I know they have Yote pens to get pups started but do they have any Deer Pens in Ontario?

Not that I am aware of.
And it is illegal to off-season train your dogs on wild deer.
Which makes training deer dogs a bit difficult.
Why did this get moved from hunting dogs to off topic?
My mistake, I'll put it back.
Allowing dogs to "chase" deer outside of deer season is illegal. It is considered hunting, whether you have a gun or not. I'm sure the definition is in the regs somewhere, something along the lines of "chasing, stalking, pursuing whether or not you have a means to harvest the animal are all considered hunting". I'm sure they have a nicer definition but you get the jist of it.Quote:

IIRC, the fine is about $500 though - they handed out a few of those to farm dog owners west of Ottawa a few years back.Quote:
