ABOUT US

The history of Belmara’s shelties began in 1985 when Jostein’s parents had the first litter ever registered under this prefix. It would take another 22 years before the second Belmara litter was born, but this time with him as the breeder. In the end of 2013 Maria joined the kennel, and Hanne joined in 2020.
Our aim is to breed sound and healthy shelties of excellent breed type and we hope to do so for many years to come.
