Default First With A Parker

Just got my first 2 Parkers last spring - VH 12 and Trojan 20. Took out the VH and the two pound rescue dogs turned bird dogs flushed one and got.

You should see the looks I get from people in the field with these two dogs but they actually are quite good. Won't win field trials but flush and find birds they do including water retrieves.

Thanks Ron for posting. A Pedigree paper doesn't mean much by itself; it's what happens on the ground that counts. I'm reminded of the coon hunters' mantra ..... "when the tailgate drops the bullsxxt walks". Many of my best hunts were with dogs with mixed lineage. It sounds like your Maggie and Mollie do well.

That's just great Ron. Rescue dogs are the best. I firmly believe that they realize their good fortune being adopted by you.

Way to go Ron, great way to break in the new Parker. Your dogs look great. It's not the lineage but the heart in the dog that counts. Many more happy days afield with those two companions.
