Amelia H.

Breeder of Miniature Australian Shepherds

Meet the breeder

I'm Amelia H., the breeder behind Bonbelle located in Raleigh, NC. I strive to breed healthy dogs that align to the standard and make amazing show dogs as well as consistent pets. I use outside outlets to prove merit. Most importantly, our dogs are loved house pets. We don't have a kennel or dog room. Puppies are raised in a family setting and well-socialized.

Q. & A. with Amelia

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I got into breeding by way of showing. I started in juniors with a miniature schnauzer. I mentored under other handlers and breeders. I love the breed and the community. After schnauzers, I got into MAS through a friend who showed me how great the breed can be!
  • What makes your program special?

    I breed show dogs for health, temperament, and conformation. I prove this through breeding dogs with sound temperaments, CHIC health testing, & show/performance accomplishments. My dogs are kept at home as part of the family. They sleep in bed with us at night. They are loved as pets first, beautiful show dogs second. As a professional groomer, I know the importance of starting grooming early.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.

Getting a puppy from Amelia

Price

Puppy prices include a $250 non-refundable deposit and between $2,550 - $3,250 final payment, before taxes & fees.

“This price includes the veterinary expenses, docking/dew claws, a microchip, AKC registration (limited for all pet dogs), and breeder support. Prices vary by litter, but are the same within a litter. All of the puppies are the same price, which includes the deposit. The deposit is due when the puppies are born and refunded if there are no puppies that match with the owner preferences available.”

Contract & health guarantee

Amelia may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase.
