Thanks Steely Dan. I should have put that extra info. into a Medlin dog subject. Have got to try and stay on subject. Some may get offended which I do not wish to do to anyone or any dog blood line. All blood lines including the ones I had have their weakness and strengths.

Winning over Mr. Pratt was no easy task for anyone. He had top of the line dogs and won more than he lost. I never saw him not bring a well conditioned dog to a dog show pull event. After the show he asked how Mr. Clean was bred. He just shook his head as there was about a 1/4 of the same breeding that his dogs came from in Mr. Clean's blood line top and bottom with heavy Medlin. Mr. Medlin knew were the good dogs resided in N.C. back then.

The Red Devil line is still around today. Have read on the other site there have been some good results with Red Devil-Red Boy and Sorrells- Red Boy crosses.

If you get into a family of dogs that you like a lot that has those old rumors etc. Most blood lines do here or there. Breed like the papers show. Getting good results no need to change the plan. If not try the rumor route sometimes where there is smoke they may be fire. LOL

The ends results looks good you may be on the right track or just made a new nick that starts a whole new line. Like the over night sensation of the Jocko- Tramp Red Boy- Medlin dogs. Put Tant/Chavis and others in the lime light. The owners of these dogs could care less about all the old dog rumors. Was what was at the end of the chain that really counted. The rest of the out come is how good of a dog manger and conditioner one turned out to be. I was not consistent as V.J. so he did most of that with me helping on the side lines.
