A Dalmatian Dog from Dalmatia, Croatia

Dalmatia
Croatia
2016

- - - - - - -

The name Dalmatia is from the name of the Dalmatae tribe, which is connected with the Illyrian word delme meaning "sheep".  Its Latin form Dalmatia translates to its current English name.

Dalmatia is referenced in the New Testament at 2 Timothy 4:10 so its name has been translated in many of the world's languages.

2 Timothy 4:10:
for Demas, because he loved this world, has deserted me and has gone to Thessalonica. Crescens has gone to Galatia, and Titus to Dalmatia.

The Dalmatian dog's roots trace back to Croatia and its historical region of Dalmatia.

Punk Rock Dalmatian Dog

This Punk Rock Dalmatian dog postcard was postmarked in 2014.  It was used in a 'Chain Round Robin' type of swap and was sent to four countries. The countries it was sent to are: Russia, The United States, China and Singapore.  Each time it arrived at its destination, the address was covered up and then it was sent to the next country on the list.  

Here is a scan of the back of the postcard....

This lovely group of dogs is a 'Suzy's Zoo' postcard.

I love the English Mastiff on the top left! There is also an Old English Sheepdog, Dachshund, Dalmatian, and Retriever.  I'm not sure about the rest.
