Comment
I strongly oppose the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s proposal to allow new licenses, and the transfer of existing licenses, for dog train and trial areas in Ontario.
The proposal is inhumane- to use rabbits, coyotes, and foxes as bait to train dogs is cruel and unnecessary. Dogs can be trained without using wild animals as props and we urge you to consider that we are not the only sentient beings. Foxes, coyotes and rabbits feel pain and experience fear.
The existing facilities should in fact be shut down immediately rather then considering to open new facilities and give out new licenses. Giving out new licenses for dog train and trial facilities is such a step back for our society. I am saddened that they exist in our province, these facilities have no place here in Ontario.
We urge you to not accept this proposal.
