I support the RISE! campaign to promote and defend our rural field sports and other similar outdoor pastimes in Ireland.
I oppose John Gormley’s proposals to include hunt kennels in his new legislation on dog breeding, to ban stag hunting and the imposition of further unnecessary restrictions in any new law on animal health and welfare.

We will be combining this on-line petition with the paper copy petition and sending details of the results to the Irish political system.

The current momentum provides the necessary leverage to secure formal meetings with several key representatives in the Dail. We are now finalizing the dossier that combines these digital signatures with our existing paper records to ensure the full scale of this opposition is presented at the legislative level.

LEAVE THE KENNELS ALONE. The dogs are well looked after and worked hard.
rural ireland is being pushed to the brink, enough with the red tape.
My husband and sons have been involved in the hunt for years. It is a vital part of rural life here. Gormley needs to focus on real problems instead.
Enough is enough. Keep the laws out of our fields.
Sick to death of these city politicians telling us how to live our lives in the country. They havent a clue.

Stag hunting is part of our heritage. Hands off our traditional sports!
