Mellman stock is a solid line of dogs. Can be real goofy if they change hands more than once or twice, but they’ve got nose and bottom for sure, hardly any grit unless crossed over something else.
He has her parents(she’s off a father x daughter cross) and they are pretty nice. His dogs and mine did real good for us when we was hunting together. Was more than happy when he offered one. Their kind of bottom will get you in trouble if you aren’t careful. Atleast in my area where big acreage is all but a thing of the past. They get a mile out of your permission around here they could be 8 places over.

I’ve seen some dogs with that blood pull some hogs straight outta their butts when the hunt was about over with. We hunted hard all day and couldn’t move anything, then all of a sudden she decided to cold trail off some tracks that were there that morning and bayed a good boar in his bed alil over a mile away and we stayed in hogs with the relaying. I’ve also seen the bottom you’re talking about, it’s something I require in my dogs, or at least use to, now I could care less to run one 4 plus hours, much less from daylight to dark.
