Dalmatinere i sort hvitt

En aldri så liten bildebombe, men ingen av Casper. Tenkte jeg skulle legge ut bilder jeg har funnet rundt omkring på nettet, av dalmatinere fra “gamle dager”, samt noen gamle malerier og tegninger. Har hopet seg opp på dataen (neida ikke prikker på hjernen), så lettere inspirert av Christian legger jeg dem ut her.

Dalmatinertispe, Champion Balette

Description: "Its body is generally white, marked with numerous small round black, or reddish-brown spots. The dalmatian is said to be used in his native country for the chase, to be easily broken, and stanch to his work. He has never been thus employed in England or America, but is chiefly distinguished by his fondness for horses, and as being the frequent attendant on the barriages of the wealthy." —Goodrich, 1885 Source: S. G. Goodrich, The Animal Kingdom Illustrated (New York: A. J. Johnson & Co., 1885)205

Virginia. General Rufus Ingalls coach dog

In 1792 the Englishman Thomas Bewick, a wood engraver and ornithologist, published the drawing above and a description of “the Dalmatian or Coach Dog.” (The International Kennel Club Federation – FCI – recognized Dalmatia as its region of origin citing Bewick’s work.)
