Dalmations

Do you want to know why dalmations have been associated with the fire service? Read this article posted over at Wayne's Firefighter blog. Here is a small excerpt:
Ever see a fire truck in a parade without a Dalmatian in the seat up front or in the lap of a smiling fireman riding in back? Ever visit a firehouse without having one of those black and white spotted dogs come wagging up to you?Why is that? Why do Dalmations and firehouses go together like smoke and fire? The answer is interesting, and one you'll likely recall every time you see the Dalmation/firehouse combo from now on.
Good stuff!
