A Short History of the Popular Dog Breed - Dalmatians
First references to Dalmatians as a breed of dogs are found in history since mid 18th century. However, the breed was well known throughout the world long before the 18th century. Spotted dogs of the same size and type have been found in paintings, engravings, models and early writings. These dogs were commonly found in Africa, Asia and Europe. These dogs probably accompanied ancient gypsies, which can explain their vast spread and popularity. The term Dalmatians is derived from the place of origin of the dogs, a region known as Dalmatia. Dalmatia is located in the Adriatic region in Western Yugoslavia.
Although a favorite pet of man since ancient times, Dalmatians became truly famous after the elite class of Great Britain brought them home. The upper class of the British society used to tour Europe in the 18th century. They often brought back these spotted dogs. The breed attracted attention of the masses due to its striking looks. The English aristocracy used the Dalmatians to accompany their horse drawn carriages. They were placed below the rear axle of the coach. They also trotted below the pole separate the two horses. Many a times, they led the procession by trotting ahead the horse up front. Such impressive sights and feats drew the attention of the public and made the breed even more popular.
Another reason why Dalmatians are very popular is that they are firehouse dogs. Dalmatians were used in 18th century England as ratters. They were experts in locating and killing the rats that infested the stables and firehouses of London. The Dalmatians loved horses and fire engines and their role expanded to include racing along with or ahead of the fire engines when the alarm was sounded. The dogs became associated with fire engines and firemen. Even today, you can find many Dalmatians ride on fire trucks. They are still considered as mascots of firemen and are found in the firehouses in Great Britain, United States and other countries as well.
Dalmatians captured the hearts of the public by performing their duties with diligence and dedication during the war times. Dalmatians were preferred for sentinel duty during the wars. They also served as draft dogs and dogs for the shepherds.
Dalmatians are very commonly used in circus shows. Dalmatians are intelligent animals and have the aptitude for learning tricks. Their showy appearance also makes them very popular. They are used as assistants for the clowns. Needless to say, they are a hit with children.
Some tips for feeding your adult Dalmatian dog
Given below are some tips and guidelines related to the diet of adult Dalmatians. These tips and guidelines are the result of various researches conducted over the years.
One should not feed any organ meat such as liver, sweetbreads, brains, kidneys or any such organ in any form to the adult Dalmatian. Organ meat should not be given raw or cooked or as an ingredient in any food or snack.
One should not feed any game meat such as venison or elk meat in any form.

How do I stop my dog from digging?
My dog is a 8 year old shepard mix. She will not stop digging. I don't know what to do. She lives outside so constant supervision isn't possible. I've tried hitting her, yelling at her, putting her "duty" in the holes, putting rocks in the holes, and buying the repellent spray.
I think she likes the spray because after I sprayed it she dug only in those spots again and she digs right through the rocks.
I know dogs dig because they're hot but she has 2 doghouses, a pillow and a dog water bed made for cooling.
She gets exercise. I just brought her home from the dog park and less than an hour later she had 2 more holes dug in the yard.
I don't know what else to do. My parents are about to get rid of her if she doesn't stop.
If it was up to me she would live in the house but I live with my parents and they completely refuse to let the dog live in the house.
Presuming she's not completely obsessive about it (in which case I'd take her to the vet who can advise from there on in), it would be best to direct her onto something else. Digging is a natural behaviour so forcing her to stop without providing an alternative (more desirable) behaviour may cause her to find something else equally or more annoying (chewing furniture, for example).
Try giving her a Kong tightly stuffed with tasty treats, something to chew on, or, even better, play games with her, e.g. tug, fetch, retrieve.
