Species group: Mixed Breeds
The basics:
RightPet does not advocate the intentional cross-breeding of purebred dogs. But the reality is that most dogs available for adoption at shelters and rescues are mixed breeds. We think it might be helpful to hear from owners of these mixes to see what traits can be found in these dogs who are desperately needing homes.
The pairing of a Dalmatian and an Australian Shepherd isn't a common one, but you may occasionally encounter this mix in a rescue.
Appearance / health:
It's impossible to predict the exact traits inherited by a mixed-breed dog, but at least some of these large animals do get the beautiful Dalmatian spotting.
Behavior / temperament:
It's impossible to predict the exact personality of a mixed-breed dog, but the cross of a Dalmatian and an Australian Shepherd is pretty much guaranteed to create a highly active dog who will enjoy spending a lot of time outdoors with you. Because of their size, invest the time it takes to train these sometimes-exuberant animals not to jump up on your visitors.
