I'm Cheryl M., the breeder behind Che Bella Amore Lagotti located in Olympia, WA. We are huge animal lovers and have a special place in our hearts for our dogs. We want to provide top-quality beloved companions. Our focus is on breeding healthy and happy puppies that can bring just as much joy to their families as our dogs do for us. We are very hands-on with our puppies and give them plenty of unconditional love and attention! We use ENS and ESI.
Q. & A. with Cheryl
Why did you start breeding?
After we bought our first Lagotto I realized we could not just have one.
My grandchildren wanted a puppy but because of the price I decided to have one litter and the rest is history.
What makes your program special?
We do not race dogs for show we raise dogs to do what they are most suited for which is truffle hunting and service dogs.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Poodle puppies are toy size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Havapoo puppies are black and tan. Lagotto Romagnolo puppies are brown roan. Poodle puppies are red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Great. We have had a wonderful experience with her.
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
