Dalmatians were bred hundreds of years ago for hunting, they still are. Also they were used 2 run along side firefighter carriages and nip the horses feet to get them to run faster. Dalmatians were also used to guard the horses at night because these horses were large , fast and strong good enough for thieves. They are still many firefighters today that use the dalmatian as a mascot for their brave work all those years ago.
