What are the issues? Why isn't this information shared prior to it becoming an issue. They have email addresses of most hunters, they know how to find us at HW and they can do press releases.

Well hopefully they will say you can't walk pet dogs out there, only hunting dogs.

Yes, that would be the right thing to do.

Why would someone with a hunting dog be more entitled than someone without?

could make a leash law unless in the act of hunting with a valid hunting license in the pocket of the dog owner

What about training hunting dogs, or exercising? You can't get a bird dog in shape if you keep it on a leash.

 Would love to see that.

Maybe because hunters pay for it.

Here is the current leash law for WDFW lands:

WAC 232-13-180 
Pets.

(1) The department may prohibit or regulate pets, except for bona fide service animals for persons with disabilities, on department lands.
(2) It is unlawful for any person to allow pets to roam unattended on department lands.
(3)(a) It is unlawful to cause or allow a pet to roam unleashed on department-owned lands from April 1 through July 31, unless posted otherwise.
(b) It is unlawful to cause or allow a pet to roam unleashed on designated access sites or within five hundred feet of a designated campground on department lands.
