General Description

---

The Saint Berdoodle is a mixed breed that is a cross between the Poodle and the Saint Bernard. Like many hybrid breeds, the Saint Berdoodle has become popular in the last few years as a designer breed. The Saint Berdoodle typically has features from both the Poodle and the Saint Bernard breed. This breed of dog typically has the size of the Saint Bernard but will typically have a Poodle coat.

As a result of inheriting its coat from the Poodle the Saint Berdoodle will usually not shed very at all, if any. For this reason, the Saint Berdoodle is considered to be a very good dog for people who are prone to allergies and need a dog that is hypo-allergenic.

For the most part, a Saint Berdoodle will be white with red markings, although there are some cases where the reverse will be true and the Saint Berdoodle will have a red coat with white markings.

The Saint Berdoodle may be a first generation or a second generation dog, like many hybrid breeds. A first generation Saint Berdoodle is the result of breeding a purebred Saint Bernard and Poodle. A second generation Saint Berdoodle is produced by breeding two Saint Berdoodles. Due to the fact that the Saint Berdoodle is a mixed breed and is not a purebred, it is not usually able to be registered with purebred registries. There are some hybrid registries that will now register hybrids.

General Health

The Saint Berdoodle does not have any serious health issues that are known at this time. Like many hybrid breeds, this dog tends to take the best from both breeds and does not usually suffer from health problems that are often present in the Poodle or the Saint Bernard breeds. Although it is not usually a serious issue, the Saint Berdoodle will usually need to have its ears and eyes checked frequently to check for possible infections. Prospective owners who are concerned about health issues should thoroughly check the health histories of the parents to be sure the dog is not susceptible to possible problems.

History

---

The Saint Berdoodle originated in the United States and was bred specifically to bring out the best of both breeds. It has become very popular in the last few years as a designer breed.

Maintenance

The Saint Berdoodle is a large breed and as a result will require more exercise than would be needed among smaller breeds. As a result, it is necessary for this dog to be taken out for a daily walk. Generally, the Saint Berdoodle will not need a significant amount of grooming. Brushing on a regular basis can help with shedding if the dog has inherited a Saint Bernard coat. Generally, the dog will only need to be washed when necessary or about once per month. This breed will need to have its ears and eyes checked on a regular basis to reduce the chance for infection.

When provided with proper care and regular check-ups the Saint Berdoodle tends to have a life expectancy of about 12 years.

Ideal Environment

---

The best environment for the Saint Berdoodle will be one in which the dog can live outside due to its large size. Prospective owners should be aware of the fact that while this is a large dog that should usually live outside, it does still enjoy spending time with the family and will need human companionship on a regular basis.

Saint Berdoodles should be in an environment with a master that is able to handle their large size. It is usually a good idea to provide this dog with early training, especially with a leash to minimize problems. Saint Berdoodles are intelligent dogs and they love to learn. As a result, they will usually take to training well.

Ask a QuestionSaint Berdoodle Q&A

Saint Bernards seem to drool and slobber a lot. Does that same characteristic carry over to the Saint Berdoodle?

Drooling is greatly minimized as a result of the poodle influence. There may however be some water loss when drinking that resembles drooling. It is not however as prominant as with pure breed Saint Bernards.
