Are you kidding me!!! Not only is this disgusting, horrific and cruel but it will no doubt be paid for with our tax dollars. Whoever or whatever team of geniuses that came up with this idea should be fired! For gawd sakes get a grip people, training dogs to kill animals in a closed pen! 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

This is a cruel and unnecessary practice. Ontario should not be promoting and allowing such a thing. I will not vote for a party that allows such a cruel practice for the entertainment of a handful of people. This isn't hunting for the need of food.

I feel this is a barbaric and disgusting ... both the dogs and wildlife get injured... I thought we were living in the modern world not the middle ages. This licensing should be revoked not have more added!!

I am not in support of the expansion of licensing that allows dogs to hunt penned amimals. This is savagely cruel and an unneccessary practice which was recognized as that, in an attempt to phase out in the 1990's. Read more

I strongly oppose 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 archaic and I can not believe this is even allowed! Read more

Penned hunting facilities are cruel and outdated. At a time when we should be working to protect wildlife and build more robust animal cruelty laws, expanding these facilities would be a huge step backward. Read more

This proposal is extremely barbaric both for wild animals (eg coyotes) and dogs!! Training dogs to hunt coyotes is the most ridiculous thing I ever heard..... we already have dogs whose owners do not train or socialise them so they attack people. Read more

NO. This is just WRONG and CRUEL. Fox hunting was outlawed as it was too cruel for the foxes. What is being proposed does not make sense in this world where species are becoming extinct and we are trying to save the world we live in. Read more

Standards of care for wildlife as in not letting them escape and letting dogs rip them apart. This is barbaric!!! No, no, no!!! Let the dogs learn hunting skills the old fashioned way - on a level playing field. Read more

I am sure there are many other ways to train a dog without the cruel and inhumane process of trapping and confining wild animals for the use and entertainment of people who enjoy killing a wild animal for no use. It’s a sad day if this goes through.
