Question For The Judges
NKC Little Pack Rules.
4-dog cast.
The hounds are cast, dogs A-B-C and D.
Dog C opens and jumps a rabbit in view of the judge and handlers. A hot and powerful race around the hillside....pounding running. Then a check, which dog D claims and moves out on, the rest hark in and the race is back in order. Another check some time later and dog C claims and moves it out and the race is again back in order. With no breakdown, suddenly dogs A and B split from dogs C and D. Dogs A and B are seen running a rabbit also.
Which 2-pack of dogs does the judge order the handlers to get back with the other 2 dogs and which 2 dogs does he stay with and keep scoring?
Elementary?

It "appears" simple, the way you have it written. It appears dogs A&B are on a spilt and should be ordered brought up by the judge. However, it is solely the judges decision, he/she must determine which two dogs are running the original scoring rabbit, and which dogs are on the spilt. What appears clear to the handlers, may not be so evident to the judge. The handlers may all have an opinion on which rabbit is the scoring rabbit,and which is the spilt, but the only opinion that counts, is the judges, and his decision is FINAL.

I have not read the other posts past the first.
The judge has to stay with the original rabbit.
If the judge is not sure which is the original, then he should have the dogs handled, put on one track and then score from the first check.
If he is not 100% sure which is the original rabbit, he should not be scoring. If he knows which is the original rabbit, then keep scoring and yell that you need dogs A and B in the race.

I agree.

After each check, all dogs were packed up together running. And without a check, dogs A & B split on another rabbit.
Interesting responses so far!

Darrin,
Now that you say they split on another rabbit, I would keep scoring C and D. Key being another rabbit, I take it you are saying C and D are still running the original rabbit.
In the original post you said A and B were running a rabbit, not another rabbit. Am I understanding you right now?
