Bella's Berners Plus

The Bernerdoodle is a cross between a Bernese Mountain Dog and a Poodle. This Hybrid blends the clever goofiness of the Poodle with the placid loyalty of the Bernese. What’s more, the Bernerdoodle is low to non-shedding and is a safe bet for most people with allergies. 

- Next to the pure bred Bernese Mountain Dog the Bernerdoodle is the perfect companion dog for the outdoors enthusiasts. Although many are stunning, they are not bred for the show ring. They are meant to be at your side no matter whether you are hiking, snowshoeing or lying on the couch watching TV. Their only job is to be your best friend!

- No two Bernerdoodles are identical. The genes from the parent breeds meld in unique ways and its endlessly fascinating to see what each litter produces. That said, prospective owners must understand that there can be a lot of variation in a hybrid litter and must choose a breeder who can help them match the best dog for their circumstances.

- Crossing purebred dogs of different breeds results in puppies that are healthier than either of their parents. This is because the two breeds are generally prone to different genetic problems. Hybrids such as the bernerdoodle are only likely to inherit a health problem that is common to both the poodle and the Bernese – two breeds that share few common diseases. Bernerdoodles therefore have what is referred to as “Hybrid Vigor” and can be expected to live healthier, longer lives than their purebred parents, which means more time for the family with their pet.
