This engraving with the dogs being "decidedly male" is usually attributed to Frederick Anschutz, who was chief engraver for Parker Bros. between the years 1911 - 1932. While it is only one man's opinion and is not meant to reflect on anyone's Parker (for there are other wonderful attributes of Parkers of the period during which Anschutz engraved for Parker Bros.) I find Anschutz's dogs and birds to be about the least artistic of all the examples we see. I find the work of Wm. H. Gough (chief engraver 1899 - 1911 {serial number range approximately somewhere after my DH 90739 through about 155500}) to exibit the most artistically executed engraving of dogs and birds of the pre-Remington era Parkers.
