These enclosures do not fulfill the requirements set out by the Canadian Council for Animal Care to which they are subject ! Therefore phasing them out as planned previously is the only right way to proceed. As a Veterinarian specialized in research on wild animal trapping I vehemently object to trapping for the purpose of training dogs. Holding wild animals in pens and exposing them to such stressful situations is by no means justified. There are no valid reasons for using live wildlife in order to train dogs.
I am absolutely certain that you will have to to pass a review by the Canadian Council on Animal Care in order to build / operate such a ‘training’ facility.
