Behavior
While they do not act cowardly, the default Dalmatian expression is one with worried eyes. They are a calm and easy-going breed that likes to pose for the camera.

Variations
Dalmatians only come out of the Adoption Center white with black spots and 6 eyes. They can have as few as 4 spots or as many as 96, but usually have around 48 of them.

Their tail may have a long dipstick marking, a short one, or a "ringed" marking where one of the middle ballz on the tail is blacked in.

Breeding
Their ears can mutate to only one of them black or neither one black. Higher-generation Dalmatian purebreds or mixes may also mutate to have fewer spots or no spots at all.

Their black ears and tail-tip markings are linked to their spots.

Dalmatians are the basis of the ever-popular Tamsin selective breed.
