I heard tonight that the game & fish is looking to outlaw hog-dogging in Arkansas. They are supposed to look into it at the Mar 20 meeting. Make your voice heard.

+1......if theres any truth to this, then the agfc is a bunch of hypocrites

 

[josh4666]

the hog numbers will go crazy

 

[Ben Moffitt]

A fellow called about a dog I have for sale and mentioned it. May not be any truth to it but the AFG&C is meeting on Mar 20th to discuss rule chages and set seasons.

They arent considered a game animal so I wonder what the reason for banning them would be? (if its true)

 

[Gooch]

First that I have heard about this. Need to find out for sure before the 20th.

 

[Manybeards]

Sounds like a rumer to me.

Mo. Rules

I have heard that the same thing is being talked about in Mo. I just don't understand how they can pass it without making the use of all dogs illegal.:smack:

 

[searkhogfan]

If so, ALL Dog Hunters need to join forces to fight this...........


If the AFGC doesn't Acknowledge Wild Hogs as a Game Animal. I don't see how they can try to Regulate the use of Dogs to hunt them.........

It would be like the Game warden trying to give me a Ticket. For using my Mama's Weenie Dog to tree our Neighbor's House Cats when I was a kid.........

Didn't we have a post at one time with the email addresses of the commissioners?

 

[Hunt Arkansas]

The Arkansas Game and Fish would be over stepping their boudaries. Hogs are not regulated by the G&F nor do they have any authority to ban dogs on private property. Surely its just a rumor.........

I did have a WO tell me they were thinking of regulating hog hunting. Maybe this has more to do that than anything? If they outlaw hog hunting on private property they had better get ready for a flood of depredation permits to control nuisance animals. If a hog, pig, piglet is causing damage then they are a nuisance.

 

[jesusjunky1963]

I sent a e-mail to AGFC and MDC I will let you know what I find out.

I heard something similar, but what I heard only applied to public property and also looking at getting more serious on the ones dumping the pigs on public property. This is good for the public property i think, hogs are killing our turkey populations.

as for Private property they dont have Authority.. YET

The rules can change anytime they see fit as we should all know..
Do you really think they care what anyone wants...

There is a hog season so why cant they.. They regulate that you cant hunt them on public land during the off hunting season dont they

So why cant they say no using dogs on Public property period on any animal or just hogs or just deer or ***** or whatever is happening on State land ?

Alot of these are released legally on Private Property and Escape .
