Sounds like a really good dog Parker, have you been able to get one out of that blood that could match that dog?

my favorite dog had to be Earl (bmc) he was 9 yrs old when he got killed. he was a longrange pork producer...  Was that your dog, and is that you? That'd be pretty cool to be on the cover of that magazine! |

noah there is quite a few dogs out o f him that has been outstanding dogs ......far as good a find d ogs as he was i doubt it .... far as myself i don't hunt a 1/3 as much as i used too ....i was in my twentie s back then and i hunt nearly everyday .....and i hunted blackie alot .....and alot of the place i hunted there was just a hog here and there ...... u guess there can only be one best you ever owned .....and i'd say i'll not t op him ......and from a breeding standpoint haveing a dog at the top of your breeding program the kind that stood out amonst good dogs is the way to go for me ......then all you have to do is line breed trying to get as much of him as you can in your dogs ......

Great to see all the guys posting pics and short stories about their dogs. We all like our own dogs for different reasons, one is they seem to fit our different hunting styles.
Larry Parker where did you get your Blackie dog? I know he kind of started the Parker dogs for you, just curious if you bred him or got him somewhere? We have talked before on your board about him being a producer. I never got pups from my Dixie female, but I have seen good dogs that just never produced much. Blackie seemed to be very prepotent as he seemed to produce a high percentage of good dogs out of different females.
One of the best male dogs I ever saw in the woods was a dog named BJ. He hunted out good, had an excellent nose, could wind or trail, was a little rough but would bay a bad hog and catch with the catchdog. I mean he was a REAL good dog for years. The guy that owned him bred him to hog dogs, cow dogs, bird dogs, hounds, bulldogs, etc. I bet he was bred 50 times over about 8-9 years. Bred to some good dogs too as the guys with females wanted pups like that male, but none of the pups ever turned out anything close to the old dog. Most were culled.
I think this just shows how peculiar genetics and breeding can be........

Got any leads on the big catchy strain Forida curs?
Yea I got two big red females, catchy is not the word for them when they are together. I am getting ready to move them down the road, they do not hunt wide enough for me! I am looking for a female to go deep

Those are both good lookin dogs !!!!!! that dog on the left looks like a dog named muzzle that my two gyps are out of. hoppy kempfer owned this dog.. I was lucky enough to get a couple of pups out of him !! One of mine is almost 11 and the other is 5 !!! My 11 year old is one of the best dogs i have ever hunted with.. she is pretty rangy , no quit at all she will stay with one for a week if she has to .. in her younger day she thought she was a bulldog but now she does what she has to to keep the hog tight.. i have lost this dog many times ... I lost her once for over a week I new she was either dead from the hog or gator eat.... I went back to where i lost her (about a 2 mile walk on a WMA) every day till i found her .. When i found her by luck she was cut down and in bad shape could not walk I carried her all the way back to the truck and brought her home to doctor her up ... well she lived !! This dog is part of the family and is just as good a yard / house dog as she is hog dog.. i dont hunt her much but when she goes she still gives the same performance as always!!! here are a few pics from her younger years and now !! She is catahula / bmc Im not sure about the muzzle dogs (her daddy) background but her mama was catahula / black and tan partin The fella that owned these dogs is up there in age now but still keeps a few dogs around sad to say for health reasons he does not hunt anymore...  here she is ridin on the airboat she will hunt from anything tool box, airboat, buggy, fourwheeler, out in fron of the truck , on foot , hell i used to hunt a wma that was walk in only and got her cut down and she rode the handle bars of a bike the whole way back !!     here is both of us in our younger day i was 16 here and she was just over a year!!  we have been a team for a long time and we both have learned A LOT from eachother..... I have always been there for her and she has always been there for me.... man i hope its not for a long, long time but im gonna be down in the dumps for a while when she goes !!!!!! |
