I agree. They're very pretty dogs. If I had a dalmation with NO spots I'd still love it because it's MY dog and I'm not getting it as a show dog.
My question is IF the price of a dog is supposed to reflect the amount of time, money in vetting, grooming, health testing, quality(i.e
standard) why are parti yorkies continously sold for a higher price than yorkshire terrier? Certainly it is not because it takes more time/money/testing to raise a parti...? Should a dalmation with no spots cost more than one that meets the standard with all the variables the same with both dogs (same health testing, same time and money into vetting)?
I don't think anyone on here is trying to turn it into YTCA talk as some stated. There are some members on here very interested in working hard to preserve the breed standard and keeping color faults out. Both sides are very passionate about what they believe or what is stated as standard.
Just some food for thought.
