Exactly why would you. So do you need a law for that.

Why would anyone be out there with their dog running 3 or 4 hundred yards away?

What would stop that from happening now? If a hiker or bird watcher or boy scout is out with his dog, what keeps it under control now??
What is stopping it now? Its illegal to be acompanied by a dog while hunting big game would be the big one I would think!!!!

We arent talking about Joe blow out walking a dog as we have no control over that. And if your hunting were your seing people walking dogs lots then thats just something you must deal with. Most guys hunting dont run into that issue.
We are talking about trying to get a law changed for us as hunters and in order to do that there will have to be restrictions whether you feel there should be or not. We are just making suggestions as to what may make it work.
If you want to tackle the issues concerning dogs being walked by a hiker or bird watcher you go right ahead but im not gunna get involved. People think if a guy takes a dog hunting it will be to aid in getting an animal. That is why we would need rules so as to help assist in getting people past this notion and hopfully stop people from ruining the oppertunity by using there dogs for such acts.
