Dalmatians are born completely white, with their distinctive spots developing during their first few weeks of life.
Developed in Czechoslovakia during the 1940s by crossing Scottish and Sealyham Terriers, bred specifically for hunting in the rocky terrain of Bohemia to pursue small game.
Developed in Croatia's Dalmatia region during the 18th century as carriage dogs, running alongside horse-drawn carriages and serving as guard dogs at night for traveling nobles.
Requires professional grooming every 6-8 weeks. Needs regular exercise and mental stimulation. Watch for potential terrier-specific health issues and maintain dental care.
Weekly grooming needed for shedding control. Extensive exercise requirements must be met daily. Regular urinary health monitoring and hearing checks essential.
