Ontario is considering allowing new penned dog hunting facilities, referred to as “dog train and trial areas”, and the transfer of existing licenses. Penned dog hunting involves keeping foxes, coyotes and rabbits in enclosed pens where hunters train their dogs to hunt wildlife and run competitions. Read more

Penned dog hunting involves keeping foxes, coyotes and rabbits in enclosed pens where hunters train their dogs to hunt wildlife and run competitions. This inhumane and unethical practice subjects captive wild animals to cruelty, abuse, and suffering. Read more

I firmly reject the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s proposal to allow new licenses and the transfer of licenses for train and trial areas in Ontario. Penned dog hunting facilities are cruel to the wild animals that are subjected to various methods used to train dogs to hunt. Read more

I did not realize that we had train and trail areas in Ontario, until it was mentioned on the news last week. I think it is cruel to trap rabbits, foxes and coyotes and put them in a contained area where they can never leave to train dogs for hunting. Read more

Opening applications for train and trial spaces after 25 years is a massive step backward into the past. These facilities have no place in Ontario. Instead of opening new applications, the province’s existing 24 facilities need to be closed immediately. This practice is inhumane and disgusting!

Please do not bring back this inhumane practice. It needs to be phased out for good and I firmly stand against this proposal. Let’s do better and be better, and continue on with a kinder, humane Ontario.

I am totally opposed to the proposed change to the Amendment to the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act, 1997, that would allow new licenses and open up the transfer of existing licenses for the training of hunting dogs. Read more
