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.
Penned dog hunting facilities are cruel to the wild animals used to train dogs to hunt.
Wildlife should never be taken from their natural environments and held captive by hunters.
It is inhumane to use rabbits, coyotes, and foxes as bait to train dogs.
New licenses for dog train and trial facilities are a huge step backward for animal welfare. These facilities have no place in Ontario. Instead of allowing new applications or the transfer of existing licenses, the province’s existing 24 facilities need to be closed.
