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.
add infoThe Saint Berdoodle's combination of intelligence and limited supply of energy make it the star in group training classes. They are eager to perform then follow up with a brief nap. Overall while it needs regular exercise, they are quick to tire out and may need several breaks during the day.

In addition, this breed will also get along well with other pets, especially if it has been socialized at an early age.

add infoThe 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. On average, they live 10 to 12 years.
