Adopt a Poodle (Standard) / Saint Bernard / Mixed
Berdoodle the Dog needs a home
Located in PA and OH.
Update 02/16/2018 The Berdoodles are receiving treatments to eradicate parasites. The dogs will be available when they have been clear for 7 days.
There is NO guarantee they are hypoallergenic. To our knowledge, they are St. Bernard/standard Poodle mix. Their fur is very high maintenance. It's very easily matted and will need daily brushing, and at least monthly grooming/baths to prevent matting. People with 'doodle' experience will know the time and cost necessary to maintain a healthy skin and coat.
Lastly, some, not all, of these dogs are terrified of people, outside, and every new experience. Adopters must be available and willing to spend LOTS of time socializing and potty training and building a bond of trust with the dog. This is not a litter of average puppies. They need more than the usual time and attention for puppies at this age.
To ensure proper house training and socialization, puppies will only be adopted to homes where an adult will not be away more than an hour per day, per month of age of the puppy, up to 6 months.
Puppies will be adopted out on a 'foster to adopt' basis. This means that if/when your application is approved, you sign a contract stating you are fostering the puppy until the time it is neutered/spayed at your expense. Once this is done, and you have shown us proof of spay/neuter, we will send you a contract that makes the puppy legally yours. If you haven't had your puppy altered by the age of 6 months, we will take possession of the puppy once again.
