Comment
I strongly oppose the amendment.
The existence of these dog train and trial areas is appalling in this day and age. It is an act of cruelty to allow a wild animal to be hunted with no hope of escape only for the purpose of training a dog.
If a dog needs to have this skill (which I don't believe any dog should outside of its natural instincts), then training it in the wild should be sufficient and would allow the wild animal a chance to escape its pursuer.
Please do NOT make this amendment.
