I-Dalmatian iyinja ephakathi nendawo, enemisipha futhi izacile. Unokukhuthazela okuhle futhi uyasebenza ngokwemvelo. Abesilisa bangu-56 kuya ku-62 cm ubude futhi banesisindo esiphakathi kuka-28 no-35 kg kanti abesifazane bangu-54 kuya ku-60 cm ubude futhi banesisindo esingama-22 kuye kuma-28 kg (1). IFédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI) ibeka iDalmatia phakathi kwama-hounds futhi iyichaze njengenja enomzimba onxande futhi onamandla. Ijazi leDalmatia lifushane, liminyene, libushelelezi futhi liyacwebezela. Ijazi layo limhlophe, libonakala ngombala omnyama noma onsundu (isibindi).

Umngane omuhle wamahhashi kanye ne-trotter enhle kakhulu enokukhuthazela okukhulu, iDalmatian yasetshenziswa eNkathini Ephakathi ukuhambisana nabaqeqeshi nabaqeqeshi emabangeni amade ukuze kuvulwe indlela futhi kuvikelwe nabasebenzi. (2) Muva nje, ngekhulu le-XNUMXth nasekuqaleni kwe-XNUMXth, kungenxa yesizathu esifanayo nokuthi iDalmatian isetshenziswe ngabacimi bomlilo e-United States. Ngesikhathi sokungenelela, wakhombisa izinjini zomlilo ezidonswa ngamahhashi ngokukhonkotha kwakhe futhi kusihlwa, waqapha ikamu kanye namahhashi. Ngisho nanamuhla, usengumascot wezicishamlilo eziningi zaseMelika nezaseCanada.

Ngomlingiswa wayo othembekile futhi obonisa kakhulu, iDalmatia iyinja yomndeni ngokwenza kahle.

Unokukhuthazela okuhle lapho egijima futhi uthanda kakhulu ezemidlalo. Ngakho-ke kubalulekile ukuthi wazi ukuthi ubumnandi bakhe abuzukugculiseka ngokuphelele efulethini ledolobha. Ngokuphambene nalokho, udinga izikhala ezinkulu nokuvakasha okuningana kwansuku zonke ukuze anelise isidingo sakhe sokuzivocavoca umzimba.

Izifo zezinso nezomchamo

Njengabantu namanye ama-primates, ama-Dalmatians angahlushwa yi-hyperuricemia, okusho ukuthi izinga eliphakeme ngokungajwayelekile le-uric acid egazini. Le uric acid eyeqile kungaholela ekuhlaselweni yi-gout (ukuvuvukala nobuhlungu emajoyintini) futhi ikakhulukazi amatshe ezinso. (3)

Ngempela, iDalmatia, ngokungafani nezinye izinhlobo eziningi zezinja, ayilulazi ngokuphelele i-purine, ama-molecule akhona ngokwemvelo kuzo zonke izidalwa eziphilayo, kanye nasekudleni. Ngenkathi ezinye izinja zizokwehlisa la ma-molecule amakhulu abe yi-Allantoin, amancane nokulula ukuqeda, amaDalmatians anciphisa ama-purine abe yi-uric acid, okunzima ukuyiqeda emchameni. Ukuqongelela kwayo kungaholela ezinkingeni. Lesi sifo sivame kakhulu kwabesilisa. (3)

Ukuhlolwa komchamo kufanele kwenziwe ukuhlola igazi namakristalu emchameni, kanye nomchamo i-pH. Kuyadingeka futhi ukwenza ukuhlolwa kwamagciwane asemchameni ukuthola ukutheleleka okungenzeka kuhambisane nalokhu. Ekugcineni, i-x-ray noma i-ultrasound nayo iyadingeka ukuqinisekisa ukutholakala kwamatshe ezinso.

Ukuze uqede itshe ngaphandle kokuhlinzwa, kungenzeka ukushintsha i-pH yomchamo ngemithi noma ushintsho ekudleni. Ukuhlinzwa kukhonjiswa lapho kungenzeki ukuncibilika amatshe noma izinhlobo zamatshe amakhulu kakhulu ukuthi angaxoshwa nge-urethra futhi lapho zibhekene nokuvinjelwa komgudu womchamo.

Izifo ze-neurological

Ukulahlekelwa kokuzwa kwe-Congenital sensorineural kuvamile ezinjeni ezinamajazi amhlophe namehlo aluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, kepha ukusabalala kuphezulu kakhulu eDalmatia. Abangaphezu koyedwa kwabahlanu baseDalmatians (21.6%) banobuthulu obungahlangene (indlebe eyodwa) futhi cishe oyedwa kwabayishumi (8.1%) banezithulu zomhlaba womabili (zombili izindlebe). (4)

Ubuthulu obuzalwayo abuveli kusukela ekuzalweni, kodwa kuphela emva kwamasonto ambalwa empilo. Ngakho-ke akunakwenzeka ukwenza ukuxilongwa ngaphambi kokubeletha.

Ukuxilongwa kokungezwa kungenziwa ngokubheka ukusabela kwenja ekuvuseleleni umsindo. Umbala oluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka wamehlo nakho kungaba yinkomba. I-Dalmatian eyisithulu ezindlebeni zombili izobonisa isimilo se-atypical (ukulala okujulile, ukuphendula kuphela ezintweni ezithintekayo, ulaka kwezinye izinja). Ngokuphambene nalokho, inja enokungezwani okungahlangene izophila impilo ejwayelekile. Ngakho-ke kuyaqabukela kungenzeka ukuthi umnikazi noma ngisho nomfuyi athole ubumpumputhe ngokuhlolwa okuvamile. Ngakho-ke kuyalulekwa ukusebenzisa umkhondo wamakhono wokuzwa akhishwe (AEP). (4) Le ndlela ihlola ukusakazeka komsindo ezindlebeni zangaphandle neziphakathi nezakhiwo zemizwa endlebeni yangaphakathi, imizwa yokuzwa kanye ne-brainstem. (5)

Okwamanje alukho umuthi wokubuyisela ukuzwa ezinjeni.

I-Dalmatia ibonakala ngobuntu bayo obunobungane nobuhle. Ngakho-ke iyinja efanelekayo futhi izolungela imindeni enezingane uma ifundiswe kahle.

Kuyinja elula ukuyiqeqesha ngoba ayisolisi noma inovalo, kepha idinga ukuqina nokubamba isencane. Inja engafundile kahle isengozini yokuba nenkani futhi ibe nolaka olubi. Futhi khumbula ukumjwayela ukuxubha kusenesikhathi ngoba iDalmatian ilahlekelwa izinwele unomphela.

IDalmatia iyinja ephilayo njengoba ekuqaleni yayizalelwe ukuhamba namathimba amahhashi amabanga amade. Ngakho-ke ngokwemvelo uyakujabulela ukuzivocavoca umzimba futhi kuzodingeka usebenzise isikhathi sakho uhamba. Ukuntuleka kokuvivinya umzimba kubi empilweni yakho. Wayengakhuluphala noma athuthukise izinkinga zokuziphatha.

Ukulingiswa kwakhe kwezemidlalo akumenzi uDalmatia abe yinja enhle yokuhlala, futhi uma unengadi, lokho ngeke kukukhulule ekuhambeni nsuku zonke. Kodwa-ke, abagqugquzeleke kakhulu bazosebenzisa le phrofayili yomsubathi futhi bazokwazi ukuqeqesha iDalmatian yabo ngemincintiswano yezinja njengobukhali ne-canicross.
