Totally agree with seperate licenses.
Add a dog use permit and follow Florida's practices...
HAve the right to CHOOSE!.....
I choose to hunt with dogs and I choose to hunt without dogs...
I should be the hunters choice....

And ya know what... it really doesnt matter.
I respect everones opinions as to why they are pro or anti dog hunting, just the same as I respect their opinions on sunday hunting... but it really doesnt matter what we say on here because its a few major groups and the FB that control what direction the GA vote.

We all have to have a special license to hunt with a Bow or Muzz or XBow .... so why not a special license to use a dog ...... How about $25 for the first two dogs and $10 for each dog after that .......... The VDGIF could make some money with that kind of license ..... Or there might be a lot less dogs in the woods come hunting season ......

If a special license for dogs were proposed, the crying of the VAHDA would be deafening. I think everyone on this site(and others) should propose a special dog license to the VDGIF....that is what I did.

they wont ban dog hunting just for the fact that VA would loose so many hunters which would in return make Va loose a ton of money. But I would agree to pay some extra money to dog hunt, that does not bother me, it would generate more money and one day I hope sunday hunting will be allowed because that would also genertae more money and more hunters.

Notice there is not one person on this board or any of the others who admitt to being a member of the VAHDA. Wonder why that is? None of their members or their BOD seem to think they should come on here and defend many of us consider as an undefenseable position of standing with PETA, HSUS and the Farm Bureau against other hunters. Again wonder why this is so.

When and if the bear tag is split from the current big game license it will cost all hunters more in the long run. Next the deer and turkey license will be split. It will be a snowball effect. I do not understand why the VAHDA and other hunters support this proposal.
