He struck his dog at 1 minute 10 seconds, but he gets 6 minutes to bark. This rule is very subjective and is probably misused more than any other rule. PKC needs to clarify what moving track out of area means.

The rule states carrying a track out of the area. That is the definition of the rule. The dog must carry a track out of the area to the satisfaction of the cast and judge. While we can't put a time or distance on carrying a track out of the area, we must all use our best judgment to determine this.
