I do know of a dog that was baited during the measuring for his BST. The dog kept trying to slink away from the wicket as he was scared of it and also was sensitive when the measuring tape was brought out. The only way they could get that dog through the measuring portion was to bait it and this was suggested by the judge. The dog did pass the BST.
I do not know what the rules state however. Best wishes on passing your BST!!!!!!
