At VEHM we love all breeds but Dalmatians come with a lot of reputation. Let’s set the record straight with a few quick myths and facts about these spotted pups!

🚫 Myth: All Dalmatians are born with spots.
✅ Fact: Dalmatians are actually born pure white! Their spots begin to appear within a few weeks.

🚫 Myth: Dalmatians are aggressive.
✅ Fact: Like any breed, temperament depends on training and socialization. Dalmatians are loyal, energetic, and protective not inherently aggressive.

🚫 Myth: Dalmatians don't need much exercise.
✅ Fact: These pups were bred to run alongside horse drawn carriages they love to move and need regular physical and mental stimulation.

🚫 Myth: They’re always great with kids.
✅ Fact: Dalmatians can be wonderful family dogs, but their energy and sensitivity require respectful handling. Supervised introductions are key!

⚠️ Bonus Tip: Dalmatians are prone to certain health issues especially deafness and urinary concerns. Regular checkups and early screening help them live long, healthy lives.

At VEHM, we see cats of all colors but there’s something extra charming about our fiery-furred friends! Here are some fun facts about ginger cats that might surprise you.

🧡 They're (almost) all boys!
Around 80% of orange cats are male due to the genetics behind their coat color it’s linked to the X chromosome!

🧡 They’re not a breed just a color!
“Ginger” cats can be any breed domestic shorthair, longhair, even Maine C***s as long as they sport that sunny coat.

🧡 They’ve got bold personalities.
Many orange cats are known for being outgoing, social, and a little mischievous though every cat is unique, of course!
