Chalet Dalmatians
Meet the breeder
I'm Elaine & Paris D., the breeder behind Chalet Dalmatians located in Economy, PA. We are breeders of LUA Dalmatians. We try to produce the happiest and healthiest companions that we can and we show our dogs in both conformation and performance events. All of our breeding dogs are fully health tested and titled with the American Kennel Club and are proven as good breeding stock through their achievements. We are both members or our local regional club, the Greater Pittsburgh Dalmatians Club and the parent club, The Dalmatian Club of America. Elaine is the recording secretary for the GPDC and Paris has served on in the past and is currently on the Board of Directors. We live about 25 miles northeast of Pittsburgh, PA just outside of Cranberry Township.
