http://piperbasenji.blogspot.com/2015/07/blue-lacy-dogs.html
A doggy blog written by a clever little chihuahua. Saturday, July 4, 2015. It's Independence Day, and that is when I like to write an entry about a made-in-America dog breed. This year it is the Blue Lacy, which comes from the Hill Country of Texas. Other names for this breed are Lacy Dog, Lacy Hog Dog, Blue Lacy Game Dog, Texas Blue Lacy Game Dog, and Texas State Dog. Whew! That's a lot of names! If you have ever read the book Old Yeller. In June 2005, a bill was signed by the governor of Texas that dec...

Monteria Kennels Lacy Dogs
http://www.lacyhogdog.com/LacyDogs.html
Though these dogs excelled at hunting and working on ranches for over a century, modernization has been tough on the Lacy. Too many breeders have started churning out puppies to be pets, looking at nothing besides color and papers, completely neglecting working ability. At Monteria Kennels, we are working to change that. Our goal is to preserve their original purpose and produce the best Lacy hog dogs possible. The National Lacy Dog Association.

http://www.lacyhogdog.com/Lucifer.html
Great sniffer, often able to work out difficult tracks. Combined with his nose, Lucifer has plenty of range to consistently find and finish tracks. Lucifer is mostly "hands off", expresses little grit and bays pretty loose but he will not hesitate to put enamel in ones ass if needs be. Once he is on a pig, he is not coming off until the pig is dead or hobbled. Though Lucifer shows plenty of finesse when needs be, he is not gritty at all. Really rough or running hogs may get the better of him.

http://www.lacyhogdog.com/Banjo.html
Pup / At barely a year old, Banjo has not been in the woods much but if things continue to progress at the pace they have been, he SHOULD prove to be a jam up dog. Banjo is double bred off of Bayed Blue Kennels Trapper, Trapper X Ellie over Trappers dame. It appears that all the best traits from Bayed Blue have been set in this dog. This dog is terribly driven. It is extremely difficult to keep him in an enclosure and he hunts hard. He never seems to run out or get tired.

No matter who I put Brutus on the ground with, I know exactly what to expect of him. Brutus grew up thinking he was a catch dog but has backed off with age. He is now a gritty bay dog who will stop a runner in its tracks. For as rough as Brutus can be, he seems to know when to back off of a pig, without applying too much pressure. But, he will put enamle in that same pig if it tries to move. Once he is on a pig, he is not coming off until the pig is dead or hobbled.

http://www.lacyhogdog.com/Lucy.html
PUP / At 1.5 years old and considering that I didn't get her until 3 months ago, she is showing immense promise. Lucy comes from some old hill country lines, a yard built on solid line breeding and hard culling. Her traits are set deep and firm. This dog is terribly driven. It is extremely difficult to keep her in an enclosure and she hunts hard. She never seems to run out or get tired. She hunts non stop. She has no problem with getting lost. She has only been in the woods a hand full of times.
