About bernedoodles
The large and lovable cross of a Bernese Mountain Dog and a Poodle, the Bernedoodle is what many would call the perfect canine companion. As a hybrid dog, Bernedoodle can be large or small and show a range of different colors and markings.
Though no Bernedoodle puppies are exactly alike, you can count on them to combine the best characteristics of their parent breeds in beautiful and unique ways. Like the Poodle, these hybrid pups are intelligent, athletic, and incredibly loyal. Like the Bernese Mountain Dog, Bernedoodles form remarkably strong bonds with their family and adore children. They generally get along great with other pets. In addition to a lower-shedding coat, the Bernedoodle is also easy to train and remarkably low-maintenance.
This is a smart breed that is always sociable, friendly, and well-behaved. They are affectionate, comical, and joyful. They are always energetic and eager to please and eagerly greet people in a happy, friendly manner.
bernedoodle Health
The fun-loving Berendoodle is a designer breed that combines the affectionate Bernese Mountain Dog with the astute Poodle. While the Bernedoodle is not a new hybrid on the scene their rise in popularity continues to grow. As with any designer they are often considered a healthier option when compared to their purebred counterparts and have an estimated life expectancy of 12-15 years. Health data is still being collected on them so it is important to note they can still be predisposed to some of the same health issues as their foundation breeds. Proper care and yearly vet exams are vital in helping your Bernedoodle live a long, happy, and healthy life. Basic health screenings to diagnose or even rule out potential health risks can be performed by your veterinarian.

The Bernese Mountain Dog and the Poodle are both substantial breeds with hefty exercise requirements. Like its parents, the Bernedoodle needs plenty of exercise to stay fit and occupy its active brain.

Take your Bernedoodle running, hiking, rollerblading - anything that gets you and your Bernedoodle up and moving.
Bernedoodles are obedient, friendly and eager to please. All they need to unlock their amazing potential is consistent training from a dedicated owner. Bernedoodles are remarkably kind and friendly but they still need frequent socialization to learn how to behave in public.
