A tiny Bernadoodle painting I made
This little face made me think of quiet summer afternoons, soft grass, and nowhere important to be.

It has been so very hot, that we did a shorter summer cut for Tucker. The first ones are the new cut and the last couple are before pictures. He looks and feels so much better! Our groomer does such a nice job and we love the bow she gave him this time.
No better way to spend a rainy Sunday afternoon than with a good book and my best cuddle buddy (my arm has been asleep for ages)
For context: my parents are moving in with my grandmother who isn’t a dog person and also doesn’t have the space. Their two year old standard size male Bernedoodle absolutely loves my fiancé and I and we have a large house with a big fenced in backyard so it seems perfect that he come live with us for a long time or even forever (and my parents agree). The problem is they don’t exercise him or discipline much so he is very hyper. He’s bad about jumping and I’d like that to be mostly controlled so we can enjoy when people come over. I want your best advice and tips/tricks for training and any exercise recommendations to help keep their energy levels down. We’ll obviously do long walks but what else do they love?
The second issue is that we have a 6 year old cat that absolutely hated this dog when he was a small puppy and I’m concerned that this will disrupt her life. I don’t want him to terrorize her since she’s just gotten comfortable in our newer home. If anyone has advice on how to re-acquaint them and help it go smoothly I would appreciate it so much! Again, she hasn’t been around him since he was a few months old and he has calmed a bit since then but we’re going to have him over soon just to see how they do initially. He is such a smart, sweet boy and I would love to bring out the best in him!
Our first Berndoodle. Do they really like to swim? She likes the water so much we had to buy her a small pool and a Lazy Daisy 🌼.
Some of it has to be the heat but here she is asking if she can get in the bathtub.🛀
I know a lot of dogs of all breeds have this problem but of the half dozen dogs I've had as an adult Buddy is the first one I've had that is legitimately afraid of fireworks.
He was barking last night when he heard them from inside the house and I thought it was another one of his silly quirks. But he was in the backyard about a half hour ago for a toilet break and someone set off a huge series and he was crying at the door. I opened it and he ran to his kennel and hid.
Does anyone else have a Bernedoodle that has the same problem? Is there something you do to help them through it?
And yes, he's a Bernedoodle, that is just his Arizona summer cut.
Gunnar & Remi, our patriotic pups, had a fun-filled 4th! We hope you all did too! 😊🇺🇸🫶🏻🐶❤️🤍💙
Our bernedoodle Ridley was hogging most of our couch pillows this morning. He was clearly flabbergasted and offended that I would accuse him of such a thing! As his human, I should clearly know there's no such thing as too many pillows.
Does anyone else have a pillow hog? 😄
This guy...😂
This is from his groom this week, today Bernie went to his first parade!
18 weeks old and close to 30lbs. Barnabas is going to be as big as Barkley from Sesame Street!!!
