hi there: if you really interested in keep dalmation, few thing you have to consider before you buy the dog. 1) do you have enough place for them for exercise? dal is a very hyper active dog, they are not suitable for keep in door, even in terrace house, you have to bring them out for walk everyday at least 30mins - 1 hrs, otherwise you have a trouble, they will be busy walking around at your carporch. 2) most of them are very friendly to human, but for other dog is difference story, is depend on the enviroment they grown up. my dal have problem to mix with other dog. they like to fight with other. 3) do you have kid at home? dal is so friendly to human, when puppy stage should be ok, but when adult, you have to careful them with your kids, they are very rash when playing with people, sometimes i also cant tahan them. But if you really like dal, of cause dal is also very cute fella, they are easy to trained, and was a very good guard dog as well. they so hard working. i put my dal at my farm, they like to help me to catch TUPAI. but some dal have a ear problem, they are easy to become deaf, you have to becareful of this. other than that, dal maintanance is not so hard, they are shot coats, and easy to maintain, but they lost fur a lot. To choose a good dal as your pets, you can go to search and type dalmation, there are a lot of dal infomation for how to train, how to choose and what is their character. but for what i know, choosing dal the importing as below: the standard dalmation is 19-24 inches tall, has a shot coat, and is well-muscled.His state of mind is also geared to long working days, for he craves activity and if denied, can become neurotic and destructive. the dal should be black and white or liver and white spots distributed evenly over its body. Patches of colour and spots in other colour are not permitted in the show ring.Spots should be round and range from dime-size to half dollar size. they can overlap. dals are born white and with perhaps a patch colour on the ears. Black spot dal must have a black nose and eyelids, liver spot must have liver nose and eyelids. eyes can be blue or brown. with black spotted dog having darker eyes than liver spotted dog. for more information: www.thedca.org, www.dalsavers.com. if you really interested to buy this dog, can email me, i can recommand you some breeder. the price is so cheap now. about RM400-800 with cert.
