Why Should You Get A Dalmatian
Dalmatians make wonderful family
companions. This is a type of dog that will fit nicely to whatever your
way of life. His medium size is suitable for apartment living, while at
the same time a true sporting dog at heart, therefore a great addition
to your country or suburban home.
In addition, the Dalmatian is an
excellent guarddog who is very sensible and alert but not a hysterical
barker. This obviously makes him ideal for dog training. He is
therefore a dog whose bark is to be respected and
investigated! If your Dalmatian sounds a "danger alarm," you can be
sure that there is a good reason for it, such as the approach of a
stranger.
He is initially cautious even as a puppy of strangers and not
automatically
everyone's friend. Often referred to as courteous dogs, he greets
visitors to your home with quiet dignity but at the same time with
reserve.
Classifying Dalmatians as Non-Sporting Dogs is inaccurate. He is
actually an excellent bird dog, has strong scent hound tendencies, and
an efficient retriever. Being the one and only true coach dog, the
Dalmatian is a hardy dog who is capable of many miles in "road work"
and in early days were often used for herding duties.
In addition to
being a wonderful companion, a Dalmatian is an elegant dog with his
clean lines and spotted markings that gives him a smart and charming
appearance. If you and your family loves spending time doing things
with your dog, this is an excellent breed to have.
He is very
intelligent, a fast learner, and very anxious to please his owners. The
Dalmatian is fond of children and enjoys playing with them. With early
training and socialization, this breed gets along well with other
animals.
If you are interested in showing your dog, the Dalmatian is a
suitable choice of breed. He enjoys being in the dog show limelight and
is seldom difficult to teach show routine. His short coat is easy to
care for and requires low maintenance grooming.
There is one special concern to watch out for before you purchase a
Dalmatian puppy: this breed has a tendency towards deafness. This is a
concern to which reliable breeders are making every effort to correct
within their breeding programs, and something that one should be aware
of in selecting the new family member.
Therefore, it is especially
important that you purchase your Dalmatian from a reputable Dalmatian
breeder. When you shop for your dog, be alert for signs of deafness.
Test for keenness of hearing by talking to the puppy, snapping your
fingers, chirping at him from behind or off to the side to make sure
that you are being heard and reacted to properly. It is not difficult
to ascertain that the puppy's hearing is normal, but be alert and
watchful as you make your selection.
