Discover the Irresistible Charm of Tiny Bernedoodle Puppies for Sale
As a dog lover, I am always on the lookout for unique and adorable breeds. One breed that has caught my attention recently is the tiny Bernedoodle. When people think of a “mini” dog, they usually picture something the size of a Mini Poodle or a Cavalier. However, when it comes to Mini Bernedoodles, it’s important to remember that “mini” can still mean over 50 pounds, depending on the specific genes inherited from each parent. That’s why breeders decided to create a separate category for smaller Bernedoodles, known as “tiny Bernedoodles.”
So, what size is a tiny Bernedoodle exactly? Well, tiny Bernedoodles can range anywhere from 10 to 40 pounds when fully grown, with the average weight being around 20 pounds. Just imagine having a little teddy bear-like dog in your home! Some tiny Bernedoodles even have curly hair, reminiscent of their Poodle lineage. As a breeder, we focus on breeding for the fleece coat type, which is known to be more non-shedding or minimal shedding. Our tiny Bernedoodles have beautiful coats with tight curls, loose curls, or wavy textures.
One of the reasons why people are drawn to tiny Bernedoodles is their wide range of colors and patterns. When bred correctly, tiny Bernedoodles can come in tricolor, sable, merle, black, black and white, cream, chocolate, and phantom. As a breeder, we specialize in traditional tricolors, merle tricolors, and phantom tricolors. We were actually one of the first breeders to produce true F1B merle tricolor tiny Bernedoodles, which are the result of a PURE Poodle and an F1 Mini Bernedoodle. It’s important to note that we do not use Australian Shepherds in our breeding program.
In terms of temperament, tiny Bernedoodles exhibit similar characteristics to F1 Mini Bernedoodles. We prioritize breeding for calm and docile Bernedoodles, although it’s not uncommon to occasionally have a puppy with higher energy levels. Like most Bernedoodles, tiny Bernedoodles crave human companionship and love being with people. However, it’s important to teach them at a young age that it’s okay to be alone to prevent separation anxiety. At our breeding program, we offer a comprehensive training program for our tiny Bernedoodle puppies, ensuring they receive the best possible care and upbringing.
Now, let’s talk more about the size and weight of a tiny Bernedoodle. As mentioned earlier, a tiny Bernedoodle is 25% Bernese Mountain Dog and 75% Poodle. This mix results in a dog that can range from 10 to 40 pounds, with an average weight of around 20 pounds. The size of a tiny Bernedoodle is determined by the size of the parents. If a F1 Mini Bernedoodle is crossed with a Mini Poodle, the puppies will be closer to 20-40 pounds. On the other hand, if a F1 Mini Bernedoodle is crossed with a Toy Poodle, the puppies will be closer to 10-20 pounds. So, it’s important to consider the size of the parents when selecting a tiny Bernedoodle.
When it comes to exercise requirements, tiny Bernedoodles are moderately active dogs. They typically require around 20 to 30 minutes of daily exercise, which can easily be achieved through playtime or short walks. These dogs adapt well to various weather conditions, making them suitable for both hot and cold climates. They are playful and energetic but can also match their energy level to yours. So, whether you feel like snuggling on the couch or playing fetch in the backyard, your tiny Bernedoodle will be by your side, ready to join in the fun.
As breeders, we understand the importance of socializing your tiny Bernedoodle from an early age. This helps them become well-rounded dogs, comfortable in various situations. Tiny Bernedoodles are great with kids of all ages and can be gentle enough even for the youngest children. Thanks to their friendly and gentle nature, they also make excellent service and therapy dogs. However, it’s important to supervise interactions between your tiny Bernedoodle and small children to ensure their safety. Additionally, these dogs are intelligent and eager to please, which makes them easy to train. They quickly learn commands and can excel in activities like agility training.
Now, let’s talk about the cost and grooming needs of a tiny Bernedoodle. The cost of a tiny Bernedoodle can vary depending on the breeder, but on average, they range from $4000 to $4500. It’s important to note that tiny Bernedoodles are generally more expensive than standard or mini Bernedoodles due to their non-shedding or minimal shedding coats. While they may be low shedding, it doesn’t mean they don’t require any grooming. In fact, the level of grooming depends on the specific genes inherited from their parents. Dogs with more Poodle genes will require more frequent grooming, while those with more Bernese genes will require fewer trips to the groomer. It’s recommended to brush your tiny Bernedoodle at least three times a week and schedule a cut or trim every 6-8 weeks. Regular brushing, especially in areas prone to matting, such as behind the ears and the belly, will help maintain their coat’s health and prevent any discomfort.
In conclusion, owning a tiny Bernedoodle can be a rewarding and joyful experience. These dogs bring a unique mix of the Bernese Mountain Dog’s temperament and the Poodle’s non-shedding coat. They are loyal, affectionate, and highly intelligent. Whether you live in an apartment or a small area, a tiny Bernedoodle can be a great option for a family looking for a smaller dog with a big heart. They are excellent with kids of all ages and can even serve as therapy or service dogs. With proper socialization and training, your tiny Bernedoodle will bring immense joy and companionship to your life.
