If a dog is called out in a cast to be measured can the
owner withdraw that dog before he goes to the stand ???

I believe if you do that the hound is automaticaly considered oversize and sent in to the ARHA.

Do they run 13 and 15 inch dogs together in LP trials in ARHA.

yea, they run em all together

i have read and re read the rules it does not say any thing about what happens if you do scratch your dog from being measured like it does if you scratch your dog for running deer. Although i would say if you scratched your dog you are pretty much saying he is guilty...But as they say the rule book is the bible' no rule no rule broken thats my .02

If you have to scratch a dog because of it's size then you deserve what you get.



Just skirting the rules.... people who do it deserve what they get!

if you go to http://www.arha.com. little pack rules vll. breed inspector #9 it will applay to this situation.

9. When being measured, a hound shall be standing in a natural, alert position with
its head up but not stretched upward and with its feet well under the hound and
forelegs vertical. The hound shall be placed on a non-slippery surface at floor or
ground level. The hound shall not be required to be posed, or set up as in a bench
show pose by the measurer. The Breed Inspector may request the handler’s
assistance in getting the hound to stand up. If the handler refuses to help
then the hound is scratched and turned in to the ARHA Office for being too
tall.
