard of people that go blind in seeing a coon, next thing we'll have is people that don't see 2 dogs rolling, right in front of them. Or, it will be, "that don't sound too good, lets wait a few more minutes before we go into the tree..."
As far as thats what it takes to play the game, thats crazy. The reason some play the game that way, is only because they can get by with it. Scratch them when it happens and some of these guys will dial back the aggressiveness in their dogs, which is what they should be doing, anyway.
