  1. We have to get the same power that the NRA have in your country. Organise enough to combine all field sports under one organization. Then use that to lobby for our interests.

  14. I agree, the only thing this bill will do is undermine the rule of law.
  15. To get an insight into the Ministers thinking on this, these links are to committee meetings on the 22 th and 23 rd of May. I believe from reading these transcripts (They are a bit long) the Minister has his mind made up. I hope I am wrong! http://www.kildarestreet.com/sendebates/?id=2012-05-22.90.0 http://www.kildarestreet.com/sendebates/?id=2012-05-23.294.0

  17. 10, The Minister or Manager of a local authority may for the purposes of enforcing this Act or an EU measure, appoint in writing, such persons or classes of person as he or she considers appropriate to be authorised officers for the exercise of all or any of the functions under this Act. The Local Authority Managers would not be the sharpest chisel in the toolbox. The ANTI's (Green Party) would consider themselves the right Class of Person to control animal welfare. and the Green party, when they were in power did enough to plant their buddies into positions of influence.

  19. Hopefully it will be supported by all hunting and farming people. We need to have our voice heard in relation the the new bill.
  20. 10 Things you need to know about the A.W.B. 2012, 1, A “protected animal” means an animal—of a kind commonly kept for farming, recreational, domestic or sporting purposes on the island of Ireland, 2, That “unnecessary suffering” means, in relation to an animal, pain, distress or suffering (whether physical or mental). 3, Nothing in this section applies in relation to anything which occurs in the ordinary course of— fishing, lawfully hunting an animal, unless the animal is released in an injured, mutilated or exhausted condition, or lawfully coursing a hare, unless the ha
  21. The extent of the Animal Welfare Bill is far reaching for ALL rural activities. Action must be taken now to amend this bill. If we can spread the message that Every Farm, Stable, Kennel and Yard will no longer be under your control. These "Authorisied Offiicers"only need to have a suspicion, and they can enter and inspect. Most of these suspicions can be subjective and minor for action to be taken. Corkman will have my support at this RISE meeting. I hope everyone on THL can do what they can to spread the word. Read the Bill and get informed, it affects you.
  22. That size you like i.e. 14 inches 14 lb is what could reach a Fox in short time. Even a 10 to 12 lb vixen is not squeezing through ever tube in her earth. All animals would want to move comfortably in their den, but when pushed she will squeeze up a redundant side tube. And if you are hunting Fox your dog needs to get into (nearly) every tube, not just the BIG tubes. I think it was Reverend Russell himself you said he liked a 14,14,14 terrier. 14 inch TTS 14 lb weight and 14 inch around the chest. Is there a dog out there who's chest is 20 inch around, and seems to get everywhere, of
  23. I am curious about the increase in terrier size as well. I have seen this tall spanable chest type of terrier work and the legs do not fold up!. In a small tube the back legs are stretched out behind the dog. The dog is virtually dragging his back end through the tube. Foxes IMO take advantage of whatever earth/drain/burrow that are available in their area. In areas where Badger settes are common, terriers can be larger. If the burrows are dug by smaller game (groundhog or rabbit) The larger terrier will struggle. He will get there, but be prepared to wait! No fox hound pack is goin
  24. Working 2 years at what? Will turn away from nothing!! (In Sligo) Why would you pay 300 euro for a 60lb bushing terrier? Am I missing something here?
  25. Correct me if I am wrong but, Aynsley was a stonemason, Dobson was a bobbin maker, Breary was a school teacher, Buck drove a milk wagon. Not every terrier man has to farm the land, just have respect for terrier, quarry and land hunted. Cut the guy some slack, He is trying to do some good. I enjoy your posts but thats not today or yesterday that you are talking about You are right, it was in the past. But then and now we are all different. To be honest when you are digging down in the cold and the rain and happy that your terrier is sticking to his task, It crosses my mind that we are al
