I am the founder a~td president of Big <br /> Island Gun Dogs, an organization dedicated to training upland bird hunting <br /> dogs of the pointing breeds. I have trained and handled dogs in numerous <br /> field trials and hunt tests, and have hunted game birds over these dogs for <br /> over 50 years. <br /> I am a past president of Ptg Hunters of Hawaii (2000-2002), and have held <br /> leadership positions in Big Island Bird Hunters, and the Hawaii Hunting <br /> Advisory Council. I chaired the state-wide Hawaii Hunting Forum in 2002. I <br /> was appointed to the Pu'u Wa'awa'a Ahupa'a Advisory Council in that <br /> same year, and continue to represent hunting interests with that body. <br /> In 2001, I was invited by Mr. Flynn to meet with, and discuss animal control <br /> issues from a hunting perspective with personnel from the National Animal <br /> Control Association. I am in receipt of their subsequent report to the Hawaii <br /> County Council dated September, 2001. <br /> I recently reviewed Dratt 3 of Bi114, a Hawaii County Ordinance relating to <br /> animal control I have discussed the subject draft with our membership, and <br /> provide the following comments from our organization for your <br /> consideration: <br /> Li. 3 t <br /> Comm.
