Ban hunting with dogs in northern Ireland
Stop the use of dogs for hunting any and all wildlife. Bring about harsh punishments for those who break these laws.
Dogs have long been used as a method of sport to rip up and kill animals after a prolonged chase to complete exhaustion. It is contradictory to the long held views of the people of Northern Ireland who by large are highly conscious of animal welfare.
People gaining joy out of the prolonged suffering of a defenders animal is not acceptable and it's time this barbaric practice was put to an end once and for all.
