Meet the breeder

I'm Sara F., the breeder behind Zydeco Dalmatians located in Lafayette, LA. We are dedicated to always providing our buyers and our puppies with a positive experience, which includes remaining committed to responsible practices when it comes to breeding, training, and rehoming our puppies.

Q. & A. with Sara

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My daughter is a passionate animal lover. I have always loved the breed and my children have followed in my passion. So many people have dreamed of owning a dalmatian since they were kids and I love to see the joy on their faces when their dreams become a reality. We have made so many life long friends with our puppy owners.
  • What makes your program special?

    Most of our puppies are free from the genetic defect hyperuricosuria (low uric acid - LUA) which means they are free from the risk or urate bladder stone formation.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include white and liver brown and white and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.

    Sara was excellent! She answered all my questions and sent me plenty of pictures and videos. Everything was so perfect that I could hardly believe it. This was my first time using the app, and she was incredibly attentive, making sure I had all the supplies I needed for the first day and all the documentation for my next vet visit.
