Health & Life Span
Health Testing
We do genetic testing on all of our parent dogs. We use Paw Prints Genetics to do this. We also do OFA testing on our parent dogs.
You may always ask to see the test results on any of our adult dogs.

Size, Health and Lifespan
F1 STANDARD BERNEDOODLE
The average size of our Standards is 65 to 95 lbs. full grown. However, some have gotten as large as 120 lbs. so we want you to be aware that it is a possibility for them to get up to that weight when you get a standard Bernedoodle.

F1 MINIATURE BERNEDOODLE
Our Mini Bernedoodles get to be between 20 to 60 lbs. full grown. This is a wide range in size but we can give you a better idea what size they will be when you decide which litter you would like to choose from. The daddies have a lot to do with the difference in size.

F1b TINY/MICRO MINI BERNEDOODLE
Our Tiny Bernedoodles typically range in size from 12 to 25 lbs. We have been hearing that some of our Tiny’s have gotten as large as 30 lbs. and some stayed as small as 10 lbs. When you choose your puppy around 4 to 5 weeks old we will have a better idea on how small or large they will be full grown.

From research we have done, these are the estimated lifespans of our Bernedoodle puppies.
Tiny/Micro-Mini Bernedoodle: up to 18 years
Mini Bernedoodle: up to 17 years
Standard Bernedoodle: 12-15
We realize the Bernedoodle as a breed is still quite young and therefore lifespan is mostly just an estimate however, we are happy to say that we are still in contact with puppies that came from our first litters of Bernedoodles in 2016. We are happy to report that in our many years of raising Bernedoodles we have heard of very few serious health issues regarding our puppies.

Health Guarantee
- To the best of the seller’s knowledge this puppy is sound and in good health. It is understood that the puppy is to be taken to a licensed veterinarian within 1 week of the purchase. If the puppy is not examined by a vet of the buyer’s choice within 1 week from purchase, this contract is null and void.
- If the puppy is found to have a genetic disorder by the veterinarian within the first 2 years of the puppy’s life, we will replace the puppy at no cost to the buyer. We provide this warranty for two years after the date of sale against any debilitating congenital defects. In the event the puppy exhibits symptoms of a suspected debilitating congenital defect, the buyer must supply any requested veterinary records to the seller within seven days of informing the seller of the defect. We have the right to require a second opinion from a veterinarian of the seller’s choice at the seller’s expense.
- Hypoglycemia, malnutrition, dehydration, and physical exhaustion are not covered under the terms of this contract.
- You as the owner are required to: give all immunizations (including rabies), keep them on a regular worming schedule that your vet recommends, check for internal parasites every three months until one year of age, start the puppy on heartworm prevention between four and six months of age. Please understand that although your puppy has been on a regular worming schedule the stress of the move can bring out conditions that were dormant. These conditions are all treatable and your puppy will just need a little time to adjust to being in his/her new home.
- For purposes of this agreement, once the puppy leaves the sellers premises, it is under the buyer’s responsibility and the seller is no longer responsible for any veterinary bills. If any treatment is rendered it is at the expense of the buyer.
- Seller is bound only to the original buyer. No warranties expressed or implied are made under the terms of the contract except as stated above.
- I, the buyer, agree to take my puppy to a licensed vet within 1 week of purchase to validate this written contract.

I have read the above contract in full and understand all the terms.
