Daily long walks either in a park or an open area (properly fenced) are good for these dogs as they can spend the large amount of energy that is present inside their body.

Answer: The Rampur Hound is a bit tricky breed when it comes to training it. If an experienced owner, who knows how to handle a moody pooch, is training these canines and the training exercises are interesting and entertaining in nature, then these dogs can be taught or trained fairly easily. But if the training sessions start to become a bit repetitive and monotonous for these canines, then they can very easily get distracted during the training exercises and it becomes extremely hard to properly train them. Hence, it is very important for their owners to hold the attention of these canines for a long period of time so as to make the whole training process a lot easier and undemanding in nature and this can be done by making the training exercises more fun and entertaining for the Rampur Hounds.
