Not every mutt farm dog can be used to run deer effectively. In Ontario there are a lot of areas in the south that have seasons where dogs can be used. Still lots of deer around. Some areas were giving 5 additional doe tags to help manage numbers. It wasnt until they had a crazy bad winter with lots of snow that the deer population returned to normal ( go figure) i shot my first 3 deer there in one week.
I would have no problem with people using dogs around here to help pack supplies and find lost game. I doubt that there would be a massive influx of people getting hounds or putting in the time to properly train a dog to track a wounded or lost animal
