It is very disturbing that the Ontario government is considering allowing new cruel dog train and trial areas in enclosed outdoor pens where animals such as coyotes, foxes and rabbits are used as live bait to train hunting dogs. Read more

I don’t think subjecting these confined animals where there is no place to escape to being hunted is right. There is no use of these hunted animals for anything but killing for sport.

Your actually going to allow animals pinned and ripped apart! This is so sicking! I would see this sort of sick behavior in places like China not here in Canada. This practice must stop!!! do not allow this to continue. Tracy

I strongly believe that no new licenses should be issued for using captive wildlife to train hunting dogs. This would allow for cruel treatment of the wildlife in question. Animals such as coyotes, foxes and rabbits should not be help captive just to aid in the training of hunting dogs. Read more

I strongly oppose any further issuing of licences for new dog train and trial areas. I strongly oppose the whole idea of maintaining such an inhumane practice in the first place, and expanding it for whatever reason totally unacceptable.

Comment une province Canadienne comme l'Ontario peut promouvoir une telle cruauté? Je n'arrive même pas à y croire que vous puissiez jouer avec la vie d'êtres sensibles. Votre comportement est honteux et inacceptable. Vous devriez plutôt protéger au lieu de promouvoir le sang et la mort. Read more

I think this is a good compromise balancing the needs of the sport and protection of the wildlife. Fenced in areas protect the outside wildlife from straying into the area and being at risk themselves. Read more

I oppose the issuing of new licenses for 'train and trial' areas for hunting dogs. Using captive wild animals to train dogs to kill yet more wild animals does not seem like a humane and responsible activity. Read more

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. Read more

I strongly oppose the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s proposal to allow new licenses, and the transfer of existing licenses, for dog training and trial areas in Ontario. Instead of allowing new applications, the province’s existing 24 facilities need to be closed immediately!

While I understand that the this won't significantly reduce populations of the "bait" animals, I feel that it is inhumane to use rabbits, coyotes, and foxes as bait to train dogs. There must be a less cruel way to train.

I just want it to be known I am 100% opposed to this new change. Canada seems to be going backwards and not forward with their policy and regulations. We’re losing what makes Canada great to live in and it’s an unfortunate thing.
