Not only am I a fan the the movie 101 Dalmatians but I am a bigger fan of the breed that inspired the movie.

I was able to catch up with Stacy Henderson Foster at a recent AKC Confirmation show. Her dog Fancy, won the Breed that day and it is no wonder why she is absolutely beautiful. In this video I sit down with Eleanor Green Winters, who produced Fancy and she tells me all about the Dalmatian breed.

The Dalmatian’s delightful, eye-catching spots of black or liver adorn one of the most distinctive coats in the animal kingdom. Beneath the spots is a graceful, elegantly proportioned trotting dog standing between 19 and 23 inches at the shoulder. Dals are muscular, built to go the distance; the powerful hindquarters provide the drive behind the smooth, effortless gait.

The Dal was originally bred to guard horses and coaches, and some of the old protective instinct remains. Reserved and dignified, Dals can be aloof with strangers and are dependable watchdogs. With their preferred humans, Dals are bright, loyal, and loving house dogs. They are strong, active athletes with great stamina—a wonderful partner for runners and hikers.

Pros of Dalmatians (from a Dalmatian owner):
- beautiful
- extremely affectionate and devoted to owners and family
- playful and athletic (great running partner)
- funny habits like sneezing when excited, smiling, being “talkative”, and big squeaky yawns
- groom themselves and don’t have a doggy odor
- good watchdogs and naturally distinguish friend from stranger

Cons:
- constantly shedding little white hairs that get stuck in clothing and everything else so you will always need a lint roller
- some are deaf or have temperament issues so selecting the right dog is critical
- need a lot of exercise
- prone to separation anxiety
- prone to certain health issues (bladder stones, epilepsy)
- trainable but will only listen to you if they want to

My neighbour had Dalmatian when i was a kid. Truly amazing dog. Always affectionate and playful. And indeed very very active.

We got a 5 year old dalmatian from a shelter. He's originally from spain and was surrendered there because the owner lost interest in him. He was kept in the garden for 4 years without much exercise. He was very insecure and didn't have a lot of experience (he copied most of our 11 year old sheperd mix behavior)
Dalmatians are such a sweet and human orientated breed. They love to cuddle and love getting affection so much. I definitely fell in love with the breed

I had a dalmatian for about 14 years. He was a perfect friend and was a great guard dog as well, he would only use his serious bark and stance at strangers. He was the sweetest angel and even let kids pet him when we took him to events. He was super smart too, learned quickly and agile, he loved to play. I'll never forget him, he took a piece of my heart when he left.

True respect for dealing w so many different types of people when you interview

Dalmatians are 100% a CROATIAN breed, no question about it. Breed created by a monk in the south Croatian region of Dalmatia. Breed standard in the FCI.

I had a Dalmatian, wonderful dog. Smart, affectionate, calm, more of a couch potato than I anticipated. Blue was a fun loving and loyal friend. I miss him terribly.

[geoffclarke]

Have had 3 Dalmatians and loved them all. Such beautiful dogs with a lovely nature.

As a Dalmatian lover this video makes me super happy!
I fell in love with the breed as a child with the aide of seeing the 101 Dalmatians movie. I received my first Dalmatian when I was about 6 and she was my best friend. I loved her every moment until she passed away and I still absolutely love the breed. I hope to own one again someday. 💗

I love the defeated “they shed” as someone who has a Dalmatian my god do I feel that XD

[christinas]

I love that these videos capture how passionate breeders are of their breed. And that it educates the importance of breeding healthy good temperment show quality dogs! Im so tired of people grouping good breeders with the bad ones and thinking they only want money! Breeding and showing js a hobby and something that does take alot of time and effort out of someone!
