events co-ordinator 353 Posted November 27, 2011 Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 I'll tell you how it works in Scotland if you are working your dogs legally with permission carrying out legal pest control you can justify your actions if however you are operating ilegally you do not have any justification and any injuries your dogs sustain will be classed as unnecessary suffering as you had no legal justification for your actions. A lot of people forget if you work dogs you may have to justify what you do in court. Quote Link to post
SON OFF SHAM 34 Posted November 27, 2011 Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 Well it's well within the law in n.Ireland to dig foxs and dispatch them with a lurcher. The issue is uspca are using this unnecessary pain and suffering act, because they have FCUK all else they can do. Clutching at straws !! Maybe I've been informed wrong, though I believe the Internet could have been a BIG factor in that happening today in bfast. 1 Quote Link to post

SON OFF SHAM 34 Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 If you are after a legal definition I pulled this off the internet; The words “wantonly or unreasonably” do not appear in the other offences of cruelty. In the 1993 cases of Hall v. RSPCA and RSPCA v. Isaacs, which were decided on consecutive days, the Divisional Court held that, based on a close reading of the wording of the second limb of section 1(1)(a), an offence under that limb is committed only where the suffering of an animal: (a) was unnecessary, in the sense of its not being inevitable despite proper husbandry, and ( resulted from the unreasonable acts or omissions of the defendant. In real terms, it means what ever RSPCA can convince the magistrates/judge it means. There are numerous cases cited on the Self Help Group webiste (www.the-shg.org) where a terrier received excellent medical care from its owner. It was stated in court (and admitted by the RSPCA's own witnesses) that the animal would not have received any better care from a vet. However, the prosecution still suceeded on the basis that the animal was not taken to a vet. If you have a child and that child sustains an injury which is within your ability to treat (grazed knee for example) would you still take the child to the doctor? Of course not. But the RSPCA expect a dog (or other animal) to see a vet for any injury, no matter how minor. And they are prepared to expend millions of pounds every year attempting to prosecute those who disagree with them. That's it in a nutshell. Well said mate. Quote Link to post
unlacedgecko 1,466 Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Can someone explain "unnecessary suffering" ?

I believe the point Waz is trying to make that the reluctance of the UK Government to tackle the badger population is resulting in widespread bTB in badgers. This is turn is being passed onto cattle which suffer before being destroyed. It also causes huge amounts of suffering to beef and dairy farmers. If the badger was a game animal, as in Europe, then hunters and terrier men could control the population for free, instead of costing the estimated £1.5 million per hectare the cull is estimated to cost. 3 Quote Link to post
whin 463 Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 very true that last statement ,got a few farmer freinds here and in newry and hear in scotland they have problems with tb ,over there but he suspects not just badgers over crowding with cattle in sheds in winter causing him problems maybe the badger starts it of , with cleaning his beds out and full of urine and piss and cattle eat it then infect it he doesnt like badgers full stop , ye the badger should be classed as a game animal for his pelt and sporting ways , they used to have old books on badger digging was like a sporting day out terriers ,food , diggers , must had been a good day back then i think they had lots of white terriers russel types , its legal in the states to dig badgers ,the american badger is more of a loner ,the hunting ban cruelty ban ,has cost this country a lot of money ,al the charity funds who are bigged up thi nking there police all conflab with each other just police men with a sspca badge they go to ireland try and educate the police , even tho thats difficult lol do whatever you may and keep it to your close freinds 2 Quote Link to post
