Our dogs are treasures to us! Short hair, long hair, clean & dirty.
Our family is pretty low maintenance. And, our dogs fit right in.
The things we do daily include, lots of tummy rubs, snuggling and petting. We either take longs walks or play in the backyard with Cora & Ruby every day. We love being outside and growing fresh food, so they get access to 5 people who want to be outside as much as they do!
They are exercised daily, by either the humans or the squirrels they chase in our backyard, and trained to fetch and follow simple commands. We are confident we could train them to do more if we needed them too, bernedoodles can be great service & therapy dogs.
We give them access to high quality food and water around the clock, and the only scraps they get are fresh fruits and veggies. They regulate their own eating and drinking. Both Cora & Ruby potty trained very quickly compared to other breeds we’ve had and they’ve always been excellent at nighttime sleep.
We bathe them when they get too dirty to jump on our beds and we are the Bernedoodle owners that like them with short & long hair, so we save our pennies and get a super short haircut three times a year and then let it get extra long in between. They look forward to grooming as much as we do, but we love them all the same in between haircuts!
We think the best owners include people who love companion pets. We keep them with us most of the time and we believe they are happiest that way. When we’re inside, they are and when we’re outside, they are with us too! We do crate them when we’re not home, but that is very rare (especially in a year like 2020!). They have a bed they sleep in at night, in our room and are happy to have their own space.
If you’re curious about anything from the food we feed, to the shampoo we use, just ask us! We learned everything through the kindness of strangers, based on our own curiosity. Don’t be afraid to ask questions when you’re picking the perfect pet, that’s what a small breeder loves to do! We could talk about Cora & Ruby all day.
