I have hunted with two in N FL that were some of the best dogs I have ever seen. Cold nose, good bottom and relayed like crazy. I owned a couple that did not make the cut for me. I have a pup coming from a friend of mine.   This is a papered catahoula but he could pass for a Parker LOL  |

That papered catahoula looks like it belongs to Matt Duke.

I've got five 7 month old pups chomping at the bit to do something...they are 1/2 parker and 1/2 kemmer...soon as deer season is over I will be working with them...I hope to get the best of both breeds in a few pups...

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...

I've hunted behind quite a few.
I own two 11 month old pups I raised and gave a few more out to good friends. Hopefully these will turn out like their daddy, which is cold nosed, tons of bottom, and brains.

  He is doing well Ben. Loves a hog, a little rougher then I like but I think a good hog will make him back up! I am taking him tomorrow to a real nice spot I hope to get him on a few. |

i have one that i think is around 10 months old, i plan on starting him in february. he is alot different than the other currs i been around. i had him in a kennel but he was eating my wooden post so i tied him thinking he would tame down a little but he has more energy than any dog i have ever seen he is just wired up and barks about 23hours a day i have put him in a pen a few times and bays pretty good. im ready to take him hunting and see what he might make

Glad to hear the pup is doing well for you leonriverboy. I just need to get the two I kept out in the field and see how they do. One of the two has done real well in a baypen, the other OK.

Just curious on everyone's opinion of them that has posted. I have noticed and heard alot have the same qualities (Skiddish, Hard to handle, Bark 24/7, Stubborn) Im not saying this is every Parker because the two good ones I saw handled nice and were not skiddish at all. Just curious on what everyone thinks?  ?? Butcher, is this Alfred from the Parker board? We have talked a couple times I believe. This is Matt from FL. |

The biggest problem I've run across is the road running.
I've got two pups that act nothing like a parker dog but are full blooded. They seem to want to please me but they aren't a year old so I might eat all these words. The dogs daddy though is the best Parker dog I've hunted behind, and I've hunted behind a fair number.

Haven't hunted with a full Parker yet, but have hunted with some half and some a little more than that. All of them hunted good. Tons of bottom for sure. Don't know how to figure out how much Parker my new one has, but I am pretty fired up about her. Not the best pic, but only one I have so far. Barbara  |

They're dogs. Some are decent, a few are Great, and then some ain't worth talking about. |

I have hunted Parker dogs for a long time. And Like BA said, like others you get some that are outstanding and some that are average, however, the thing that I have seen is most will make you some kind of hog dog, might not be the best but if you put the time in they will be a hog dog. Now with that said ,,, several of you guys on here have been breeding dogs for a long long time, and like Parker dogs, most of yours make some kind of hog dog to. And depending on the person and how they hunt will depend on what kind of dog that is.. The Parker dog I have right now is out of the Levi dog. He is 3/4 Levi and 1/4 red cur out of Mississippi. And I have a 3/4 parker (Levi/Rowdy) and 1/4 Cat. from Forest Parker in NC. he is also making a good dog. He was a little slower to start than my Crawfish dog, and My Crawfish dog is red and my sniper dog is the traditional blacka and brindle . I think a lot of dogs with the right DNA have been sent down the wrong path do to the owner not realy knowing how to train a dog . But this is just my Openion.

Hey FLCracker (Matt), yes sir this is Alfred... Yeah, my parkers like to bark but its primarily the male that barks. But a "anti-bark collar" and a Red Rider have gotten the barking down to where i can tolerate it (I have no tolerance for a barking dog). My dogs are a little skiddish, and have shown a stubborn streak & have a decent bottom. I'm not an experienced dogman like most of the fellas on here & havent hunted behind a whole lot of other dogs so its hard for me to compare them to other dogs. I'm happy with what Ive seen so far, the oldest dogs i have are not even 2 yet and have struck quite a few hogs.
