Meet the breeder

I'm Olga O., the breeder behind Lagotto Illinois located in Barrington, IL. We are dedicated to raising exceptional dogs with a strong emphasis on health, temperament, and quality care. Our dogs are thoughtfully bred to ensure they are healthy and well-rounded. Each puppy is raised in a loving environment where they receive constant attention, care and socialisation.

Q. & A. with Olga

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I first developed a passion for breeding dogs in my native country. I have bred thousands of healthy puppies throughout my entire life. My friend is a vet, and also breeds dogs. Over the years, she has helped me understand lots of things about breeding dogs, such as proper care and breed standards. I fell in love with Lagotti after seeing how smart, and low maintenance they are.
  • What makes your program special?

    All of my dogs are bred with proper care, and health. We made sure to educate ourselves before breeding Lagotti, and have years of experience with Sporting breeds. Our daughter specialises in grooming, and showing dogs in AKC. She works with a professional handler, who continues to educate her about proper training and breeding methods. We are home based breeders, who love to raise well rounded dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include white, off-white, orange, brown roan, and brown. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Olga was amazing! Very knowledgeable about the breed, kind, and clearly cares deeply for the puppies. Our baby adjusted right away once she came home

    We are very happy with our new family member, Cookie. Olga was fantastic throughout the whole process. The communication was excellent. Cookie is the perfect addition to our family, and our vet was extremely impressed with her health and her temperament. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Olga!

    Olga and Anastasia were very lovely to work with. They raise their puppies with care and are very knowledgeable. I was so happy to receive my puppy at 10 weeks already sleeping through the night without any night time potty breaks! They put the work in so I didn't have to. Ana has still been a great resource even after I picked up my puppy.
