dalmatian
Black-and-white canine
A dalmatian is a breed of dog with a white coat covered in black or liver-colored spots.
Originally bred as carriage dogs, they became associated with firehouses in the era of horse-drawn fire engines.
The breed is known for its distinctive spotted pattern and high energy: The dalmatian ran alongside the carriage. (Capitalized Dalmatian refers to the region or its people.)
