    getting better here too, the mud is now developing a crust
  6. the point is, stunning is our accepted industry standard a standard that is agreed to be better than non stunning, so why then allow both as all it does is cause a rift in societies. all animals are on this earth as part of a food chain excluding apex predators, we are the only apex predator who consciously chooses how our quarry is killed, if we lived in a place with no guns/slaughter houses etc. and our only tool was a knife and spear then yes that would be a totally acceptable method of killing, but where we have the ability to make the slaughter as humane as possible then why choose to mak
  7. had an old pat bitch that would go up anything she could physically get up when hunting her quarry
  8. i have sent them an email asking them to answer your question
  9. this is a clear case of the government giving in to minority pressure and the issues it causes in our society by doing so, if they had of just said no, our industry standard is to stun prior to slaughter and that's that, then this whole mess of halal/religious/racist and what ever else might have been avoided. the same for face veils.banks and what ever other appeasements have been made,
  10. im sure they will answer that question themselves or even phone them and ask,
  11. you seem to be getting the idea of what i am very badly trying to say but if there is no difference then why did the industry introduce stunning and now in this country considered humane when it would also appear that not stunning is also humane next question is how can a compulsory requirement not be compulsory in certain circumstances
  12. If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.

  13. here goes, light the blue touch paper and stand well back i only ever use heat if their injured or its seriously cold for a prolonged period. never done any of mine any harm and i have never seen them shiver even in some extreme conditions. they never feel cold either despite the temperature, good bedding is essential though,
  14. now that's just silly. the butler did it
  15. hard to beat a fuzzy one
  16. but according to countryfile over % of halal meat is stunned prior to slaughter So the Muslim they asked said, yes. And if saying a prayer while slaughtering in the "normal" way makes it Halal, then so be it. But he also mentioned the hardcore Muslims who insisted that the animals were conscious to hear the prayer. Assuming they speak Arabic. Can you really believe the stun some, and not others to cater for their religion? I don't. What they do and say on TV and what they do behind closed doors i suspect are very different. but the point is it can not be both humane to stun
  17. as i said your choice. no point in moaning about your own choices as only you can change them
  18. but ultimately is there a difference Obviously, yes. " Opportunity ". but on the grounds of a humane ending what's the difference, that dog may well go on to a life worse than death and then would not shooting it would be in humane
  19. thought as much Dan Jon lots to say but nothing interesting how's your dogs bredgot plenty to say my dog ant best breed dog but does good enough for me grandsire is red dog and granddam is peggy from what I got told all that name breeding don't really bother me I think its what you put into a dog in my opinionHe wont be replying bud, he's banned. he was wound up by the usual tossers on here,then when he swore he was banned i know the guy and he walks the walk unlike a lot on here who just talk and talk and talk hes a good lad with some cracking dogs pretty cheesed off he got treated th

  22. Personally? I think it's more circumstantial than black and white. In a 'wild' and raw situation, severing the carotid is better than beating it to death with a stick. But, given the means and opportunity? By all means stun. Remember when poor Jigsaw had a Dog smash its leg, on the mountain? Fortunately, he was carrying a centrefire rifle and did the decent thing, under the circumstances. Is tying an unwanted Dog to a post and shooting it okay? I'd say not. Normal people stun before slaughter. That's as good as we can make it. We try to make it the least bad because we're huma
  23. thats the question im trying to get an answer to
  24. but they do tell everyone they do it so it must be humane so why would anyone else not want to tell anyone
