I have partnered with a friend to get 2 beagles for rabbit hunting. He picked the dogs from a breeder with a good reputation. We aren't worried about competition, just having decent dogs to hunt over with our boys. What is the best way to get them going? We have discussed building a starting pen but that seems like a lot of work for only two dogs. I am wondering if it would be cheaper and easier for send them to a trainer. Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks
Josh
Eta: dogs are about 6 months old and we are in mid west Ohio.
