Vanessa, you already made a video with a dalmatian 💀 why would you lie about something like that

[cookingforsingles]

I just wanted to say thank you. In one of your videos you pointed out that if a cat is panting, he is very very stressed. My 16 yo cat has been a bit ill lately and I had to give him medicine. One day he just freaked out and didn't want the medicine and I saw him panting so I stopped trying to give it to him. My vet had said that at his age if he gets stressed he could have a heart attack but they didn't tell me what to look for. Your video could have very well saved my kitty's life! Thank you!

Dalmatians are definitely not a first time owner dog, I do wish with proper education more people would be willing to try them. They're sweet pups if trained properly

I did some research and found that the reason dalmatians are firehouse mascots is firefighters used carriages instead of trucks in the old days, and the dogs would run alongside the horses to guard them. As you can probably guess horses are afraid of fires and the dogs act as kinda an emotional support for them too. I wonder why the dogs aren't afraid of fires like the horses though 🤔 Anyways, these working animals are amazing!

That is one beautiful dalmatian. I grew up with a dalmatian and I can attest to their high energy and willfulness. He never allowed my siblings and I to fight. Once the voices got to loud, he'd bark and snarl. We'd all stop arguing to turn and look at him. And promptly forget what we were talking about.

Dalmatian owner here! Love to see Hank getting groomed. Bathing can be a lot of work but thankfully, Dals repel dirt. They definitely shed A LOT though and require daily brushing to keep it to a minimum. Most importantly, there is a project in the Dalmatian breeding community to improve the urinary issues they can get. We have many breeders in Canada who are working on what is called LUA Dalmatians (Low Uric Acid) to lessen the likelihood of bladder stones. A testament to quality breeders improving the breed.

I'm a professional dog trainer in Manchester NH USA. I'm proud to say that I have had the privilege of training a deaf Dalmatian puppy. He was fantastic and is now a emotional support dog. ☺️

My mom found a scientist who had backbred the Dalmatian to eliminate some of the health issues. The dog, Bailey, is one of four test tube puppies in the first generation to be AKC certified. She is very smart but also very territorial. Dalmatians need a lot of training to get past that but, since they were bred to protect horses and carriages.

As a Dalmatian owner who has had them for over 25 years, it brought me so much joy to see one on your channel! They are and always will be my favorite breed! ❤️ Hank is SO handsome!!

[HannahP]

We had our dalmatian for 16 years. She was a wonderful addition to our family and is still very much missed. Nearly 5 years after her passing and we still find her hair around!

[bryantan]

I have to give Hank's owners credit for training him to be well behaved. Plus, Hank did very well for his 1st grooming session.

[acustomer]

We got a Dalmatian + something wooly at the shelter. She was incredibly smart, figured out how to open gates, Houdini out of a harness. VERY protective of the kids. I sure miss her.

[jesusbeloved]

My friend adopted a Dalmatian from a city rescue. For some reason, he really took to me. Taking him to the vet one day, he decided he needed to sit in the drivers seat. Of course, I was occupying it at the time. There was a police officer right beside us. Watching me valiantly trying to get Perry to move over, he put his window down and asked if the dog had a license. I quipped he didn’t need one as I was just teaching him the basics. We laughed our way right down the road! And yes, they are as gloriously beautiful in person as they are in videos!

[Valorian]

Unfortunately, one of the reasons why Dalmatians have so many health issues was due to the success of 101 Dalmatians. When the movie came out, everyone wanted a dalmatian, so to meet with demands, there was a ton of overbreeding without any control. There were health problems with the breed prior to the movies release but the mass demand after the movie made those issues much worse

[rizeagle]

We have a broken one, he literally wants to do nothing but nap on the couch all day and will get sassy if he gets woken up while he is napping. He is so laid back and chill 90% of the time and really only gets annoyed at the other dogs.

[brianmorg]

Got a free purebred years ago from a breeder that could not sell the litter. Picked the one that stayed on my lap when I picked her up, when the others jumped right down. She was the best, and was great with our baby that came a few years later. I was lucky to get the exception to how many behave. The bladder thing was true…we always put water in her food, like milk in cereal. She’d actually wait for the water before eating.

My grandpa had a Dalmatian mix, he was the most intelligent and distinguished gentledog. When my grandpa had a heart attack, he went to the neighbors house and started barking asking for help. We know Darky and my grandpa are know taking some good long walks in heaven.

[lovedev]

My grandparents had a female dalmatian and one time there was a litter of kittens that were abandoned and she produced milk to feed them and she NEVER had puppies. I loved her growing up she was so protective of us kids.

[blackraen]

My grandpa had a Dalmatian when I was a kid. Perfect to a stereotype, he was a firefighter and Diggy was the firehouse mascot. I remember having a hard time "liking" him because that dog was always so serious and never wanted to hang out with the kids. Now that I'm older and really appreciate these kinds of high energy/high focus working dogs, I really appreciate how great a companion they can be.

But it's also really sad to see how many of them end up being 'too much' for owners that assumed they were getting a black-and-white splotched couch Lab.

[TheSmileyTek]

The only dog to ever bite me. I was so surprised at how territorial that particular Dalmatian was.
