Puppy Purchase Process
If you have decided that you would like to become a happy Bolognese owner, you need to take these steps to purchase a Bellissibolo puppy from our kennel.
In order to ensure a smooth, transparent and fair cooperation, all prospective owners will go through the purchase process detailed below.If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us!
Step 1 - Waiting List
If there are no puppies available at the moment, sign up for our waiting list.
Please note that you may have to wait up to 1-1.5 years for a Bellissibolo puppy.
As soon as our next litter is born and the exact number of puppies and gender ratio are known, we will contact you.
To apply for the waiting list, we are waiting for your letter of introduction with a photo of your family. We respond to emails within 1-2 days.
Step 2 - Puppies are born
Prospective owners on our waiting list will be notified first about the birth of new puppies.
After their bookings, the available Bellissibolo puppies will be announced on our website.
You can find all information and photos of our available puppies here:
We email prospective owners every week about the puppy's development and daily life from the time of booking until pick-up, and we also send lots of new pictures and videos of the puppy. This helps to form a bond from the very first moment and for prospective owners to get to know their new family member.
Step 3 - Reserving the puppy
In the case of a puppy 6 weeks or older, the reservation is based on the puppy's name.
The official reservation of your puppy is made with the payment of the deposit.
How much does a Bellissibolo puppy cost?
Due to the outstanding quality of our dogs, the medical screening tests and the strong professional background, our prices are higher than the prices you can read in various classified ads. Higher price = higher quality is a guarantee that the puppies from us are beautiful and healthy.
The price of a puppy is not determined by the pedigree itself, because it costs about 10 thousand forints. But in order for a puppy to have a pedigree - especially a Premium pedigree, the parents and their parents had to fulfill countless things.
Just like anything else you buy in life, if you look for good quality, with official papers and a guarantee, it has a higher price.
Step 4 - choosing a puppy
This wait is necessary because while the puppies are developing and are exploring the world - their personalities will also emerge. This makes it easy to choose which puppy's mentality fits the new family.
You can choose your future favorite from the available puppies. We upload new videos about the puppies every week to the Bellissibolo Bolognese Youtube channel. Based on the videos and photos, our new owners can usually decide who their favorite is. Of course, we will help you with the decision.
Should I choose a girl or a boy?
For some reason, people think that girl puppies are easier to keep because they are more adaptable and docile. This is not true, because on the one hand, there is no significant cognitive difference between male and female dogs, and on the other hand, let's not forget that bitches come into heat twice a year.
In fact, boys are kinder, cuddlier, and more accepting than girls. This is because evolutionarily, bitches had to grow up to the serious task of giving birth and raising children, while males spent their entire lives in the pack: getting food and mating during the mating season. Since they don't have the burden of caring for their offspring, they can remain more playful, kinder, cuddlier, and more mischievous throughout their lives.
Another thing to mention is marking. In fact, this problem usually occurs in only one case - when a male and a female dog live together in the family or near each other.
Male dogs that are kept as the only dogs do not usually mark - they have no reason to do so.
If marking occurs, neutering is usually a solution (it is recommended to have it done after 1 year of age). Neutering also offers a solution to the twice-yearly heat of female dogs.
So if you want a puppy, you can safely choose a boy - Bolognese boys are really fairy tales.
Step 5 - continuous contact until the puppy goes to his new family
After the reservation, we will send the owners about the puppy's development and daily life by email every week until the puppy is picked up, and we will also send new pictures and videos of the puppy. The puppy will also have Zoom Meetings with its prospective owner.
This helps to form a bond from the very first moment and the prospective owners to get to know their new family member.
Before the puppy is picked up, we will discuss the "puppy shopping list" - what exactly the Bellissibolo starter package contains, what we will give with the puppy, and what dog equipment the new owners should purchase before the puppy arrives.
We also send you the Bellissibolo Puppy Handbook - our book usually answers all questions and greatly helps future owners prepare for the arrival of their new family member.
Along with the puppy, we also give you the latest version of our 30-page Bellissibolo puppy handbook - which contains useful tips and advice for new owners during their first period and a well-equipped starter package.
Step 6 -Pick up your puppy in our house or we arrange shipping
It is always a joyous moment to see the happy faces of new owners when they first see their new puppy.
Puppies can be taken home at the age of 11-12 weeks - this depends on the puppy's development level and independence.
The new owners come to visit us, we sit in our living room next to the puppies' kennel and over coffee/tea we discuss all important questions and provide them lots of useful information which will help in the first days. These discussions make it easier to the puppy to fit perfectly into his new family.
New owners will meet the mother of the puppies but they cannot meet the father dog, that is because we usually use great Italian male dogs as fathers - who live with their families in Italy.

Usually the puppy is sleeping while they are travelling together. The personal escort travels with your puppy on the passangers area of the plane, in the aircraft cabin. He takes care of the puppy: gives water, food and pampering to him/her. Usually he sends pictures of the puppy to keep you and us updated.When they arrive to the destination airport, the personal escort will call you and you will meet each other at the airport - Arrival zone. The escort gives your puppy to you together with the starter pack and his/her documentation.The shipping company is reliable and has great experience in transportation, so as the personal escorts. You can get references with names and contact info of satisfied American, European owners,who got their new family members by this way.
