F1 mini Bernedoodle litter
Riverbend’s AKC Bernese Hedi is being bred to the breeder’s mini poodle stud Eli this September. If all goes well, puppies are expected around mid-November and will be ready for new homes around mid-January. F1 mini Bernedoodles typically finish around 25-45 lbs and 18-22 inches at the shoulder. The designer-breed litter will register with CKC, not AKC. Join the waitlist now to hear first.
