About the Breed
This elegant breed was originally developed in Yugoslavia
and brought to England during the 18th century where their
splendid physique made them valued as coach dogs. It was originally
intended that they should be guards for the mail coaches but,
before long, no smart or fashionable equipage was considered
complete without one or two of these dogs running either beside
the wheels or with their noses to the back axle. The arrival
of the internal combustion engine made their task redundant
and now these dogs are simply pleasant and sometimes sporting
companions.
These are very good house dogs and make dependable guardians.
They are unlikely to bark unless there is a stranger in the
vicinity. You must be willing to allow them a good run every
day, however, which may not always be easy in a town. Dalmatians
are energetic dogs by nature, interestingly, their puppies
are born pure white in colour and only develop their characteristic
spots during the first few weeks of life. The short coat itself
requires very little attention, even during a moult.
Check that any puppy that you are thinking of purchasing has
normal hearing, as some individuals can prove deaf. In a good
exhibition dog, the spots should be clearly defined and circular
in shape. Although black-spotted Dalmatians are most common,
there is also a variety with spots that are liver-brown in
colour. The coat itself needs the minimum of grooming to stay
in good condition, but, particularly during a moult, brushing
should be carried out in the garden to save loose hairs being
shed around the home.
Height 23-24 in (58.5-61 cm)
Weight 50-55 lb (25 kg)
Coat type/colour The sleek, glossy coat should be short and
fine; the ground colour pure white with round, well-defined
spots of black or liver colour. The body spots should be approximately
the size of half a crown and smaller on head, face, ears,
tail and legs.
