    • Note: The size and age are useful in order to better understand of the incident.

    • For example, a 15 lb dog leaves the ring to chase after a 60 l b dog: The 15 lb dog repeatedly grabs at the larger dog's legs, making contact several times, and avoids attempts by the handler to catch and restrain it. The larger dog tries to evade the smaller dog, but eventually does react, biting the smaller dog and causing a minor wound. In this scenario, even though the smaller dog was injured and the larger dog was not, the Committee would most likely find that the smaller dog should be penalised (initiated the incident, multiple attempts to bite) and the larger dog should not (was not the aggressor, attempted to avoid the smaller dog, showed some degree of bite inhibition, and was clearly provoked Anyone witnessing any act of abuse or aggression may fill out an Incident Report / lodge a complaint. For AAC representatives , Trial committees, Judges , it is not only our responsibility but our duty/obligation to report incidents to improve safety/ fairness at AAC events.
