Gotta keep things interesting! But they def ARE a handful!! :) If your little guy is a Dal, he won't 'realize' when he doesn't fit in your lap any more! lol!~ Mine doesn't seem to understand at almost 50lbs, she's a tad large for the lap of a slightly more than 100lb person. And she wouldn't be the first Spotty to pretend not to get it, lol!~ ;) No breed is for everyone ;) Dalmatians aren’t particularly stubborn as much as they are smart and creative, imo.

Dalmations are def. not for everyone. They are a handful and VERY subborn. But our little guy is such a sweetheart. He's going to be very upset when he can't curl up in our lap anymore to sleep.

Now maybe president will have time for the food issues. I interrupt this blog site for breaking news:

They have a new post dated 6-29 called Annual Meeting Presidents Remarks 6-29-07. If you have just eaten lunch or dinner, you might want to wait a bit to let things settle down before you view it. Needless to say their comments such as saying all of the contaminated wheat gluten was removed as of 3-9 and that they were the first to pull the wheat gluten out even before knowing that was the cause will make your tummies a tad bit queasy.....

On the upside, Dal popularity is WAY down!!!!!!!!!! Sadly, the mess that was made is STILL being cleaned up. From experience, they are NOT for everyone, but I can't imagine living with anything else. Well, maybe as long as I had Damnatians I could consider it . . . ;) Not sure if it was AKC or just the Beardie Club, but they did something similar with Shaggy Dog.
