Don't know about thirty years ago, but there have been Cur dogs in The hill county since the late 1880's at least. Thats when George Lacy brought over some dogs to Marble Falls from east Texas and started his line of dogs the Blue Lacy. Not just George Lacy but other men also had allot of free range hogs back then just like in east Texas from then on into the 1920's and 30's. Ran them on the Acorns that fell from the oaks that are thick around that area, and used Cur dogs to gather and work them. All of this is documented of course, I'm getting this information from an article that was written in The Cattleman magazine in 1941.
