I am as new as new can be to owning hounds. I have recently purchased two walker pups. They are now 2 months old. I have read every training article and book that I could find on bobcat hound training. I think I know how to go about training the pups. My actual question is, does anyone have a bobcat enclosure or offer quality cat hound training? I live in Arkansas, but I'm not affraind to drive anywhere to have my hounds trained.
Like I mentioned earlier, I cannot seem to find a training facility, if anyone know of one please let me know.
thank yall

my training facility is the mountains roadin or walkin and usually runnin damn deer ha ha at that young i would be doin handling training and some hot dog drags or a little scent drags

About the only way to train a bobcat dog
is to run it with other older trained hounds.
This takes many, many hours in the woods.
It is very important the kind of pup u start out with.
It takes a special bred kind of hound for bobcat hunting.
Just any old hound usally don,t get it done.
Good luck on training, u are taking on an almost impossiable task
With out older trained dogs.
In your Arkansas no snow area, it takes a pack of dogs to catch bobcats on a regular basis.
Bobcats are the hardest to catch of any varmit on a regular basis with dogs.
I hope this sheds a little light on the subject for you.
There are no traing facilities for bobcat dogs that I know of.
You are better off buying some older trained dogs, of which very few good
ones are for sale & they will be at an elevated price that most people would not be comfortable paying.

Junior Hines in Motley, Mn. has a fenced in bobcat training pen, you can call info. for his phone number.
