Born Hunter 17,622 Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 its legal if your digging to fox with terriers for stock or bird protection, providing you have the landowners/shoots permision and you have in possesion a shotgun or firearm for humane dispatch. It's worth pointing out that foxing with a terrier for the protection of livestock is very much illegal. You can only bolt/dig fox with a terrier to protect game birds. Everyone should have this straight if ever the authorities turn up when you're on permission. If off permission then you are fecked no matter the reason. Quote Link to post
