Title: quick question: legal or not legal to have a dog in your truck while hunting?
Post by: Spuddieselwwu on October 24, 2014, 05:54:55 PM: Settling a bet:
Have heard that its illegal, just wanted to verify - cant seem to find specific call out in the regs. Just having your dog in the truck with you.

Here's an example of what Bob33 was talking about.
