Here at Luna Bella Kennels, we raise quality lines of Rough Collies, Australian Shepherds, and English Shepherds. Luna Bella dogs are noted with our prefix, LNBL. We strive to improve in every generation, and take pride in the success of our dogs. Our dogs are shown in 50 shows a day, as well as feed the appropriate food for their statistcs. Our females are bred twice, once at 88 days and once at 100 days. Dogs are paired with a breeding mate when their are pups, and the name of the mate appears in the call name in all capital letters. To reserve a breeding, please see breeding and sales.

Our Dogs

Most of our dogs are currently locked in a side account because Eclipse has returned to school. A select few Rough Collies have remained in the kennel to be showed each day. If you are interested in a litter from a locked dog, message Eclipse.

The Rough Collies
Luna Bella Kennels was originally founded to breed and raise its own line of champion Rough Collies. Rough Collies are Eclipse's favorite breed. Our RC line was started with six store bought dogs, and most of our current dogs are descendents of one of the six. Luna Bella Kennels will sometimes buy pups from other show kennels to introduce new blood in our lines and to prevent inbreeding. In this light, Luna Bella Kennels would like to thank Dragonflame and Lance's Angel Kennel for their support in the continued improvement of our Rough Collie line.

Luna Bella collies carry a song title or lyric from a Jason Mraz song in their name, Eclipse's absolute favorite artist. The minimum breeding level for our RC line is as follows: 23 for inside breeding, 20 for outside, no exceptions. We are proud to say that our rough collie line retains its quality as well as all of the selection of coat colors unique to RCs.

The Australian Shepherds
Luna Bella Kennels' Australian Shepherd line was started with four rescue dogs, two rescued by Eclipse and two rescued by other players. Our Australian Shepherd line is arguably our most popular line, and pups from both 88th and 100th day litters frequently find homes in FPs top show kennels. Luna Bella Aussies carry a song title or lyric from a Bon Jovi song in their name.

The minimum breeding level for Australian Shepherds is 20 for inside breeding, 15 for outside, no exceptions. We adhere to this standard in order to remain competitive with the high quality of Australian Shepherds raised on FP.

For our Aussie line, we favor pups with red or chocolate, either solid or merle coloring, but color is NEVER the deciding factor in choosing a pup to breed or buy.

The English Shepherds
Our English Shepherds are our youngest line, and we are just starting to raise our second generation. We felt English Shepherds were the best addition to our kennel because they are so few and far between on FP. We feel we can make a significant contribution to the status of the breed within the next few generations.

The Luna Bella line of English Shepherds began with two store bought dogs and two dogs from a show kennel. Every English Shepherd at Luna Bella Kennels carries a lyric or a song title of a Billy Joel song in its name. The minimum breeding level for inside breeding and outside breeding is 10 for our line.

About Eclipse and Her Charries
Luna Bella Kennels is run by Eclipse, a college student on a mission to become a vet. She shares her real life with Daytona, a beautiful dark sable rough collie, Moose, a teeny winter white dwarf hamster, and Girls, a horse she doesn't own but loves the same. She shares her virtual life with three fursies, Brady, a white german shepherd mix, Araby (Click for REF), a buckskin stallion, and Chase (Click for REF), a ex-racer gelding. If you have any questions about Luna Bella Kennels, or just want to meet a new friend, private message Eclipse. She doesn't bite, usually. =)

Notes To Self

Now that we've read the guidelines, what exactly is for sale at Luna Bella Kennels? Well, for starters, both POL and SPOL of every 88th day litter will be available for reserve with prefix. SPOL of 100th day litters will in most cases, be available for reserve with prefix. Puppies, young adult, and adult dogs are rarely for sale, but if they are, they will be on private sale. In any case, when a Luna Bella dog or litter is availbe for reserve or auction, an ad will be placed on the DSB.

Sometimes Eclipse will take in an occasional stray. In this case, the dog will be spayed/neutered if it has a fair or poor, and in all cases, will be leveled to 5 and then available for private sale at a price of 5k.

Our male dogs are always availabe for outside breeding, and the fee for this is noted on their page. Eclipse might also accept a pup in exchange for a breeding. Luna Bella females are usually never available for a breeding.

If at any time you are interested in reserving POL/SPOL of a litter, or are looking to request a breeding, message Eclipse.
