Description

Please note: I am only exploring the possibility of rehoming at this stage. I’m just putting the feelers out there. I’ll try not to ramble! But: I bred this boy myself, and he’s been with me since the day he was born. He lives here with his mum and my two other dogs (four in total). Out of the whole pack, he’s usually everyone’s favourite - he’s dopey, affectionate, and has the same sweet, gentle nature as his mum. 🖤 About Him • Neutered male Dalmatian • Larger than average for the breed (please be aware he’s a big boy!) • Extremely loving, goofy, and people-friendly • Has lived with a cat before (she passed in Jan so been a little while) • Good with other dogs • Highly food-motivated therefore very easy to train further • Well trained overall • Great with children in nature, but due to his size and tendency to flop all of his weight on you during cuddles, very young children may not be ideal He is very well bred — not only KC but also an LUA Dalmatian, inheriting the low-uric-acid gene from his father. Because of this lineage, his spots are naturally lighter than the classic solid black giving him a unique appearance. 🐾 Behaviour Notes When he was an older pup, he was attacked by another dog. He didn’t seem to be affected by it until the years have progressed and he’s matured, I’ve since noticed some behaviour potentially linked to that experience. If we meet another dog on a walk and I don’t call him back quickly enough, he may charge toward the dog barking. Once he reaches them, he’s friendly - a quick sniff and he comes straight back. He listens very well and if I spot the dog in time, he reliably returns around 9 out of 10 times. The challenge for me is that my other two dogs are genuinely reactive in an unfriendly way. If he rushes ahead toward another dog, I can’t safely walk toward the situation because of my other dogs’ behaviour. I feel he’s picked up a bit of “pack mentality” from them, and managing all four on long countryside walks as a single person has become overwhelming. Nothing bad has ever happened, but it does cause me stress and makes me dread some walks. Both he and his mum wear muzzles outside purely because they are AWFUL scavengers who will eat absolutely anything - not for aggression - but unfortunately it doesn’t look great when *such* a big dog runs over while wearing one. He does the ‘Dalmatian smile’ when greeting you, very endearing. And he LOVES to do zoomies still. He’s strikingly handsome as you can also see. 🌊 His Current Lifestyle He genuinely has such a wonderful life here: • Lives with his mum and two other dogs • I work from home so he always has company • We live by the sea • Daily long hikes in the countryside • Regular long bike rides • Lots of enrichment and exercise Because of everything I juggle - four dogs, work, long walks - I simply don’t have enough hours to work on his behaviour in the way he deserves. 🏡 What I’m Looking For Please only get in touch if you truly feel you can offer him an equal or better home than the lifestyle he has now. He needs a home that is calm, structured, and ideally without multiple reactive dogs so he can continue being the sweet, loving boy he naturally is. His price reflects the quality of his breeding, his rare LUA lineage, and the level of care, training, and lifestyle he has been given. He can essentially waltz into anyone’s life and slot in so easily! This is to ensure he only goes to a committed, responsible home. This is not a decision I’m taking lightly, and I want the absolute best for him.
