Those feet are very typical of a Dalmatian. Sighthounds have long, narrow feet, Dals have very short strong feet almost like hooves. She looks like a couple of Dal x Border Collies I knew a few years back, also I saw a litter of Patterdale x Dal a while back and some were white, some were black...

We are looking for a small cheap companion/pet puppy so I have joined a lot of local Facebook pets for sale groups. Now I know where all those dark brindle Staffies in rescues are coming from! And some of the adverts are almost unintelligible. Endless adverts for young dogs and cats where the...

Dalmatians are excellent guard dogs with zero fear factor with the public.

I've seen Dalmatian Patterdale cross puppies advertised in the last year.

Judging by the collars they are American dogs, so he could be part or all Treeing Walker Coonhound, they have that profile.

My cat had pancreatitis and they excluded anything related to the digestive system, I ended up just cancelling the insurance as she doesn't go out.

The sire looks near leopard to me? PATN2 has been dropped now as there is no evidence for it. PATN can be hidden in any breed, you wouldn't know it was there unless Lp came along to make it visible. Not sure if any of that helps!

I use UK Weather Forecast, they have a Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/ukweatherforecast?fref=ts and a website http://www.ukweatherforecast.co.uk/ , the Facebook and website pages are updated often and if the weather is bad one of the forecasters will stay up all night giving news and...

Once, in the 80's, I rode in Dexy's Midnight Runners style dungarees and espadrilles. It wasn't my horse though.

Our miserable, ignorant plodder looked to be on a thoroughbred.

Happened to us this afternoon, it's not like she couldn't lose concentration or anything, the horse was plodding at 0.5 miles an hour and she even glanced at us but didn't crack her miserable, mardy face. Isn't horse riding supposed to be fun?

The browner marking on the flank looks like a bloody mark but the others don't. Interesting horse, the genetics gurus on Horse Grooming Supplies would probably have more of an idea.

You can faintly see appy markings on his rump, that with the mottled sking, striped hooves and white sclera make me think he has spotty/appy genes, probably his other parent was a BSP. ETA I would say he is black not brown, appy genes often make black appear brownish.

When I lived at a riding stables there was a livery that was a pain. He had been reared by a woman and apparently that meant he had been spoiled and was badly behaved! He was a horrible horse, always in your face, unpredictable and difficult to 'do' anything with. His owner was scared of him and...

The whole set up seems totally arbitrary, I've heard of people being sanctioned for three months because they couldn't prove they were literally working 9 to 5 looking for work, because they were looking for work on a home computer not the slow Jobcentre ones, because they were looking for work...
