I was disgusted to read that there are existing areas in this province where dogs are trained to capture and kill penned animals. This is a barbaric practice as it stands. I was even more horrified to learn that there is a plan afoot to increase the number of these areas. This is a cruel and unnecessary and unfair practice. I am not a hunter and know little of the "sport", but I cannot understand how training a dog to shred its prey is in any way beneficial. I sincerely hope this savage practice is not allowed to extend any further t itself han it already does, and I would like to suggest that the existing pens be dismantled. The proposal is presented in disingenuous, "government speak" language in an unwelcoming website to navigate, and hides the actual meaning.
