Dalmations make great pets for people who have very active lives.  If you are looking for a laid back companion, this is not the breed for you.  This spotty fellow wants to be put to work!  Dalmations are a hard working breed of dog.  Back in the day, they were used as carriage dogs, especially helping fire men during the horse-drawn carriage era.  This dog needs to be kept busy all the time!

So before picking this cute guy to be one of your family, be sure you're ready to keep up with him.  Dalmations love the outdoors and they love to exercise, so take him out for your morning run to kkep him out of trouble.
