When a Dalmatian puppy is born, it‰۪s not possible to tell whether it will get black or brown spots. They only appear after two weeks or so. It takes a year for them to develop completely.
Dalmatians come from Croatia and are large, slender, elegant dogs. Their incredible spots are as unique as human fingerprints. Dalmatians are primarily cuddly family dogs, but they can also be attentive guard dogs or tireless rescue dogs. They get on very well with other animals, especially horses. That‰۪s why they used to accompany fire engines in England and are still the mascots of the New York Fire Department. For this reason, they are often referred to as ‰ÛÏfirehouse dogs‰. All Schleich figures are hand-painted with detailed modelling. 3+ years.
