  1. Dalmation pups are hardly "all white". Like the rest of their body the spots have not developed, yet are clearly see on the pups, as are black ear markings. Why select Dalmations when many dogs are born with their colour(s) not yet developed.

  2. Dogs know when bad weather is on the way. My Papillion will find a warm, snug to curl up the day before the bad weather is due and won't go outside until the storm is well away.
