Wonder with 50 odd dogs on the return trip from Southland if they stop so the dogs are able to empty out etc over a 9-10 trip.

Dont know.....the handler certainly should be outed for 10yrs....can john be to blame? He wasnt there..but if he allows this practice yes he should be held accountable..

Out him for 10years!? The Driver or as you've referred to him 'handler' (although seems he didnt do a lot of handling) is not even an LP! Doesn't that raise some questions/concerns in itself!?

The JCA fail to realize anyone that isn't licensed are not actually subject to their rules. That fine cannot be upheld

Seen that - what a complete debacle.

 12 hours doesnt sound right?

[Alison]

About 3 hours to boat,3 1/2 hours on ferry then 5-6 hours home

[Flabbergasted]

Overall trip 12 hours in duration by the sounds of it although still unacceptable not to toilet and water dogs along the way.

 

 

[Virtual.Stipe]

Why wasn't this also reported to the SPCA to be dealt with as a Brech of the Animal Welfare Act?

[Alison]

It has been.They only got the report last week.

That bloke Armstrong wants stringing up. No excuse for negligence like that. And if he lacked the experience or skills to look after racing dogs properly, McInerney made a huge error in employing him and the fines should have reflected that. They didn't....
