Ditto Nut, that is correct. Not much one can do that late in the game. Why I preferred the dog weighing light or heavy on that second rest day. Rather deal with that problem 60 hours out than last 24 hours before show time. Can at least better adjust the last feeding and water and know the dog will be completely cleaned out.

I feel this is one of the main culprits that make most dogs run hot. Instead of B-12 shots or some steroids in a limited and small dosage etc. Saw dogs clean out bowels during the show while in holds. Would be hot and breathing hard. None that I saw that did that, ever cooled out or won the dog pull.

Seen this guy many years back, get so upset over a heavy weighing dog, right before weigh in. He takes three large sulfur matches and shoves them into the dog's anal cavity. Says Oh Man, I forgot to wet them first. Pulls the matches back out and sticks them into his mouth. Too get them good and wet. Then sticks them back into the dog's arse. I looked at him, said do you know what you just did? He says what? I said you just double dipped your chip in the Salsa sauce. If you get my meaning. LOL
