I think he's a hellhound. Hellhounds are demons who take the form of a dog. Wikipedia has this further to say about them:    "In cultures that associate the afterlife with fire, hellhounds may have fire-based abilities and appearance. They are often assigned to guard the entrances to the world of the dead, such as graveyards and burial grounds, or undertake other duties related to the afterlife or the supernatural, such as hunting lost souls or guarding a supernatural treasure." We've seen Parrish interact with fire unscathedly, we've also seen him take corpeses to the Nemeton in some sort of ritual while in a trance. Also, hellhounds would continue the pattern of supernatural dogs: Werewolves, Kitsunes/Foxes, Werecoyotes, and now hellhounds. It just all fits and makes sense.
