Destination Dalmatian

Destination Dalmatian is a breeder of Dalmatian, Havanese, Maltese, Pomeranian, poodle, and Dachshund in Dillsburg, PA, in the Susquehanna Valley near Harrisburg. Alicia Longenecker has been developing family companions for over a decade and holds membership in the American Kennel Club. All breeding dogs undergo routine screening for hips, elbows, eyes, and cardiac function to maintain healthy bloodlines. Puppies are raised in a home environment where they receive daily handling, exposure to household sounds, and supervised outdoor play.

Litter sizes are kept small so each puppy benefits from focused care, early socialization sessions, and consistent veterinarian follow-up. Adult dogs enjoy secure fenced yards and indoor kennels designed for comfort and safety. Recent adopters often comment on the calm temperaments and affectionate bonds these dogs develop with children and seniors. Past puppies have gone on to serve as therapy companions and family pets, illustrating the versatility of these breeds.
