New virginia deer-dog regulations?
If anyone is interested in saving deer-dog hunting in virginia, then check out the website for "Georgia Outdoor News". The state of Georgia has worked out a comprimise that will help preserve hunting with dogs, while preserving the rights of landowners. Sounds pretty cool, and would be nice if Virginia could do the same. What it consists of, is containing dog hunts to a minimum of 1000 continuous acres, with penalties for breaking the law. Clubs would have to "file" for a dog hunting permit, one which keeps the hunt on their own lands, and off of private lands! Dogs would have to be tagged, as well as vehicles and hunters. If anyone is acting against the law, they will be easy to spot, if they are legal, they can hunt as long as they like. Sounds like a "win-win" solution to me. How about you?
