one thing i will say is please do your research. its not so prevalent these days but back when the movie came out there was a lot of inbreeding which cause lots of problems with dalmations.
Make sure you get to see the paperwork for both the parents.
Have you owned a dalmation before? not trying to scare you away its just I would hate to see a good dalmation neglected because the new owner wasnt aware of the amount of attention these dogs require. Yes they can be hyper, but they are a ton of fun too. I Have owned 2 in my life and can't ask for a better dog IMO.
sorry dont know of any breeders as its been a long time since I got my last pup. Best of luck in your search

check out this breed- argentine mastiff, they're bigger than pitbulls and most other breeds but they have about half the eneergy and little or no fighting instinct...they have a bulky aggressive look and they are a rare breed
I might get one of these in the future
that is one ugly looking dog

those are also called argentinian dogos... i have a pitmix so im up on the bully breeds.
while true they are lower energy they are very very stubborn and extremely hard to train, i wouldnt reccomend them to a first bully owner
the OC shelter has a dalmation i believe... at least they did last week im sure but they are a kill shilter so who knows now...

Yeah I got both my dogs at OC shelter 1 full bred jindo and another mixed with something else, not sure what though. They told us they were both un adoptable because they were mean and not trainable. My dad knew a lot about the dogs though and kept on going in and playing with the dogs until the shelter saw that my dad knew what he was doing and they were just doing it wrong, its like well of course a dog is going to be mean to you if all you do is take it out of the cage just to poke it with needles and **** it off. So just be persistent if you really want the dog.
looks like my first pitbull that was stolen....
