Our Loving Families of Miniature Dalmatians...created
by Sheri Didreckson
This page is being dedicated to some pretty special puppies. My husband Darrell and I where looking for a loving dog and stumbled across the website of Gene Connell who is the mastermind behind this breed of dogs.
We visited his farm in Sale City Georgia when we where on vacation in October 2003 and ended up with two puppies. Peaches (named after the state of Georgia her birth place along with our favorite type of fruit) and Puddles (who looks like a mud puddle hit him around the eye). Both of these dogs are mini Dalmatians. Peaches weighs 35 pounds while Puddles trails in at 24 pounds. We had the puppies shipped via an airplane ride and they arrived safe and sound all ready for a loving home. About 2 years ago, we decided to get a third puppy. We got a toy Dalmatian who now weights in at only 6.5 pounds. We named her Pebbles. She's a cute and loving little girl who will always be small and precious. She is the boss!!!
Hope you enjoy our pictures!!!

This is one of the funniest photo yet of Pebbles. When she was a puppy, she loved to jump into the dishwasher when we open it up.
