The decision by the RNLI to not accept money raised by a fox hunt was welcome news but it has forced into the spotlight the fact that fox hunting is still LEGAL in Ireland.
RT if you agree fox hunting should be banned!
If you didn't know, Boxing Day is the biggest day of the year for hunts across the UK.
They parade high streets and present a cuddly facade to the public that they love their hounds and they don't kill wildlife.
RT & expose what the hunts don't want the public to see.
Right this second foxes are being chased to exhaustion and ripped apart by hounds in the name of 'tradition'.
Boxing Day is the biggest day of the year for the fox hunting community even though it's illegal.
Please RT to raise awareness and follow us to help us end it for good.
Please retweet, CONVICTED | James Hamill, 37, from #Caerleon, #Newport, South #Wales AVOIDS JAIL – Hamill left his ailing Westie to suffer with multiple painful health conditions for nearly two years until she was too poorly to be saved.
Hamill, who works as a bus driver, was convicted of causing unnecessary suffering to the Westie, Bella, following a successful prosecution by Animal Welfare Investigations Project (AWIP).
The little dog, who was just six years old, had endured severe neglect over a period of around two years, resulting in extensive fur loss, dry eye, and ultimately, blindness.
Tragically her condition had been allowed to deteriorate to the point where euthanasia was the kindest option.
The case came to light when Bella, whom Hamill had owned since she was a puppy, was surrendered to pet sanctuary The Original Westies Rescued UK (WRUK).
In a statement to the court, one vet involved in Bella’s care said: “When I first saw Bella I was horrified at the state she was in. I rarely see a dog that is in such poor condition.
Sentencing | 180 hours of community service; £800 in costs and £95 victim surcharge. Banned from keeping animals for a woeful two years.

As long as there are rescues who need adopting, I’ll truly never understand why it’s even legal to breed, sell or buy dogs and cats. #AdoptDontShop
