🧬 What Affects the Price of a Bernedoodle?

Several factors influence the cost of a Bernedoodle. Let’s break them down:

1. Size of the Dog

Smaller Bernedoodles (like Micro or Tiny) tend to be more expensive due to the difficulty and selectiveness of breeding smaller lines.

2. Generation (F1, F1b, F2, etc.)

• F1 (50% Bernese, 50% Poodle): Generally less expensive
  
  

• F1b (75% Poodle, 25% Bernese): Often more hypoallergenic, so priced higher
  
  

• Multigen: Usually priced highest due to consistency in coat and health traits
  
  

3. Coat Type and Color

Desirable colors and patterns like:

• Tri-color
  
  

• Merle
  
  

• Phantom
  
  

• Sable
  
  

…can add $500–$1,000 to the base price.

4. Breeder Reputation and Location

Experienced, ethical breeders who health-test parents, offer guarantees, and provide post-purchase support often charge more — and rightfully so. Prices may also vary based on regional demand.

5. Training and Socialization

Some breeders offer pre-trained or started puppies (crate, potty, basic obedience), which can raise the price by $1,000 or more.

📦 What’s Included in the Price?

A quality Bernedoodle breeder typically includes:

• First vaccinations
  
  

• Deworming
  
  

• Health guarantee (usually 1–2 years)
  
  

• Microchipping
  
  

• Puppy starter kit (food, toy, blanket, etc.)
  
  

• Lifetime breeder support
  
  

Always confirm what's included before purchasing.

🚩 Beware of “Too Good to Be True” Prices

If you see Bernedoodles listed for $500 or less, proceed with caution. Low prices often signal:

• Puppy mills or backyard breeders
  
  

• Lack of health testing
  
  

• Poor breeding conditions
  
  

• Puppy scams (especially online)
  
  

You’re not just buying a pet — you’re investing in a healthy, happy companion for years to come.

🐶 Is the Bernedoodle Worth the Price?

Absolutely — if you choose the right breeder and understand the long-term commitment. Bernedoodles are known for being:

• Affectionate and family-friendly
  
  

• Low-shedding and allergy-friendly
  
  

• Highly intelligent and trainable
  
  

The joy they bring to your home is truly priceless.

📝 Final Thoughts: Make an Informed Decision

Before purchasing, take your time to:

• Research breeders thoroughly
  
  

• Visit or video tour facilities
  
  

• Ask about health tests and certifications
  
  

• Review contracts and guarantees
  
  

When you find the right fit, the price of a Bernedoodle becomes a valuable investment in a loyal, loving family member.
