I dont know, thats a good question. I feed em buckshot all the time though.

No. This spring I contacted the GW and .....after he inspects the damage they're doing, he will issue you a special permit, or you can hire a Pa certified trapper to remove them.

They are protected. Unles you have damamge from them then the PGC can issue a permit.

They are not covered under a furtakers license . They are protected, Just be eaiser to train your dogs. Once time should be enough to teach any dog.

Once time should be enough to teach any dog.
While that might be true from the perspective of a human, it obviously does not apply to the average hunting dog.

What training procedure would you advice dog owners to use to train their dogs to avoid porkies?

same methods that you use to keep your dogs from running deer or any other non target species.
