The Lacy was first recognized in 2001 by the Texas Senate. In Senate Resolution No. 436, the 77th Legislature honored the Lacy as “a true Texas breed”. In June 2005, Governor Rick Perry signed the legislation adopting the blue Lacy as “the official State Dog Breed of Texas”.

Lacy dogs are strong and fast, lightly built but proportional within the height-to-weight ratio. Height at the withers is between 18 and 21 inches. Dependent on height and working condition, weight should be approximately 25 to 45 pounds for females and 35 to 50 pounds for males, according to the National Lacy Dog Association. The standards listed in the Texas House Concurrent Resolution No. 108 are slightly different: height between 18 and 25 inches, weight between 30 and 50 pounds but it was not until 2005 that it was official.
