Do not allow these facilities!
• These facilities cause unnecessary suffering for animals. Wild animals should be able to live a life worth living, and these facilities would be an unacceptable standard of living. Imagine living in fear your whole life. How awful!
• Using dogs to hunt wild animals is a cruel practice. Whether you support hunting or not, we can all agree that some methods are more vicious than others. Methods where dogs terrorize other animals are unacceptable.
• Use dogs for good work and let them live in homes as pets. Training dogs for rescue, detecting cancer and helping with tracking endangered species exist and use a dog's capabilities to contribute to society. Using dogs for evil practices such as sport is morally wrong.
Incidentally, these dogs trained to do good work (i.e., cancer detection, search and rescue) all live happy and enriched lives in homes. No facilities are necessary for dog training. Dog training facilities propagate abuse because no one sees what's happening behind the gates. Dog training is not regulated, so too much abuse already occurs in that field by "trainers" who have no credentials.
