These dogs are valuable tools that are in complete control at all times. I'm sure F&W would ensure there were laws to deal with those that weren't. I suspect both resolutions will meet with a lot of opposition. It's too bad that there wasn't an opportunity to educate some people on the use of these types of dogs. I know it would change their minds. My buddy Paul from the Yukon routinely goes around with his dog Molly giving talks on the value of pack dogs. I'm sure if some Alberta hunters had the opportunity to hear him speak and see Molly in action that they'd change their minds. I don't hold out much hope for either resolution. It's one time I'd love to be wrong though.
