Popular Dalmatians

Dalmatians are best known for their role in Disney famous movie, 101 Dalmatians. The history of these sleek, athletic dogs can be traced back to hundreds of years ago, starting as coach dogs and eventually working in firehouses, hunting, and circuses.

It is not surprising that Dalmatians are among the most popular breeds worldwide, with their unique spots and regal posture. Although everyone in love with them, Dalmatians are not for everyone. These dogs are great companions to take to any activity— you may be the one to get tired first with their seemingly unending energy.

These dogs were made for long runs alongside carriages to ward off men in the way— plus, their stylish appearance enhances the aristocratic look of the passengers. Today, with their high energy, Dalmatians make perfect companions to skaters, joggers, and cyclists. They also thrive in flyball, agility, and other dog sports, so be ready to give them daily exercise. Otherwise, your dog may develop behavior problems.
