Patch Mountain Dalmatians is the name of our kennel. We live in one of the most beautiful parts of Maine in the foothills of the White Mountains. We started in Dalmatians in 1983 and have owned and loved the breed since then. The focus of our breeding program has been to produce healthy, well tempered and sociable Dalmatians and we always strive to improve the quality of our beloved breed. All of our Dalmatians have their CHIC (Canine Health Information Center) numbers from the OFA which means they have undergone the health testing which includes BAER Neuro hearing testing, Thyroid, CERF eye exam, OFA Hip x-rays.
We participate actively in performance venues as well as in the conformation ring and have placed agility, obedience, rally obedience, tracking and road dog titles on our own Dalmatians. We co-bred the #1 Dalmatian in the country in 2010, Daisy, BISS GCH CH Blackthorn's Flower Power. Our breeding program has also produced top obedience winners, Dalmatians titled in performance in both Canada and the United States as well as therapy dogs. We have bred/co-bred 3 Champion Trackers, CH CT Patch MTN C Pepper N Paisley RE OA OAJ NF RD OAP OJP CPC PAC, her son Corey BISSGCH CH CT RDCH Blackthorn Coreopis of Patch MT BN RE VCD1 OA OAJ NF OAP OJP NFP RD CC CPC ROM and Maeve, CH CT Patch MT's About Time CD RE OA NAJ VCD1 Can CH Can CD the 4th, 6th and 7th Dalmatians to ever earn the coveted title of Champion Tracker.
