The Dalmatian is a breed of dog with a white coat marked with dark-coloured spots. Originally bred as a hunting dog,[2] it was also used as a carriage dog in its early days. The origins of this breed can be traced back to Croatia and its historical region of Dalmatia.[3][4][5] It is thought that early ancestors of the breed were certain breeds of pointers and a spotted Great Dane.[6] Today, it is a popular pet and many enthusiasts enter Dalmatians into kennel club competitions.
