The truth about Dalmatians | Beautiful dog breed

I have never had the pleasure of working on a Dalmatian before and you're about to find out why this is Hank and he is nine months old it took a little bit of coaxing and a lot of good boys in order to get him comfortable in the shower good boy I'm not gonna wash your face okay good boy the dalmatian can weigh anywhere from 45 to 70 pounds and they have a life expectancy of 11 to 13 years nicknamed the coach dog the dalmatian was originally bred to guard horses and coaches running for hours alongside horse and carriages their job was to keep them safe from predators or Highwaymen okay that's it that's it that's all it was the chic it was a shake good boy okay these muscular dogs are energetic and built for stamina making them excellent jogging partners what many Runners don't know is that not all dog breeds are good jogging Partners many breeds such as the German Shepherd for example were not designed to run for long periods of time at the same pace forcing a dog breed to run with you that isn't designed to do so can actually be damaging to their hips and joints so if you're looking for a jogging partner be sure to do research on appropriate dog breeds meant for long distance running such as Huskies or Malamutes and also be aware that dogs should not start jogging with you until they are fully grown and developed which is usually around two years old wow you are shedding now let's get into why I don't see Dalmatians very often despite the fact that they don't really require professional grooming they are also a pretty rare breed for people to own although they are bred to be companion dogs they have high energy are extremely intelligent and are also very headstrong they can be difficult to train and require a patient and consistent Handler another interesting thing about Dalmatians is that about eight percent of them are born completely deaf and between 22 and 24 are born deaf in one ear they also have a very unique urinary system and are prone to bladder stones in order to prevent this they require a specific diet that is not very high in protein they must be given frequent bathroom breaks and they should always have plenty of water available to them for these reasons it's important to seek out ethical and responsible breeders perfectly clean oh you smell nice thank you all so much for watching I hope you enjoyed the heartwarming Hank who's a good boy did you give hugs thanks you want to go out that's what you want to do you want to go not very affectionate good boy good boy boy
