What kind of life is it for those dogs being in a garage??? I am a firm believer that a trained dog is a loved dog and a welcome addition to any community. It is apparent from the description you gave that these dogs have been left to their own devices for way to long. Perhaps you can give them a little training in their short stay with you. Dalmations are NOT unruly breeds unless they are not trained. This guy needs to realize HE is the problem.
