Its sad that we still do this for sport.
I was out one weekend, In all my camouflage.
Cant remember who was shocked more me or the dogs when ooops there suddenly was a big branch in their way.
The fox went home happy though, and as much as i know i may have been wrong. The dogs was not hurt. but even so i would do it again

if hounds show no aptitude for this they are put down. The rules after the "ban" are being very bent and not much sign of anything different round here.

The law that got passed was so watered down its pointless. There are so many loopholes that anyone with a good lawyer - ie the well off people or there well off friendsthat partake in the hunting will be able to get away with it. Doesn't heklpthat even when the law is broken the police arent interested

and there was me thinking the ban had worked, and most fox hunting has stopped

I find it repulsive, abhorrent and utterly cruel to hunt poor, defenceless baby animals. It sickens me to the core. I can feel a major rant coming on. I've said it all before, there are some sick scum in this world.

Because of the foot and mouth outbreak all forms of hunting are supposed to have been voluntarily stopped. Clearly this is only window dressing by the huning fraternity who are still hell-bent on killing wildlife for fun. Many hunts are still hunting in the old, now illegal, way. It is importatnt that everyone who is opposed to this cruel "sport" lobbies their MPs to have pressure brought upon the police to enforce the act. Why is a large section of the rural community being allowed to break the law with impunity? Is it because most of them are rich and influential?
