Alyssa is darling and that picture with the Easter Bunny is priceless and will become more priceless to you as they years go by.
That’s a great pic. She looks confused but comfy at the same time!! very precious!
My most wanted list: carnelian mouse wizard, copper patina frog wizard, autumn leaf poads, pumpkin spice kitties
Awww! Cute! I bet she was comfy in the bunnie’s fur. I hope she wont cry when she sees future easter bunnies, santas, etc. I see that sometimes and I feel so bad for the babies/children when they get scared of them!

Black Spotted instead of Liver(Brown) Spotted. I believe that Livers used to be far more common, but the Black are far more popular. You can also get ones that can’t actually be registered as their actual colours, because they’re not recognized. Tri-colour, Brindle, and the dilute forms Lemon and Blue. Technically Dally’s are actually solid coloured dogs, and the white is the “Pattern”. And yes they do start life as a “White Rat”
But my Jubilee is actually relatively spotless, she could easily have done the job of Oddball in the second Live action Dalmation Movie, and they wouldn’t have had to do much editing out!!!:D(She’s also incredibly small, and puppyish in other unusual traits) Also the amount of white is genetically linked to one of their few genetic Health defects, Kidney stones, the More white the more stones, we so far,(Knock on Wood) have lucked out and at almost 12 years old she hasn’t had a single stone. 😀 And no their “True” deafness is not proven related to white percentage. I think but can’t remember completely(So may not be correctly) that Patched puppies, those who are usually born with a large obvious patch of colour that has not “Spot Definition” may actually have the higher incidences of “True Deafness”. (“True Deaf”=Actually truly hearing impaired vs “Dally Deaf”=Teenager Hearing=Selective hearing)
No Prob, Yeah there’s a lot, there’s even been a few “True” “Long Hair’s” but there had been an attempt to breed out the Genetic defects earlier this century, but that got deep sixed hardcore by F3, because, even in that short period of time, they actually ended up losing all the attributes of the Dalmatians, and also inherited all of the Setters problems so the tightly controlled Gene pool got pulled and Fixed!!! 😀 What’s really funny is that in my Complex there’s someone who owns 2 of these setters, and if we can pull it out of our back passages we’ll have our second by this summer. And every keeps thinking that the setters are the Dally and the Dally is the setter!!! 😆 They don’t even bother noticing Hair length, or other structural differences, they just see “White dog Black Spots” 😆
