About Us
Les Écuries Bellisa is owned by Pierre Lépine, Thérèse Goulet and their daughter, Isabelle. The 80-acre farm includes a 13-stall barn and three buildings for horses kept outdoors. Boarders’ horses have access to a regulation dressage ring, a large fenced paddock, a 60-foot round pen and turn-out areas.
Our Philosophy
Ours is a very small breeding operation located on the outskirts of Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. Foals bred by Bellisa Sporthorses are registered with the ISR-Oldenburg Registry NA. This means that our foals are inspected and branded the year of their birth.
The Registry's breeding goal to produce modern sport horses competitive with horses from Europe complies with the highest international standards for modern sport horse breeding. The Registry is not a branch of a European breed organization but has adopted the successful breeding philosophy and politics of the German Oldenburg Sport Horse. Inspections are conducted by judges from Germany and North American-bred horses are judged by an independent sport horse breed organization that works on the basis of 200 years of European experience.
This provides us, the breeders, with feedback on the quality of our breeding program. Buyers, on the other hand, gain clear insight into the quality of the product offered to them.
