Need info on Lacy dogs

[cowboytex]

I want to get a new dog that will go everywhere with me from the deer lease to ridin into town. I want one that can be still and quiet when needed (like in a blind) go fishin with me ect. From what I understand they were bread for tracking. Can they be quiet or do the bay and bark alot? It will be an inside dog when were home not doin anything. Do they shed? Good with other dogs? (I have an english mastiff) good with kids? any and all info is appreciated!

Also if anyone has some pups I may be interested, preferably female but will consider male. Thanks!

Only people I know of with pups right now is the Crains and Rachel Connelly.

I know Rachel had a female, not sure about the Crains

Shoot me an email at nationallacydog@gmail.com and I'll get the info to you.

There is a lot of info at national lacy dog association to determine if a lacy is the right dog for you.

I'm not an expert at Lacy Dogs - but I've had one for nearly 2 years now and I can tell you this .... they don't like to sit around and not do anything. They are working dogs and need work. If not working they will find work which may include: Digging up the back-yard, eating every plant in site, eating cedar fencing and even eating an air conditioning unit.

I run her twice a day on my bike. Meaning, I'm on my bicycle and let her pull me around the block at a full run.

I've been told they don't mature out of puppy-hood for 2 years. Seems about right. She's settling down a little.

If I'm in the states Bagley is with me 24 hours a day.

Bagley at work right now

Study the traits of the specific bloodlines you are considering.

Sime will do everything your looking for and others won't come close.

Come to the LSBA Expo on June 23rd. The NLDA will be there promoting blood tracking. We'll have a booth and some lacys you can meet.

Lacy dogs are a wonderful breed but they aren't for everyone. They require a firm hand and they are constantly testing their limits. Like other working breeds, they are high energy dogs and need an outlet.
If you’re a rancher or hunting guide, you will have no problem with that... but a lot of people want a tracking dog just to have on hand in case they loose a deer and expect the dog to be a pet the rest of the time. Many times these dogs develop behavioral problems.

Ours track a lot from October to February and we take them to bay pens sometimes during the off season but we also jog every day. We are not "hard core" and our dogs spend a lot of time in the house. Fortunately lacys and cur breeds are territorial and they will focus on guarding the home place until given a further job to do.

Like Brent said, if you do decide a lacy is right for you, do your research and find a breeder with dogs that fit your needs and lifestyle.

Lacys are high energy dogs, but given the right exercise and direction, they can be quite calm in the house. Mine sleeps nearly constantly in the house, he's got a cowdog mentality - if you are just standing there, might as well sit. Since you are sitting, might as well lay down. Since you are laying down, might as well take a nap. But, go outside and go to work - he is non-stop.

I fancied that some day I would be able to take my boy to the deer blind with me, but being a baying breed, he is very vocal. In fact, he talks back to me all of the time, cusses me, and tells me how awesome it is that I'm home. He talks more than any other dog I've ever owned.

Great dogs and one of my favorite breeds. We've owned several throughout the years and used them for tracking wounded deer. As stated above though, they need attention and training b/c their energy level is generally very high. They will find ways to keep themselves busy (working) if you don't and it probably won't be something you appreciate.

Courtney and Rob are a wonderful resource for Lacy dog information!
They do test their owners....mine finally has her own Kong bed!
