RAISED WITH PURPOSE
A strong start. A confident puppy.
We give our puppies a strong start through socialization, stimulation, and play. Positive, age-appropriate experiences help them grow comfortable with new things, build confidence, and get ready for life with their new families.
Socialization
Gentle interactions help puppies build trust and feel at ease with the people and world around them.
Stimulation
Opportunities to explore encourage curiosity and help puppies become comfortable with new experiences.
Play
Play brings it all together—giving puppies room to learn, connect, and let their personalities shine.

BERNESE MOUNTAIN DOG × POODLE
About Bernedoodles
Bernedoodles combine Bernese Mountain Dog and Poodle ancestry. Many are affectionate, playful, and a little goofy, enjoying both family adventures and quiet time close to their people.
Beautifully varied coloring
Coats can include classic black, white, and rust tri-color markings, black-and-white combinations, solid colors, and phantom patterns with contrasting points. Some lines also produce merle, a mottled pattern. Colors and markings depend on the parents and may change as a puppy grows.
Personalities all their own
One puppy may be a curious explorer, another an enthusiastic playmate, and another a gentle cuddle companion. The mix offers plenty of variety: a dog’s individual temperament, early experiences, and training matter more than coat color.
Cavapoos combine Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and Poodle ancestry. Many are friendly, affectionate companions with a playful side, happiest when they can share everyday life with their family.
A palette of warm colors
Cavapoos may be red, apricot, cream, black, or chocolate, with solid coats, white markings, or two- and three-color combinations. Their coats can be wavy or curly, and shades may soften or lighten as they mature.
Small dogs with distinct personalities
Some are outgoing little greeters, some are thoughtful observers, and others are lively playmates. Many love close companionship, but every Cavapoo has its own energy level, confidence, and preferences.
Every puppy is an individual. Size, coat, shedding, and personality vary within these mixes. Regular grooming, socialization, and training are part of giving them a happy start.

What should I ask before reserving?
Ask about the parents, relevant health testing, the puppy’s care records, expected size, pricing, deposit terms, and when the puppy can go home. Confirm reservation terms directly before paying.
What should I consider when choosing a puppy?
Think about your household, daily routine, grooming needs, and the time you can spend on training. Browse the parent profiles and litter details to learn about each pairing.
What should I expect in the first days?
