About Bernedoodle Puppies, Breeders & DogFacts

The Bernedoodle, a cross between the Bernese Mountain Dog and the Poodle, is a medium to extra large companion not recognized by the AKC but registered through designer organizations such as the ACHC and IDCR. Depending on Poodle parent size, adults range from 18 to 29 inches and 25 to 90 plus pounds. F1, F1B, and multigen litters produce wavy to curly coats in black, black and white, tricolor, or sable, with lower shedding curls more common in F1B crosses. Expect the Bernese's mellow, affectionate loyalty paired with the Poodle's quick wit and playful goofiness. Health concerns are inherited from both parents (see health panel). Best suited to families with yard space and time for weekly brushing, daily exercise, and steady companionship.

Parent Breeds

This is a designer cross combining: Bernese Mountain Dog + Poodle. As a mixed breed cross, individual puppies may inherit traits from either parent breed in varying degrees. Health testing requirements and temperament expectations should be evaluated for both parent breeds.

About these recommendations. PuppyReports surfaces the basic health screening recommendations for each breed in accordance with the principles established by the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) Canine Health Information Center (CHIC) program. The OFA, working with each breed’s primary US parent club, sets the recommended testing list per breed. Recommendations may vary by country and region (US OFA CHIC, European FCI, UK Kennel Club, Australian National Kennel Council, etc.). Always review current requirements with your breed’s parent club for your jurisdiction. Last reviewed: 2026-05-02.
