Society had moved past…

Society had moved past archaic and inhumane practices such as this. Just because a practice has been done in the past does not mean the practice should continue without changes. Dogs do not have to hunt animals for the sake of amusement for humans. It teaches dogs to be predators vs companions. As a bird hunter we have never used live animals to train dogs to retrieve. There is no need to teach a dog using captive wild animals. Surely as a society we have moved past such inhumane cruelty. Our government needs to do better than allow this practice to start again.
