This lovely white dog has been very popular and highly appreciated since the 11^th century. It did companion to ladies from black tie crowd and played role a lap dog in aristocratic families of renaissance Italy, like de Medici, Gonsaga, etc. Their popularity still grew, the Bolognese were owned by famous people like Madame de Pompadour, Russian Czarina Katarina II. and/or Austrian Empress Maria Theresa. You can also find this lovely dog as the work of art of world famous painters like Tizian or Goya. Official breeding of the Bologneses dates since 1882 when the register of dogs with pedigree was founded in Italy. After World War II this breed was almost lost and thanks to Italian breeder Persichi was preserved. But still the number of individuals was very limited. The next improvement was realized at the end of 20^th century when the breed was widely spread again. Very important work was done by Italian breeder Bonano, breeding kennel Platino Iridio. Later on, Mrs. Kubenova, founder of the breed in Czech Republic, brought several breeding dogs from him and set a solid base for quality population of this breed in Czech Republic as well. We are glad that our dogs are their descendants.
