How would one seed a dog that rails from the traps, then it goes out wide coming into the second bend, then comes down the final straight in the middle of the track?

Inside :thumbsup: thanks for the sensible replys :thumbsup:wild whippies said:Not sure whether you want a specific response from an individual or a general opinion?
Personally if I was the owner I wouldn't seed.
My reasoning being if I seeded the dog inside and it went wide at the 2nd bend, it has a high likelihood of making contact with a dog that is an all out inside runner.
My other reason would be the dog isn't favouring any particular side throughout it's race.
How would you seed it Geoff / everyone else?
I agree totally with what mutley has put it is bizare and ridiculous to judge a dogs seeding on the second bendmutley said:watching were the dog goes straight after coming out of the traps if its severe to left then its a seeded dog same as with if it traps out and goes directly right then surly its seeded right :- " quite simple really once up the straight then any experienced bend dog will go for a space to its advantage so seeding really applies only to the first bend thats if its a genuine seeding :- " and not for owners advantage as far as no seeding Steve would you be happy if your dog decided it wanted a side and thus being thrown out because it crossed :- "

Thanks, chris.

Being thrown out for interferring and thrown out for crossing are 2 seperate things-
So yes-I'd be happy if mine were thrown out for interferring-----not crossing.
Pity more aren't-had many a race with rogue dogs that others turn a blind eye to.
