Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Gateway Farm Dalmatians located in Acampo, CA. As breeders of high quality Dalmatians, health and temperament are our main priorities, as well as producing puppies that reflect as closely as possible the ideal Dalmatian as described in the standard. As such, our puppies' parents have been carefully selected, are health tested, have great dispositions, and beautiful conformation! Each Dalmatian puppy bred by us has been raised with the greatest of care and comes with a lifetime of advice. We usually raise only one or two litters per year to ensure the puppies receive plenty of attention and socialization. Our puppies are born in our home so they get lots of love and handling right from the start!
