A good friendof mine has a bird dog. He was concerned about snares that might catch his dog. I showed him the cable cutters. He bought a set cost him a whopping total of $25.00 he carrys them on his hip. I'm sure Marty or any trapping store (Halford, trappergords, ata in westlock) can help you out with the cutters. Don't get the cheapest crap at any of the big box stores. I also instructed him when asking for bird hunting permission to ask the landowner if he has ever permitted any coyote trapping. It's not that hard to share the wildlife in this province. If you find illegally set snares remove them. Just a tip I wouldn't run your dog on any land that is owned by fellows in black hats. You may have issues there. Some common sense things to think about.
