These photos I have posted show how far I have come. It is embarrassing in part because I know how much they were lacking especially in hind angulation. But you have to remember when you are searching for males or other lines that are compatible to your bi***es sometimes its better to keep with the type you want and keep the consistency that is already in your own line. I always kept bi***es from most litters to keep this side of the line going as we had strong dna there.
So in doing this I can track for example Gr Ch Dalcrest Rustic Fantasy directly back to my first bitch Ch Dalcrest Jedda. The bi***es were strong in their own way and kept the basic shape throughout. That's what I built my line on, with improving bone, fronts and finally hindquarters.

At 18, I had no idea how much going into the Judges training scheme would improve my knowledge of what more I had to do to improve my dogs so they were closer to the ideal. With no real mentor Mum and I both tried as hard as we could to stay true to the Dalmatian standard. With both of us starting into Judging we both learnt the information needed to improve. knowing how dogs are put together and how they should move definitely made me try to think more ahead and researched other lines and what they were producing. To not acknowledge other good dogs was to be closed off. When you start to keep thinking you are the only one breeding good dogs you can close yourself off to new opportunities and become blind to any faults they may creep in. Breeding is not for the faint hearted, and breeding Dalmatians can be one of the hardest breeds I've come across. From being born white, any markings on them then its classified as a patch so cannot be bred with. Then its eyes, any blue eyes and there again cannot be bred with. Even before you examine their physique, they have to be tested for hearing, so another puppy cannot be bred with, in fact is required to be euthanised upon the resulting being deaf. Then we finally look at spotting on what puppies are left and the heaviest are usually discarded as everyone loves a pretty spotted dalmatian even if it has a straight front, or unlevel topline, or whatever. The physique of puppy should always override the spotting if you are looking to breed,

My first male and is black, we always knew with having liver bi***es you had to have black dogs in the mix to keep good pigmentation and good coat colour.
