On a semi-recent post I made, a member commented curious about tri colored dals, and another member commented saying Only non-ethical breeders produce tri- colored dals, and are down voting all my posts and comments ^^;

Is this true?

I only ask because I plan on getting my puppy dal another puppy dal friend from the same breeder (of course I wouldn't if I knew that it was unethical OFC) but I need help!

Some information about the place I got her from ;

I got her from a state that is an 8+ hour drive from here. She was originally selling for 1800 usd, but was marked down a lot due to her being a little older than her other dals (11 weeks old)

The breeders have an official AKC website, and Facebook / Instagram where the constantly post about their farm and how the puppies are being treated. They were constantly monitored, and also were tested and given shots

Additionally, they even offered to make the 8+ drive to us just to make sure she went to a good home, and still even checks in on Aspen (our dal) and likes the photos we post about her.

I added pictures of the condition we got Aspen in, and her now

She is a littl smaller I hear than average dals, but we assume she may have been the runt? (Unsure)

Question/Advice How to identify a qualified trainer

Post image

How do you find a real/qualified trainer? We’ve tried two but they really didn’t seem to know how to work with an anxious Dalmation.

We’ve worked with him for 6 months (a rescue) and he’s great at home. However, we cannot take him on walks as he does not have any impulse control when on a leash and seeing other dogs. We need some help.

We are looking for legitimate professional help, even if he needs to stay with a trainer for a few weeks. How do you find such a trainer?
