Since 1964, we have been an organization of Dalmatian breeders, trainers, owners and Dalmatian enthusiasts from the Pittsburgh, PA area. Come join us!

The Greater Pittsburgh Dalmatian Club has offered various programs, movies, obedience demonstrations, speakers, experienced handlers, Vets, etc. in an attempt to keep our members and the public informed about our breed. We try to interest both pet owners and show people with our educational programs. We offered puppy classes for new owners and hold a fun match each year at a local Pittsburgh area park.

A big thank-you to everyone who joined us for our very first Dalmatian Fun Day—you helped make it truly special! We loved learning new tricks, trying a fun new game, and earning lots of tasty treats while showing off our skills. Judging by all the smiles, our humans had just as much fun as we did! We can’t wait to see what exciting adventures next year’s Fun Day will bring. Thank you Cindy Sumner for organizing everything!!

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!

I wanted to thank everyone who has made this beautiful fall show possible, especially our trophy donors! We have heard so many wonderful compliments from the venue, to the judges, to our grazing table for refreshments. It takes a village and we would not be able to do it without our exhibitors, donors, and club members! Also, a big shout out to the Autumn Barkfest Cluster---Beaver County and Trumbull Kennel Clubs.

Best wishes and safe travels home!
