the big chief 3,099 Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Personally I think the lurcher lads will be left in the shit once again if some variation of hunting fox with dogs it will only be for the hounds definitely not for the lurchers but we live and hope 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Born Hunter 17,763 Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 What about hare coursing and hunting deer with dogs ?? Under that dirty proposal, they're still illegal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BGD 6,436 Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Not really much to get excited about at all but it's a step in the right direction Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lamper121 239 Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 The way I read it is that it is just allowing more than two dogs to flush the fox to a waiting gun etc. this won't help Lurchermen at all Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jeemes 4,484 Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Anyone who is a member of the CA and owns lurchers should be getting in touch by writing or email to the CA making sure we are remembered,because the Hunting lot have a habit of coming to us when there in the shit but then having short memories afterwards.. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Born Hunter 17,763 Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 This won't help anybody. Is there a single pack that goes out with only one couple now? They all go out with a full pack. It's bollocks, useless, opens the doors for more important loopholes to be closed and completely gives up on full repeal. It's a pro hunting move but a step in the wrong direction as it ends all hopes of repeal. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lamper121 239 Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) Just got an email from CA asking to re-lobby to ensure the vote is a yes for the proposals and that they support the move saying basically it's good enough!?!!
