ʻO ka Dalmatian, me kona kapa ʻahuʻula, he mea kupanaha ia. Akā ʻaʻole ʻike ʻia kēia ʻano ʻīlio e kona ʻano hiʻohiʻona wale nō: ʻo Dalmatian, e like me ka hound, nani a naʻauao, he hoa maikaʻi loa i nā haʻuki a he hoaaloha maoli. He ʻano ʻīlio hopohopo a paʻakikī kēia o ka ʻīlio. Inā hoʻokō ʻoe i kāna mau koi, e lilo ka Dalmatian i hoa pāʻani a me ke aloha.
Nā kūpuna kahiko
ʻAʻole maopopo ke kumu maoli o ka Dalmatian. Hōʻike ʻia nā kiʻi kahiko o Babulona a me ʻAigupita i nā ʻīlio kikoʻī, nā ala hou aʻe e alakaʻi i ka ʻāina Dalmatian i Croatia hou. Ua laha mua ʻia nā ʻīlio kupaianaha i waho i nā pōʻai aliʻi a hoʻohana ʻia i kekahi manawa ma ke ʻano he ʻīlio hahai holoholona; akā naʻe, ʻaʻole kūpono ko lākou hulu ʻike ʻia e like me ka camouflage i ka hahai ʻana. Ua hoʻohana nui ʻia ka Dalmatian ma ke ʻano he ʻīlio hoahele: mālama nā holoholona i nā kaʻa ma ke ʻano he alakaʻi. ʻAʻohe mea kupanaha e holo mau ana nā Dalmatian i kahi lōʻihi. I ka makahiki 1880, ua hoʻokumu mua ʻia nā kānāwai hānai ma ʻEnelani.
ʻAno Dalmatian
He puʻupuʻu ikaika ka hoa ʻehā wāwae. Hoʻolilo kēia iā ia i ʻīlio hoa leʻaleʻa a maikaʻi hoʻi e like me ka lāʻau lapaʻau a me ka ʻīlio hoa. Ma muli o kona ʻano hoaloha, launa maikaʻi ʻo ia me nā kānaka, he aloha a i kekahi manawa aloha e like me ka pōpoki. Me kēlā pili e hiki mai ana ka ikehu. Hōʻike ʻia ke ʻano o ka Dalmatian i kona kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe o ka naʻauao: aʻo koke ʻo ia i nā hoʻopunipuni a makemake i nā ʻāpana pāʻani nui.
Hoʻomaʻamaʻa a mālama i ka Dalmatian
ʻO ka hoʻoulu ʻana i kahi Dalmatian e pono ai ke ahonui a me ke ʻano ikaika. ʻOiai ko lākou pilina kanaka, he kūʻokoʻa ikaika ko Dalmatian a makemake e kiʻi i kona ala. No laila, pono ke kūpaʻa, ʻaʻole pono e ala mai ka manaʻo ʻino i ka mana. Eia nō naʻe, paʻakikī loa ka poʻe Dalmatian a hiki ke hōʻeha i ka paʻakikī inā manaʻo lākou ua hana hewa ʻia lākou. ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻoikaika ʻana a me ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana ma mua o ka ʻāhewa ʻana a me ka hoʻoikaika ʻana. ʻO nā Dalmatians nā mea maʻamau a maʻalahi i nā loli i kā lākou hana i kēlā me kēia lā. No laila, pono e hoʻokomo mau ka ʻīlio i nā hana o kēlā me kēia lā o kāna ʻeke kanaka. Wahi a ko lākou hānau mua ʻana ma ke ʻano he ʻala ʻala, he mau hoa maikaʻi ʻo Dalmatian no ka poʻe haʻuki: holo ʻoliʻoli nā holoholona me nā joggers, nā mea holo, a me nā kaʻa, a makemake lākou i ka wikiwiki a me nā pāʻani hahai. No ke kaulike o kāu ʻīlio, pono iā ia ke ola i kona ikaika. Hāʻawi ʻia i kona nui, loaʻa i ka Dalmatian kekahi mau koi ākea. No laila, ʻo ka mālama ʻana iā lākou i loko o kahi keʻena liʻiliʻi me ka ʻole o ka neʻe ʻana a i ʻole i loko o kahi kennel ʻaʻole kūpono. Loaʻa i nā Dalmatians kahi manaʻo pale ikaika. Pono e launa pū ʻia nā ʻīlio ma o ka hui ʻana o nā holoholona ʻē aʻe i ʻole e ulu aʻe kēia i loko o ka hana kolohe i nā holoholona ʻē aʻe.
Malama Dalmatian
He mea maʻalahi loa ka mālama ʻana i ke kapa ʻo Dalmatian: ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hui ʻana i ka ʻīlio i kēlā me kēia lā me ka pulupulu. Ma muli o ka hoʻoheheʻe ʻana o nā holoholona i ka makahiki a puni, he mea nui ia e wehe mau i ka lauoho lauoho, no ka mea paʻakikī ke wehe ʻia ka lauoho mai nā lako a me nā lole. Loaʻa i nā Dalmatians kahi ʻai olakino, no laila e makaʻala i kā lākou ʻai calorie. ʻO ka haʻahaʻa o ka pigmentation o ka Dalmatian, ʻoi aku ka kiʻekiʻe o ke kuli hoʻoilina. Pono ʻoe e koho i kāu holoholona - a pili kēia i kēlā me kēia ʻano ʻīlio - mai kahi hānai kaulana.
