Mini Berendoodle Puppy

[tom sauer]

I'm searching for a Mini Berendoodle can anyone point me in the right direction?  Thank you!

[F, Calla & Luca]

I agree with what you've said. And the puppies are adorable.

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

Thanks, BG, but I don't need this guy's approval. The site and I are both doing fine without it. I think the site would be better served by Tom's making good on his threat and leaving. Another name-calling jerk who comes here asking questions and then attacks long-time contributing members of the community who don't respond with the answer he wanted.

I can't help myself Karen.  I keep hearing Joanne's voice (or what I imagine to be Joanne's Ohioan x Greek Goddess voice to be like) in my head saying "We need to educate!"

I got our dog from Plantation Delight. We LOVE our dog. But we do have a lot of problems with her. Do we regret having Joey in our life? No. But if we knew then what we know now, I would NOT have gone to Plantation Delight.

Tom, I'd still like you to list the things you want in a dog if possible.  Most doodle breeder sites list the 'ideal' because they want to sell pups.  And it isn't clear to me that the description of the bernedoodle is that different from what most people say about goldendoodles or labradoodles.  The difference is that there are more labradoodle and goldendoodle breeders to choose from.  Not the case for bernedoodles.  Since our members are primarily owners of LD's or GD's...you won't get much in the way of referrals for other doodles here.  But you also won't find a bernedoodle site with even a quarter of our membership, so our opinion, while OUR opinion, has some weight I think.

Jeepers, this breeder charges people, who are not customers, for a look at her information page. That alone would scare me.

She also has more dogs than could live happily with her, yet I found no mention of guardian homes.

[Sue, Murphy and Bella ()*o*()]

There does seem to be a lot of dogs there. Another red flag.

[Adina P]

LOL...luckily babies come out relatively small regardless of adult size.

[F, Calla & Luca]

But there are a lot of C-sections, some of them necessary and some of them are for cephalopelvic disproportion.

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

Humans are different. There are not different "breeds" of humans with very different skeletal structures. But there is a huge variation in skeletal structure among dogs, and not just dogs of different sizes. Think about a dachshund's skeletal structure as opposed to a whippet's. I read an article about the differences in the lengths and angles of the loins and hocks among different breeds and how even that could affect the hip joint itself in mixed breed dogs, even when there isn't much size difference and even when the parents' hips were fine.

I have heard of severe HP in puppies from mini or toy poodles and full-sized retrievers where both parents were hip tested.

Even so, 250 versus 100 is quite different than 120 versus than say 20, in terms of proportionate weight and height is even less a factor. A man may be 6 foot four and a woman 5 feet. Quite different than dogs who can be twice as tall, or more than one another.
