Ruffcoat Dals
I think everyone who has played Petz has bred themselves at least one line of PB Dalmatians; I know I have! So while taking a break from some of my more intensive breeding projects I once again decided to delve into the world of Dalis - chasing my pipe dream of a double white eared, few spotted, Dipstick tailed pup. And while Dalmatians are endlessly variable due to their spots, after a time I felt like they needed a little something more to spice em up. At first it was simply a coat change; I really liked the idea of a rough or wire coated Dali, so I decided on crossing them with Poodles for that plushy looking coat. It was only later that I decided to also include Poodle tails as a trait, although that really shouldn't have been a surprise, as they're basically my favorite tail!
A twist on the ever popular Dalmatian, Ruffcoat Dals are short tailed, curly coated, and spotty! Ruffcoats are a Dali and Poodle cross: in the most simple of terms, a Dalmatian that has a Poodle tail and coat! Some Ruffs are bred to Trot; some are bred with Finickiness - which allows them to Poodle Pose alongside the more traditional Dali and Dane pose!

Shape and Size
Athletic and streamlined, Ruffcoats most obviously resemble their Dalmatian Heritage. As such they should have an all Dali body, save for a Poodle tail and Poodle textured Coat. They are to be no smaller/larger then 150 scale, and have Dalmatian extentions (14, 8)

Variations
All Ruffcoats have white based coats with no other markings save for Dalmatian spots. These spots may be any color except White; with Black and Liver being the most common. Tricolored and spotless, aka completely white, individuals are not accepted (colored ear/s count as spots).
