Dalmatians are great dogs that are very loyal. The Fire department used them along time ago to act as a siren when the water pumpers where heading to a call. The Dalmatian us to go out in the street and bark and warn people of a fire. Since then the Dalmatian has been used or welcomed by many fire houses as the dog of choice, though rarely ever used on the job anymore.

Why do firestations use dalmatian dogs?

Dalmatians were originally bred as carriage dogs. They would run under or beside carriages and guard the horses/carriage from theives, vermin and other dogs. When the first "Fire Wagons" developed they were used to guard the wagons and keep people away from the firemen and wagon. Dalmatians were originally chosen for this job for their temperment and distinguishable coat.(Their coat stands out of the crowd) Even though "firedogs" aren't usually out on the front field, firemen use them as mascotts because of their colourful past.
