Hint 1: Clue Explanation
▼I initially felt that a “mascot” Dalmatian should be named Spot, Spotty, Spotzy or a variation thereof, but SPARKY makes sense when you’re talking about fire safety dogs specifically. Dalmatians originally earned their firefighting stripes by working well with horses, but they survived the advent of the fire truck (which, back in the day, might have even been outfitted with a lookout box for the station’s Dalmatian). Speaking of spots and stripes, good animal trivia today, Mr. Ezersky! I didn’t know about EMUS and their striking baby feathers.
