Bernedoodle Breeds, Sizes & Information
Multigenerational Bernedoodles at Shady Oak Doodles
Our Multigenerational Bernedoodles
At Shady Oak Doodles, we specialize in multigenerational Bernedoodles and have spent years carefully developing our breeding program. We select our parent dogs with an emphasis on health, temperament, structure, size and coat traits to produce consistent Bernedoodles that make wonderful family companions.
What is a multigenerational Bernedoodle?
A multigenerational Bernedoodle, often called a multigen Bernedoodle, is a later-generation Bernedoodle produced from carefully selected Bernedoodle or compatible Doodle parentage rather than a first-generation Bernese Mountain Dog and Poodle cross. Multigenerational breeding allows us to make more intentional selections for the traits that are important to our program.
What sizes of Bernedoodles does Shady Oak Doodles breed?
We breed several Bernedoodle sizes, from small companion dogs to traditional Standard Bernedoodles:
Munchkin Bernedoodles: 15–25 pounds
Micro Mini Bernedoodles: 12–20 pounds
Mini Bernedoodles: 20–40 pounds
Medium Bernedoodles: 40–60 pounds
Standard Bernedoodles: 50–90 pounds
Our Munchkin Bernedoodles are a Bernedoodle × Cavapoo cross developed to offer families a smaller companion while maintaining the traits we value in our breeding program.
What type of coats do your Bernedoodles have?
Our Bernedoodles have non-shedding coats and can have beautiful straight to loose-wavy coat types depending on their genetics. We carefully evaluate coat genetics and other traits when planning each breeding.
How do you select your breeding dogs?
Our breeding dogs undergo genetic health testing, and our program also utilizes orthopedic, cardiac and eye health screening. Every pairing is thoughtfully planned with consideration for health, temperament, structure, size and coat genetics.
