Our next Dal, “Zoe,” became our first conformation champion—and mother. Zoe, another liver Dal, came to us at thirteen months of age, from Valentine Kennels. Zoe produced two litters—each yielding seven lovely puppies. There have been many other puppies born here at Kingdom Dalmatians since that time, several who have become AKC champions. Others have earned performance titles and several are registered therapy dogs. We are proud of all of our “Kingdom Kidz”.

The dogs here at Kingdom Dalmatians are registered with Therapy Dogs International and bring joy to others on a regular basis.

While we are extremely proud of the show dogs and therapy dogs that we have produced, our primary goal is to breed healthy, well-socialized puppies.

Our love for Dalmatians began, in 1993, with “Domino,” the cure for our self-diagnosed, “Empty-Nest Syndrome.” That empty feeling was no match for the sorrow we felt when Domino succumbed, at just one and one half years of age, to the lethal effects of medication prescribed for a seizure disorder. With Domino, we learned a painful lesson about careful, selective breeding.

Our hunt for a second Dalmatian led us to a reputable, dedicated breeder, Ms. Barb Allison of “Rim Rock Dalmatians.” Barb introduced us to “Sherman,” a three year old champion who filled the void left by Domino. Shortly after Sherman joined our family, we boldly made the decision to search for a companion for Sherman and a show quality puppy for me, as we entered the competitive world of conformation. “Kacy,” a liver Dalmatian, became our first show dog. After Kacy took “Best of Winners” at our first show, we were hooked!
