Can anyone give me a short history on the origin of this breed? I'm just curious. I've heard different things from different folks, I figured maybe one of y'all may know the accurate info and might share. Thanks!

I have always been told from a trapper that has had for as long as I have been a live that they were breed from working dog. they had bulldog coyote and whipit. I think they were breed as cow dog and to handle the heat down in south Texas. I no he had a lot of the lot text when lacy first came out ill see if he'll show it time me again so I can take so pics of it to show u.  This is my male  My female on the right |

Good luck answering that question ! I will email a friend the link to this. He has been working on this for a while.
The Lacy was originally from the hill country , not south Texas.

they were hill country bred cur type dogs that were bred to be versatile.
the style ranged from having "eye" and working silent like a border collie type dog, to bay, to straight catch.
the type of ranch people that used these dogs raised pasture/turn out hogs, sheep and hair goats, and english cross type cattle. many of them fur hunted and predator hunted by night. in my opinion, this is why the lacy breed has so many inconsistencies in working style. it's also why they are typically shorter range type dogs. when i was growing up, most of the lacy type dogs were yellow and black, in recent times, selection for the dilute gene within the registered stuff turned them all blue and red/orange. it's been 15 years since i've seen a true yellow colored lacy and longer since i've seen a true black one. there are still a few good ones around, but most of the good blood is dying out with the old timers that spent their lives with them. i always felt a lacy contributed the most through crossing, they knick real well with the east texas type dogs.
