Is it permissible to say the name of Allah over my trained dog and over the other dogs when eating from the hunt?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: If I send out the trained dog, and I say the name of Allah over it, and I say "In the name of Allah" over the other dogs,

The Shaykh:
No, saying the name of Allah over the dogs is not sufficient; it must be a specific single dog. Yes.

The questioner:
He says: So is this hunt permissible if I catch it together with my trained dog?

The Shaykh:
No, no, saying the name of Allah over people's dogs is not valid; it is only valid over your dog. As for people's dogs, you do not say the name of Allah over them. Yes.
