I'm the breeder behind Bella Terra Spinone located in Leo Cedarville, IN. I breed for health, beauty, and brains. I love all of my dogs and puppies and want them to thrive in their forever homes. I am committed to breeding high-quality Spinone Italianos. That being said, I strive for 100% satisfaction, whether it be in the show ring, for emotional support and therapy, or as the best family dog.
Q. & A. with Patti
Why did you start breeding?
I regularly participate in conformation shows and started breeding to continue and improve upon my prized Spinone Italiano line. I breed for health, temperament, conformation, and diversity. I have always loved dogs and was excited to establish my breeding program.
What makes your program special?
I strive to breed healthy, quality pups that can fit any lifestyle. I take pride in raising well-tempered and socialized puppies who can excel in work, show, or as beloved companions. I love what I do and truly want the very best for my puppies and their forever families.

Good level
Bella Terra Spinone reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Spinoni Italiani.
Hip Dysplasia
Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
Patellar Luxation
Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.
Thyroid (Autoimmune Thyroiditis, registered with OFA)
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
