History of the Dalmatian:
Dalmatians, a medium sized breed, range in size from 19-24” at the shoulder and weigh anywhere between 40-70lbs. They are white, with black, brown or even lemon (beige) spots, although at birth the fur tends to be all white, with spots appearing after 3-4 weeks AKC standards recognize only all black or all brown spots as ‘acceptable’, with tri colored (black/brown/white mix) and lemon undesirable in a show dog. Dalmatians are very active, social animals that require plenty of exercise. They have been used for many different ‘working’ purposes over the years, as watchdogs, for hunting/retrieving purposes and are also known as “coach dogs” because they used to run alongside carriages as companions to the horses. Dalmatians make great pets, and require plenty of indoor time as well as outdoor exercise. Keep in mind that Dalmatians are smart animals that tend to get bored easily, so its good to use obedience training with flexible techniques to get the best behavior and most fun for both owner and animal.

History of the German Shepherd:
The German shepherd or Alsatian is an incredibly intelligent breed and is an excellent working dog. Police work, guarding, military, search and rescue and K-9 duties are among the ‘jobs’ that these hard workers excel in. In addition, they make excellent guide dogs for the blind/disabled. Notwithstanding, the German shepherd is also an amazing family pet/companion, and they’re loyal loving animals. They’re large breed dogs with an average height 22-26 inches at the shoulder. Aside from the more recognized black/tan coloration, German shepherds come in several colors and can be short or longhaired. There are three distinct breed lines, the International working lines, the International show lines and the North American show lines, each with their distinct niche. In the hands of proper breeders, these dogs are loyal protectors and good family pets, although bad breeding has, in the past, landed the German shepherd on the list of “dangerous dogs” along with other breeds (Pit bulls, Rottweilers and Dobermans also fall into these categories and are the targets of breed specific legislation) With proper training, socialization and most importantly, breeding, the negative traits (specifically aggressive behavior) can be avoided.
