First let’s dive into the Bernese Mountain Dog. They are stunning and attract attention everywhere they go. The Bernese were originally bred as an all-purpose farm dog. They were used to herd cattle, protect the farm, and pull milk carts. This is hard to believe as over the years, they have evolved into a happy go lucky breed that would rather lay around soaking up all the love they can get from their humans. They thrive on connection and if allowed, will be your 100 lb lap dog! We choose our parents carefully so that we produce highly human focused and motivated puppies. The Bernese tend to make this a breeze and are the best family dogs. Our love for this breed can’t be put into words. We call them gentle giants.
The Poodle! Poodles are highly intelligent. They were originally bred for hunting and to this day, some still do. They are on a higher level of intelligence compared to most other breeds. More common traits of Poodles are their eagerness to please and quick on their feet with outstanding agility skills. We adore Poodles for their playfulness and the fact they are fantastic family dogs. They are loyal, gentle and want to please, making them great companions.
Bernedoodles are a mix of the Bernese Mountain Dog and the Poodle. This mix combines the desirable traits between the two. They typically exhibit the gentle slow-going nature of the Bernese while displaying the intelligence and playful demeanor of the Poodle. Bernedoodles are known for their teddy bear appearance. Easy to train, making them suitable family companions. Additionally, one of the advantages of this breed is that they tend to benefit from the longer lifespan of Poodles compared to the average life span of a Bernese Mountain Dog.
