Rule ?
What is a clear rule on scratching a dog for not hunting ? We were on a cast tonight, standing on a dirt road dog in question was in the road off and on most of the cast. When he wasn't you could hit him with a rock. Everyone had different idea of what it would take to scratch him. If it had been mine I would have been embarrassed withdrawn and beat the day lights out of him.

15.H. Not Hunting, Fifteen (15) Minute Rule - Dog(s) failing to go hunting during any fifteen (15) minute period of hunting time will be scratched. The handler has the right to walk any dog not hunting in the direction the guide wishes to hunt. If dog is handled at a tree during this fifteen (15) minute period, the time should be paused and then continued after dog is recast. A dog must be gone for five (5) minutes to be considered hunting, unless the hunt expires. Anytime a dog(s) is called struck that has opened, the fifteen (15) minute rule will be broken.
Prepare yourself and your hound. Hunt the dog, read the Blue Book, and your Good Book!
