Hele pū ka hui i kahi papa pilikia: ʻo ka ʻīlio ma ke kauoha i kuhikuhi ʻia e lanakila i nā pilikia, a ʻo ke kanaka, i kapa ʻia he alakaʻi a i ʻole mea hoʻokele, alakaʻi iā ia. I kēia hihia, ʻae ʻia ka hopena i ka holoholona ma ka leo a me nā ʻano. ʻAʻole pāpā ʻia ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka hoʻopā, nā mea pāʻani a me nā mea pāʻani ma kēia ʻano aʻo.

ʻAʻole wale ka loiloi o nā luna kānāwai i ka wikiwiki o ka hele ʻana i ke ala āpau āpau, akā i ka pololei hoʻi i hana ʻia ai nā hoʻomaʻamaʻa. Hiki ke hoʻokō i nā hopena kiʻekiʻe ma ka agility wale nō ma o ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa hoʻoikaika ʻana, ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa maʻamau a, ʻo ka mea nui, ʻo ka ʻike maikaʻi maikaʻi ma waena o ka mea nona a me ka ʻīlio.
