U.

Hare coursing with a dog is illegal in England. How ever you can use a dog or dogs to flush a hare from cover to waiting gun or guns or Birds of prey. on land you have a legal permission to be on. Dogs can also be used to track an injured hare for humane despatch by the quickest and most humane method available at the time.

Yeah you have to get a dead hare,smack the dog over the head with it reapeatly whilst shouting no bad dog then tie the hare to the dogs collar for 24 hours.

no mate your better off with 6 dogs more chance of catching it

There's a world of difference between actively looking for hares to course and your dog chasing and killing one when you're out and about. The law is all about intent.

U.

the hare is bigger and faster and harder to catch during daylight than the rabbit, also has longer ears, just show this to your dog and he will be fine, you should have know more problems, unless he,s a saluki cross in which case a drawing will be easier,
