TAIL
IN LENGTH REACHING APPROXIMATELY TO THE HOCKS. STRONG AT THE INSERTION GRADUALLY TAPERING TOWARDS THE END, IT SHOULD NOT BE INSERTED T00 LOW OR T00 HIGH, FREE FROM COARSENESS AND CARRIED WITH A SLIGHT UPWARD CURVE, NEVER CURLED. PREFERABLY SPOTTED.

It is a moderate tail set. The tail is an extension of the topline, flowing with the back line after taking into consideration the slightly arched loin. At rest the Dalmatian may carry the tail low, but on the move or when alert it is carried with a slight upward curve. A traditional sabre carriage.
