RE: ***URGENT VIRGINIA HUNTING DOG OWNERS***
Although I agee with what you are saying in cases with private landowners and the like Dale, the underlieing problem is the word hounds. Whether it is deer hounds, rabbit hounds, bear hounds, or just your everyday bird dogs is where the underlying problem is. If that law they are trying to put threw is anything like the one they have tried up here with bear hounds a few years ago. There would be no hunting with any type of dog period. They used the term bear hounds to cover-up the rest of what they were saying. If that is the case then no hunters will be able to hunt with any type of dog reguardless of what hunting you do. This needs to be looked at very seriously.
Do you have a link with the full proposed law that they are trying to make there?
