About Mini Bernedoodles

Bernedoodles are a relatively new hybrid "designer-dog", created by combining a Bernese Mountain Dog with a Poodle.

Bernedoodles are tons of fun. They thrive in a family setting and have laid-back personalities. They love to be wherever you are and just want to be part of the family - no matter what you're doing.

They catch on quickly to potty training and make great inside dogs. They also love to play outdoors or just lay on the couch and watch TV. They just want to be your best friend.

Every Bernedoodle has unique looks. All of our puppies are generally tri-colored which makes for a strikingly beautiful dog.

With careful, conscientious breeding our puppies either have the look of the Bernese or of a phantom puppy and all have excellent temperaments.

We specialize in the Mini Bernedoodle, and breed both the F1 and the F1B generation. Our puppies are generally in the 30-45 pound range as adults.

Mini Bernedoodle Puppy

Bernese Mountain dogs are a large dog from the Swiss Alps. They have wonderful temperaments, and are loyal, affectionate, intelligent and faithful. Their Lifespan is only 6-8 years. However, when mixed with a Poodle, it can increase the lifespan by double. They are gentle giants and need lots of love and kindness. They are laid-back dogs. They are nurturing and interact well with children.

Poodles are very intelligent, faithful, trainable, instinctual, alert, active, dogs. They are fun, loving, and at times goofy acting. They are alert and curious dogs. When mixed with a Bernese Mountain Dog the resulting Bernedoodle makes a great pet!

F1 Bernedoodle:

The F1 Bernedoodle is a first generation hybrid. They have added health benefits associated to hybrid vigour. This is a phenomenon known in animal breeding. This refers to the fact that the first cross between two unrelated purebred lines makes the litter healthier and better then either parent line.

Coat Maintenance: Expect to groom your F1 Bernedoodle about 4-6 times per year, or every 2-3 months. Brushing required depends on how long you keep their coat. Dogs that are kept in a "puppy coat" cut require little to no brushing. Longer coats require frequent brushing to avoid matting.

Coat Description: Bernedoodle coats grows to a natural body length of 3-5 inches. Many choose to have the fur cut back once every few months to keep the fur shorter and easier to maintain. Coats are usually wavy in the F1 Generation.

Shedding: Most are very light- to non-shedding. Allergy friendliness is usually successful in families with mild allergies.

F1b Bernedoodle:

The F1b Bernedoodle, is a first generation dog bred back to a poodle to ensure non-shedding allergy-friendliness. For families with severe allergies. Although there is less vigour in this crossing then in the original hybrid, the first generation backcross still is close enough in the breeding tree to benefit from hybrid vigour. With each successive generation vigour is lost.

Coat maintance: Expect to groom your F1B Bernedoodle about 4-6 times per year, or every 2-3 months. Brushing required depends on how long you keep their coat. Dogs that are kept in a "puppy coat" cut require little to no brushing. Longer coats require frequent brushing to avoid matting.

Coat description: Coat continues to grow in length similar in appearance to an F1 Bernedoodle; coats can be wavy or curly.

Shedding: Very Light to non-shedding. Recommended for families with moderate to severe allergies.
