The most requested Doodle breed breakdown is here — Bernedoodles! 🐾

Did you know 2023 marked the 20th anniversary of Bernedoodles’ intentional breeding? Since then, they’ve become one of the most popular and beloved Doodle mixes. But are Bernedoodles the right fit for your family?

💡 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
✔️ The history & origins of the Bernedoodle
✔️ Sizes, lifespans & coat types (and what to expect from each)
✔️ Personality, temperament & trainability — including stubborn streaks
✔️ Common health concerns & what to look for in a responsible breeder
✔️ How Bernedoodles compare to Goldendoodles
✔️ Why Bernedoodles may not be the best choice for every household

📖 From my book, Your Doodle’s Daily Schedule Blueprint™:
“Bernedoodles come with their own ‘operating software.’ The Bernese Mountain Dog side often brings loyalty, guarding, and a slow-to-mature nature, while the Poodle adds brilliance and intensity. Without structure, that software can glitch — showing up as clinginess, stubbornness, or overprotectiveness. With a predictable daily rhythm, Bernedoodles thrive as calm, loyal companions.”
