Mark hankinson found guilty today. Is it the beginning of the end for hunting with dogs\hounds?

To imagine you can have an airtight 200 person webinar is foolish, the verdict has obviously been timed to coincide with national trust vote etc. I'd say it was fairly obvious he was guilty. Death by arrogance?

Very much so. Feel sorry for packs that rely heavily on nt and forestry commission land

But then if it wasn’t for there input would we be allowed to run a rabbit? Or accidentally catch a fox daytime on permission? Or put a terrier to ground? I agree they have shafted the running dog with no support for them.

the rabbit is clearly because theyre a pest of upto plague proportions, the accidental fox was to cover the hounds without saying hounds in the act and the terrier to ground is purely to make gamekeepers lives abit easier so the lord can continue to have his shoot. 

hounds and guns have done f**k all for lurchers; the only slight exception would be someone that does both; every poaching documentary is based on running dogs and how theyre the dog of the career criminal. tbh i hope it all gets stopped because since the ban all hunts have done is keep hunting in the light which would have faded and been forgotten by now.

I don’t know many keepers even keeping terriers now easier to use rifle with nv. The average lurcher man ain’t going to do a great deal of damage to the so called plague you talk about. But it kept the beagle packs happy. And obviously being able to hunt a wounded hare with as many dogs as you please. And the coursing lads ripping up fields and ramming gates haven’t kept running dog owners in the spot light?

I didn't say keepers keeping terriers, but that clause was purely put in for game shoots. 

The whole act was built to please the minority with money that had influence and pretty much f**k the lads with running dogs.
