I found Dalmatian savvy a very helpful resource to refer back to when I think of a question rather than trying to search on the Internet. The free E-mail support I find are excellent remainders and very helpful tips.

I purchased dalmation savvy to assist in the introduction of a new dog to our home. We have a twelve year old female dalmation who had been an ‘only dog’ for six years and were unsure how to introduce a puppy dalmation into this mix. Dalmation savvy helped ease this transition and get us off to the right start training our new puppy. Everything has gone very smoothly, and we are very grateful for the guidance dalmation savvy has provided.

It has been a long time since we have owned a dog and we have heard that this type of dog is different to most so we was dreading it to be honest, and the 1st couple weeks it was hard work but when I read dalmatian savvy it helped me alot, you gave me very helpful information and to be more patient with her, we still got a bit of training to go but I will always refer to Dalmatian savvy its been fantastic and the emails are a great help thank you very much.

April 22, 2013

I consider myself to be an experienced dog owner and our first Dalmatian who is now 12 was quite a challenge but nothing compared to the rescue Dalmatian we adopted 6 months ago- I really needed to refresh my training skills and learn a few new ones but I wanted guidance that takes into account the very unique personality of Dalmatians alongside the latest training methods – Dalmatian Savvy is what I was looking for.

It helped me so much as I new very little about a Dalmatian. He does love to play and the book helped me focus his play with training. He has certainly made us his pack. Thank you for the advice on treats, he certainly likes carrots. I admire his growth and intelligence, thank you for warning me about his stubbornness. He does have a mind of his own on occasion, but the tips on training have helped immensely.

I have found “Dalmatian Savvy” the ideal way to get to know your Dalmatian better. I would have been at a loss if I had not discovered “Dalmatian Savvy” Lucy and myself are getting on like a house on fire. I often look back on the different aspects. It makes a great reference book.

I was desperately searching for information on the breed on Google when I stumbled across the link – the rest is history. I though my puppy was ignoring me and had a hyperactivity problem. However after reading Dalmatian Savvy and applying the simple techniques I have a well mannered (most of the time) four month old puppy who is a delightful member of our family.

Having rehomed a 41/2 year old dalmation I had my work cut out for me! I have owned dogs before but not this breed. This book is focused and gave me the tools to create a wonderful bond with my dog and therefore give him a secure and happy home. The training helped establish the bond and the bond enhances the training.

This book is an excellent buy for the new dalmation owner. It is specific to the breed and does not feel that it is a general dog book that has the breed name substituted to make it ‘specific’ to your breed. Well worth the money.

Dalmatian Savvy was our bible for a few days before, during and after getting the puppy. Even though we already own a Dalmatian we did not have her from a pup, so we wanted to get every thing right to start with. The email service has also been great and the advice given was very useful.

April 22, 2013

My dog is a Dalmatian mix that was six months old when I rescued her. Not knowing anything about Dalmatians I went to the internet where I found your web site. The information about the Dalmatian breed helped me to see what to expect. She is a bit more headstrong than any other dog that has been a part of my family. I have used Dalmatian Savvy as a reference book rather than a book I would read from cover to cover. Whenever I have a question or concern I go to Savvy. It has been a tremendous help with behavior issues, potty training, and crate training to name a few. And just yesterday I was wondering if I was rewarding Lucy for staying or coming to me and today I got the email that answered that question. From now on I will walk back to her before rewarding.

As the proud mum of two headstrong, lively and superbly intelligent dalmatians, I feel one can never get too much information on the training and living with these dogs. Since I appreciate Victoria Stillwell’s style of training and has used it myself a lot with good results, it was easy to pick up valuable hints from Dalmatian Savvy! I especially like getting e-mails with tips! Keep up the good work and loving this incredibly smart, stubborn and lovable breed!

I was so apprehensive while waiting to collect my dalmatian puppy, especially when people would say “Do you know what you are in for, do you know how active they are?!!” that I nearly changed my mind. But after finding ‘Dalmatian Savvy’ on the internet and studying all the information and advice, I felt very well informed and brought my puppy home. He is just beautiful, with the most beautiful nature, and everyone is jealous! He is puppy naughty of course, but with all the help I have from “Dalmatian savvy” I am sure I can cope! He is only 10 weeks old, I have had him for 3 weeks only, but we are doing well thanks also to the ongoing email support as well.

I have owned 2 Dalmatians over the years and was ready for another. The puppy I purchased was due to arrive in a week, so I was looking up Dal info just for the sake of seeing what was out there. I did a Google search for the breed and then for training. I mostly was interested in training info because I decided to crate train the new pup – not a method I had used in the past. Found Dalmatian Savvy and didn’t look any further.

After I had a very unfortunate loss of a male young Dal due to bladder obstruction, I searched the Net for help, finding Dal Savvy. What a wonderful information resource it is! While I am an experienced animal (and people) educator, the practical advice of Dal Savvy was very welcome and reminded me about how important consistent firm and loving “training” is in educating man’s best friend. Major kudos to the originality of the writers of Dal Savvy. The advice is useful for any breed, but the focus on the Dal is superb, accurate, and clearly written.

I was getting very frustrated with my dalmatian because she dint seem to listen just wanted to run and do her own things, with the help and tips from the books I have managed to have a dog that although not perfect at least I can control and that I can let off the lease without fear I wont see her again for quite a few hours she now comes back on command and is quite happy to get her leash put back on, before this wasn’t happening and to let her have a good run which she needs was a nightmare.

We rescued one dalmatian and then had another from the time he was a puppy. Both dogs were great to have.

I was looking for some helpful hints on the internet for controlling my Dalmatian when I came upon Dalmatian Savvy. The information and knowledge provided was just what I was looking for but first thought that there was no way in the world that I would be able to train my dog as he was then 18 months old. However, I was amazed how accurate and useful the tips were when I started training Domino as it took no time at all for him to listen and learn new commands. It made me realise how clever and special this breed of dog is. Well done Dalmatian Savvy.

I actually have 2 Dalmatian puppies, brother and sister. They are quite different and I adore them both. I had problems socializing them, particularly the girl, Missy, as she is very nervous and barks at other dogs. The techniques in Dalmatian Savvy made a real difference but what solved the problem was the great advice I was given via the email advice desk. Training two puppies requires some diferent strategies I would never have known. Without your help I hate to think of the problems we would have had. You certainly know your Dalmatians!

This is our 2nd Dalmatian, she is totally different to our 1st one, who was more placid. Millie is a very strong willed dog and we were having a lot of trouble with her. Using Dalmatian Savvy we have not only changed her behavior but have an dog that listens to us and just wants to please. Her obedience training is going very well. She can stay, wait, sit, come. Her recall is nearly 100% 1st time now and she almost never jumps up. What a difference you have made to Millie and our joy of owning her. Thank you.
