Rats are placed in aerated tubes and hidden in bales of straw. No rats are ever harmed since they’re kept in sealed tubes. The tubes are also large enough so the rats can move comfortably, and are often filled with soft bedding.
Barn Hunt is a sanctioned sport under Barn Hunt Association. (BarnHunt.com) In this sport, the dogs hunt for a live rat in a pic tube that is safe for both animals. The tubes are hidden in stacks of straw bales in a fully enclosed ring. Dogs will indicate to their human where the rat(s) is. The dog then needs to go through a tunnel build of straw and climb on a bale to complete the timed run. Titles are awarded for qualifying runs at sanctioned trial. RyeDoodle holds trials multiple times a year!
