Meet the breeder

I'm Lola, the breeder behind Bell’s Poodles Of California located in Fresno, CA. Our puppies are raised with a thoughtfully designed puppy curriculum that supports early development. Beginning at three days old, we implement Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) and Early Scent Introduction (ESI). Each day, our puppies are introduced to new sounds, textures, and experiences to help build confidence and resilience. We place a strong focus on both health and temperament to ensure well-rounded, happy puppies.

Q. & A. with Lola

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I’ve loved animals my entire life—I grew up surrounded by birds, rabbits, ducks, dogs, and even a cat! My kids have inherited that same love for animals. In 2014, we welcomed a puppy into our family, and it was love at first sight. When our relatives began asking for puppies of their own, we realized the best and most trustworthy way for them to find a healthy companion was through us. That’s when our journey began. I’m committed to raising puppies that are healthy, well-socialized and ready to thrive in their forever homes.

  • What makes your program special?

    Our program is special because of the love and dedication we pour into caring for both our adult dogs and their puppies. We take great pride in raising healthy, well-socialized puppies with exceptional temperaments. The care and attention they receive from day one truly shine through—and our happy families can attest to that!

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    I am in love with my new adult fur baby we got from Bell's Poodles of California. He came fully house broken, potty trained, and well mannered. I could not ask for a better fur baby. I am happy to have found him and will forever be grateful to Lola. If your looking for a poodle; puppy or adult Bell's Poodles is the only breeder to go with.

    I would recommend Bell's Poodles of California. Lola, was caring and always willing to answer questions and send information about potty training etc. She weekly sent a picture of the puppies and once I picked my puppy up she texted several times to see how we were doing. She also answered any concerns I had as a new puppy owner. Thank you Lola!

    Lola was incredible to work with. She was so patient, answered all of my questions, and was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. She sent frequent updates, photos, and videos of my dog without me even having to ask. After picking him up, I could immediately tell how much care and effort she had put into raising him. He came to me already potty pad trained, desensitized to touch and everyday sounds, and extremely well adjusted. It’s obvious that she genuinely cares so much about her dogs and the families they go to. I also really appreciated that she continued to follow up after I brought him home to check in on his vet visits and see how he was doing. I did a ton of research before choosing a breeder, and I’m so glad I chose Lola. She’s an amazing woman who clearly takes great pride in raising healthy, well-behaved, and well-bred dogs.

    Hi Good Dog, It was really nice working with Lola from Bell's Poodles Of California. Lola answered my questions quickly, sent me good photos while I was anxiously waiting to pick our puppy. She supplied a good list of products to buy. She told us of the routine Bilbo was used to so we could stay on the same feeding and potty training timing. Now we have a fun healthy puppy. Thank you, Deb
