Poodle

Highly trainable · low-shed · intelligent

Most hybrid vigor. Coat varies — some shedding possible.

The Bernedoodle was intentionally developed in 2003 by Canadian breeder Sherry Rupke, who crossed Bernese Mountain Dogs with Standard Poodles to create a family companion that preserved the Berner's gentle, affectionate nature while reducing the heavy shedding and improving the health outcomes common in purebred Berners. The breed quickly gained popularity across North America for its striking tri-color markings and gentle temperament.

The Bernedoodle blends the Bernese Mountain Dog’s gentle, patient temperament with the Poodle’s intelligence and lower-shedding coat — resulting in a family-friendly companion with friendliness ranging 85–95/100. The coat can vary significantly, especially in F1 generations; choose F1B for a more reliably low-shed puppy if shedding is a concern.

🎲

Puppies can inherit the Berner's flat coat (with shedding) or the Poodle's curly coat (low-shed). F1B is the safest bet for allergy sufferers.

Bernedoodle Buyer's Guide

Common questions answered before you buy

A Bernedoodle is a cross between a Bernese Mountain Dog (Gentle · calm · great with kids) and a Poodle (Highly trainable · low-shed · intelligent). The goal of this cross is to combine the best traits of both parents — but it's important to understand that results vary significantly from puppy to puppy, even within the same litter.

No dog is truly hypoallergenic — all dogs produce dander, saliva, and urine proteins that trigger allergies. However, the Bernedoodle is a coin-flip. Puppies can inherit the Berner's flat coat (with shedding) or the Poodle's curly coat (low-shed). F1B is the safest bet for allergy sufferers. Puppies with curlier, Poodle-dominant coats tend to shed less. Puppies with wavy or straight coats may shed noticeably. There is no guarantee until the adult coat comes in around 12–18 months. If you're buying for allergy reasons, request an F1B litter which is more consistently low-shed.

Bernedoodles typically weigh between 10–90 lbs. However, size can vary significantly depending on which parent the puppy takes after and the generation (F1 — 50/50 mix, F1B — 75% Poodle, F2 — two F1 parents). A smaller parent — particularly if one parent is a Miniature or Toy variant — will produce smaller offspring. Always ask breeders about the parent sizes, not just the breed average.

Generally yes — the Bernedoodle benefits from the trainability of both parent breeds. With trainability ranging from 75–92/100 (average around 82/100), they respond quickly to positive reinforcement and are eager to please. Early puppy classes set a strong foundation.

It depends on your priorities. **F1**: Most hybrid vigor. Coat varies — some shedding possible. **F1B**: More consistently low-shed. Good for allergy sufferers. **F2**: Coat more variable again. Calmer temperament than Aussiedoodle. For most buyers, the F1B generation offers the most predictable coat (important for allergy sufferers) while still carrying the hybrid vigour of a cross. F1 is fine if coat variability doesn't concern you. Ask breeders which generation the litter is and review both parent health records.

The Bernedoodle typically lives 12–18 years. Hybrid dogs often benefit from "hybrid vigour" — a tendency for mixed breeds to be healthier than either purebred parent. However, they can still inherit health conditions from either parent line. Ask breeders about health testing on both parents (hips, eyes, heart, depending on the parent breeds), and schedule annual vet check-ups throughout your dog's life.

Not ideally. The Bernedoodle has an energy level averaging 58/100 and needs about 45 minutes of moderate exercise daily. Without adequate space and exercise, they can become destructive or anxious in confined spaces. A home with a yard, or an owner committed to multiple daily outdoor sessions, is a better fit.
