What is a "coach dog"?

A coach dog, also known as a carriage dog or a Dalmatian, is a breed of dog historically associated with horse-drawn carriages and fire engines. Dalmatians are known for their distinctive spotted coat and have been used as coach dogs for centuries, accompanying carriages and helping to clear the path for horses. They were also used as firehouse dogs, alerting the firefighters to the presence of fire and guarding the firehouse. Today, Dalmatians are primarily kept as companion animals, but they still retain their historical association with horse-drawn vehicles and firefighting. Dalmatians are known for their energetic and outgoing personality, and they require regular exercise, training, and socialization to thrive as pets.
