The Bolognese, also known as the Bichon-Bolognese, originated for European aristocracy centuries ago. Careful preservation by a few loyal breeders kept total extinction from happening and a small base of breeding stock survived. Today the breed is making a comeback due to the careful efforts of Bolognese of Phoenix and a few dedicated breeders throughout the World.

The AKC "standard confirmation rules" for the Bolognese breed is much larger than the Bolognese found in historical paintings. The total number of Bolognese that exists in the United States today is too low to qualify for AKC total recognition. Much work remains to be done before the breed is numerous enough to qualify.

Perhaps more important, they are loving, loyal companions with high intelligence, high curiosity levels and treasure nothing more than listening to and interacting with their human companions. Gene-o, embodies the best of the Bolognese breed. He's devoted, affectionate, beautiful, and intelligent. If you're looking for a rare breed companion, or just a superb friend for life, this is the puppy for you!
