blackdog4 75 Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 (edited) That handbook DD has been dis-continued by the IWTF. It was written in a hurry by some one not fully fluent on some details but meant well. A booklet will be done in due course probably after the final readings of the Animal Health and Welfare Bill 2012 and then we'll be more up to date on current laws. You'll find that most fieldsports organisations do publish some literature on their chosen sport regarding the law. Anyone here in the ROI should educate themselves on the code of conduct written by the Master of Foxhounds Assc. regarding the working of your terriers and keeping yourself out of trouble. The IWTF also has their code of conduct available to download of the web-site, iwtf.ie. Hope this helps. stop end and alote of other good men done more for the I.W.T.F than u have and now u r runing him down. or r u saying stop end nows nothing Edited August 23, 2012 by blackdog4 Quote Link to post
BIG G wheton machine 1,594 Posted August 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 lads i mean something pocket size and quick simple referencing that should be forwarded to police stations so they can be educated by it too and as a precautionary measure, as joe public are everywhere and as many of you know the countryside is getting smaller. and its not always possible to ring the lawyer or clive rees at a moments notice. it would stop any agro and i dont mean hang out your windows shouting i hunt etc. and 9 times outa 10 many a man will be hung drawn n quartered even before the police/uspca arrive as they will no doubt have been reported as badger baiters Quote Link to post

Not allowed to mention Fraternal Org. Now !! so why are you handing out leaflets when most of the public dont give to hoots lol.........................surely you would be better educating at events with country folk who take an intrest and are generally like minded people who understand the countryside..................it all depends whats on the leaflets.................no one would be handing leaflets out to folk about digging etc when they dont understand the reasons etc.................i can understand a general guide to country pursuits but i thought we were on about digging............................could be my bad Quote Link to post
