The decision to find a new home for your Dalmatian is a serious one that should be made only as a last resort.
Dogs have the intellectual and emotional capabilities of two-year old human children.
They become very attached to their human families just as any child would and they pine and cry if they are separated from their beloved humans. Dogs live to adore their humans and we are the centers of their worlds. Because of this strong attachment, you should do everything possible to keep your dog. Because of massive overbreeding of Dalmatians by backyard breeders, hundreds of Dalmatians are passing through Southern California's over 47 shelters every month. Therefore if your Dalmatian is relinquished to a shelter, chances are that it will not be adopted.
