Breed Characteristics
Bernese Mountain Dog
The Bernese mountain dog is inherently good natured and alert. They enjoy the challenge of learning new things and should be obedience trained because of their large size at an early age, to make them pleasant household companions.

Average Weight : Male: 90-120 lbs.
Female: 70-100 lbs.
Average Height: Male: 26 in.
Female: 25 in.

Their natural instincts to guard and work on the farm carry over in the breed today. The Bernese makes a good watchdog, and is even better at herding and draft work. Draft work is demonstrated in field trails for Bernese mountain dogs and are judged on ability to both pull and have control over a cart. As a family pet, the Bernese will enjoy some physical work and a job to do. They are eager to please!

Mini Bernedoodles
The Bernedoodle is a cross between a Bernese Mountain Dog and a Poodle. Like other happy-go-lucky doodle varieties, the Bernedoodle is goofy, playful, and a bit mischievous! They are highly intelligent, loyal and hardworking. When well socialized, good with children and other dogs.
Average height: 18- 22 inches
Average Weight: 25- 49 lbs
Average Life Span: 7- 15 years
Mini Bernedoodles may get a mixture of behavioral traits from both parents, as well as a mixture of appearance. Bernedoodles can have high energy levels and crave attention and at least moderate exercise. They do best in homes where they are not left alone for long periods of time.
