This is -the- original “Dalmatian” stock from which all other black-spotted dalmatians should be derived. This strain was started from roughly 10 individuals around 2013; this is a common trait in the wild in Briceville, Tennessee. The pattern expression varies from small specks to large chunks, and this expression is not heritable. If your “Dalmatian” do not breed true or produce mixed color spots, they have been compromised with genes from other lines.
