About Dalmatian Dogs

Dalmatians are striking, athletic dogs instantly recognizable by their unique spotted coats. These energetic, outgoing dogs were originally coach dogs that ran alongside horse-drawn carriages, and they've retained their incredible stamina and love of running. Dalmatians are dignified, smart, and full of personality.

When you adopt a Dalmatian, you're gaining a loyal, active companion who loves to run and play. They're wonderful with older children and thrive in homes where they can get plenty of exercise. Their playful, clownish side makes them entertaining family members who keep life interesting.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

25°F to 50°F

Dec – Feb

Albuquerque winters are mild with light snow that melts quickly and plenty of sunshine. The bosque trails along the Rio Grande are pleasant for winter walks. Nighttime temperatures can drop below freezing, so bring a coat for your pet on early morning outings.

Spring

38°F to 72°F

Mar – May

Spring brings warming temperatures and blooming desert wildflowers. Wind and dust can be an issue in March and April, so keep walks to calmer periods. The Sandia foothills trails are excellent for hiking with your pet as conditions improve.

Summer

62°F to 92°F

Jun – Aug

Hot, dry summers demand shade and water on every outing. The high altitude means stronger UV exposure, so light-skinned pets may need sun protection. Monsoon thunderstorms arrive in July and August, bringing sudden downpours and flash flood risk in arroyos.

Fall

40°F to 75°F
