To: Nicola Sturgeon, First Minister of Scotland

Legislate for complete ban on dogs in hunting.

Recent video footage has shown that certain hunts in Scotland cannot be trusted to abide by the law. Please close the loopholes these hunts are exploiting by legislating for an absolute ban on the use of dogs to flush out foxes for pest control. Also, to ensure that the hunt respects the law, increase penalties for any breach.

Why is this important?

It is morally obscene to hunt, terrorise and rip to pieces a living animal for sport. The hunts that are flouting the law need to learn to respect the law and after the SNP being lobbied by such a large percentage of the population on both sides of the border, such a ban would be in keeping with the will of the people

How it will be delivered
