RE: Running Dogs In VA
To those of you that have a problem with prople running dogs on your property/hunting your leased or owned property make the calls and letters to your head of game commission, your local county commisioners, your news papers, your representatives and don't stop with just a once in two or three year call/letter. Post your land, get names, tag numbers and keep a recorded diary of noted illegal activities. Up till a few years ago there were numerous dog hunting clubs in my area of North Florida and South Bama. Now I don't know of but 2 clubs remaining outside of Eglin AFB. It doesn't take but a few bad apples of dog hunters to ruin it for everybody else. It isn't right, but it is the truth. I use to love dog hunting, but I can see the problems dog hunting have and I can see and admit that the dog hunters brought it on themselves with illegal methods and the common site of a drunk hunter. Again it is a small percentage of dog hunters that fall in this category, but it is the truth.
