Generally, dalmatians are sensitive and playful dogs. They are highly energetic, which is why those who keep them as pets are always advised never to leave them alone with small children. Although dalmatians are friendly to humans, they can be aggressive towards strangers.

The oddest trait of dalmatian puppies is that they are born white. At birth, they are completely white. That means the black spots on their white skin only appear some weeks after their birth. Most of them develop these black spots two weeks after their birth.

Although dalmatians are popular because of the sudden appearance of black spots on their skin, some dalmatian puppies also have brown spots on their skin. While their females are usually 22 inches tall, their males are usually 1 inch taller. Another thing to know about dalmatian dogs is that they are intelligent, which explains why they are easy to train.

There are a lot of people who are familiar with dalmatians. This is a type of dog breed that has spots all over its body. Their spots make them unique from all the other dogs who may not have them or may have patches instead. Dalmatians are known to be very special.

They are very smart, and they can be trained easily in order to coach other animals. A lot of Dalmatians are normally outgoing, and they are not aggressive. The only problem that may occur is that they are very energetic. They may not know their own strength, so there is a possibility that they will knock down other dogs and even humans by mistake.

There are many traits about dalmatians that make them different from other types of dog breeds. However, when it comes to their oddest trait, that trait is that they are born pure white. This could be a shock for many, because when you first think of dalmatians, you would think about their infamous black spots.

Yet, the fact is that when they are first born, they are born pure white. Then, as time goes on and they grow, the spots will begin to show on their body. By the time they reach their full maturity period, there will be spots all over their body

Dalmatian puppies are born white, without spots that begin to appear on these dogs when they are about two weeks old, and become more prominent as the young pup grows. No two dalmatian has the same number and pattern of spots, as each dog is unique in appearance and character.

While most dalmatians are white with black spots, others are white with liver or brown spots. According to the Dalmatian Club of America, up to 12 percent of dalmatians are deaf, and many dalmatians can hear only in one ear.

Dalmatians can be rather energetic and reliable, and they are associated with firehouses. The movie 101 Dalmatians sparked an interest in this particular kind of dog. Many dalmatians were adopted because of this Disney picture, and the film made the dog a popular breed.

Dalmatians are very special, multipurpose animals and they are best known for their impeccable coaching skills. They are also infamous for riding around in fire trucks, and their presence in the firehouse keeps the firehouses pest free. They also have a unique piebald pattern on them, and their spots are typically black; however, they can also be brown, lemon or blue.

The movie “One Hundred and One Dalmatians,” gave them a lot of attention. They also help horses and other animals when there is a fire. When the Dalmatian is first born, they are white all over, and as they begin to grow and mature, they develop their trademark signature spots. Dalmatians are spotted all over and even in the roof of their mouth. They are a very affectionate breed and demand a lot of attention and training.
