disappointed I was told by another dog runner that my hound was scratched because she followed the four wheeler with the coy than someone threw some grease out and they said she was in the grease so someone put her in the catchpen before the hunt was over,I find this wrong I don't think people show consideration for the hounds I believe you should cook after the hunts are over because you have some people that don't care and will through food and wrappers on the ground I find this to be unfair to the hounds and dog runners, I wasn't a ware that a hound could be picked up in put in a catchpen unless the owner said scratch their hound or the dog lad down or was hurt I need the rules if someone has them please email me them thank you hope this helps someone else in this situation
The rules. Lol unless a hunt is run under natl or masters rules then there is no set rules. Sorry about your dog getting put in the pen but there were plenty of dogs who went by the same grease and managed to go on by. I do not believe anyone would just stick a dog in a pen unless it hung around for a while, but you are right unless a judge or owner of hound scratched dog no one should touch it. This might be harsh to say but there might be another issue with the hound other than stray grease. Just my uneducated opinion.
I remember when the eastern n c Fox hunters association run the hunt with what they called a rolling scratch pen . When your hound was scratched he was caught put in a truck and hauled out !!! Them was good hunts !!!
