Petition Muzzles for dogs involved in Chase Hunts

More details

Make it law that for dogs involved in Chase Hunts or Lure Coursing to be muzzled to prevent so called 'accidental' kills and injuries to pets and wildlife.

A law needs to be enforced to ensure that dogs running loose as part of a chase or coursing should be muzzled.

All hunts taking part in any Chase or Lure coursing should be responsible and fined if a dog is seen without a muzzle.

Wire dog muzzles would not affect the dogs ability to pant after running or drinking, but would prevent biting.

Muzzling would also protect domestic pets from being attacked by dogs as well as wildlife.
