The Meaning of a Trained Dog’s Restraint When It Sees the Prey

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. It is stated in al-Mughni, al-Insaf, and al-Muntaha regarding the trained dog: it restrains itself when commanded to do so, except at the time it sees the prey. What is the meaning of that, and what is its form?

Answer:
It means that it does not stop because the prey might escape. If the prey is about to escape and it does not stop, that is not disobedience to its owner. But so that the prey does not escape, this does not affect the ruling. Yes.
