What is a Bernedoodle Puppy?

The Bernedoodle is a generation cross between two wonderful purebreds: the Bernese Mountain Dog and Poodle. This successful hybrid has been known to have intelligence, loyalty towards its human family members, gentle nature like that of its parent’s breeds and excel in interactivity with people.

Bernedoodles are very gentle around children and the elderly and they are known to make excellent therapy dogs.

Most Bernedoodle puppies have a moderate activity level. Like most dogs, they love to play and go for walks. As a puppy and adult dog, they may stop and explore if something catches their interest, but they never stray far. If they take after their Poodle parent, they may even have a knack for retrieving and can spend endless hours bringing back balls and sticks.
