How it works

At this time, the American Bolognese Club does not have a separate non profit agency to properly rehome and rescue Bolognese but will will help you as much as possible to find a home for your Bolognese.


Do you need to find a new home for your Bolognese dog?

  • Fill out the second contact box at the bottom of the page.  We will put you in touch with individuals that have signed up to be on a waiting list for rehomed dogs.
  • You will contact the individuals and vet them.  You can see a list of questions to help you vet each person at the bottom of this page.


Did you find a Bolognese dog in a shelter?

  • The ABC will aid local rescue programs in finding homes and disseminating information on the breed. 
  • We will also offer any new owners a free year of ABC membership so they can learn about this special breed.
  • If you should find a Bolognese dog in a shelter, in a dire situation, or if you are a rescue club that believes you have rescued a Bolognese dog, please contact us immediately  at americanbologneseclub@gmail.com.


Example of how the ABC can help: 

  • In January 2017, the ABC was alerted that Second Chance Companions, located in SW Washington and the Portland Metro Area, recovered  fifteen Bolognese dogs from a dismantled puppy mill. 
  • The American Bolognese Club donated to SCC in order to help with their veterinary care, food, vaccinations, and other supplies.  SCC was in charge of placing these precious lives in forever homes.  The ABC wanted each new owner to understand the Bolognese dog breed and be able to keep up with their new homes by offering a free ABC membership.  


Other ways to find a Bolognese dog:

  • Our ABC breeder members retire their breeding dogs from time to time. Many times these dogs are older, at least 2- 6 years of age.  We suggest calling each Bolognese breeder on the Breeder Directory to get on their wait list.  If you are only interested in a Bolognese puppy then we suggest taking a look the Breeder Directory section of this website to talk with the breeders about purchasing a Bolognese puppy.  

Bolognese dog rescue

In 2017, the ABC supported a local shelter’s Bolognese rescue with advice, memberships and donation.
