We take pride Raising healthy,smart multi gen doodles with the upmost love & care.
All our parent dogs are our pets, first and foremost.
committed to raising pups using scientifically sound, ethical breeding and puppy-rearing methods, along with a lot of love and kisses.
We love our Doodles so much; we are thrilled to be able to provide deserving families with their furever best friend.
We believe a puppy is more then "just a dog" , we are trying to change the way puppy choosing is done. Rather then choosing a pup based solely on appearance, we conduct evaluations to better understand each pups personality, and best living situation, ensuring a perfect match!
We truly believe our pups are very special. And stand out from the rest.
Our breeding program is a small in home structure. We breed responsibly, as well as in a loving caring, manner. Health and temperament are a main priority; our dogs have been through extensive health testing and are all cleared.
Our entire family puts so much love into each and every pup! Including our 3 young kids, who provide multiple daily puppy snuggles, and love.
We use the puppy culture program with all our pups, which puts them in the ideal place to thrive in their furever homes. We help with resources for training, pet insurance , and nutrition. everything you may want or need in relation to your new best friend! The unconditional love, and companionship these beautiful pups bring is indescribable
We also use BAB empowered instruction in our program.
All will have been seen by our trusted vet, and have undergone puppy evaluations before allowing any selections to be made. Once we have completed these necessary pre-go-home evaluations, we supply this information about each puppy to the clients on the reservation list. At Western MA Doodles, we allow clients to make informed choices on go
home day in order of their spot on the reservation list. Some breeders choose to
match each individual puppy with a specific client, not allowing them to choose.
Neither approach is right or wrong, but it is important in either case that clients
have all of the information they need to evaluate if the puppy will be a good match for their family, and vice versa. It is amazing how almost always my clients choose the puppy I would have matched them with anyway. Human nature is a funny thing.
We want to make sure the pup meets their needs and will excel in your household.
I offer myself up to clients in advance of go home day and answer any preliminary
questions about the puppy evaluations. We hash through the pros and cons of each
pup. And a beautiful thing happens. We both work together to ensure each pup gets
the right placement- clients who understand their dog’s unique personality and how they will fit into their family. The focus is moved from solely their needs to the pup's, as well. And
that is what I want. Clients who consider what is best for the puppy as much as for them, setting up a beautiful, lifelong partnership to heal hearts and change lifes!
Truly an amazing, beautiful thing.

Bernedoodles
Bernedoodle characteristics
Bernedoodles make excellent family dogs. They are a great companion and Family Dog is the title that probably fits them best. This breed has the happy-go-lucky, playful attitude from the Bernese Mountain Dog and the intelligence of a Poodle.
Bernedoodle
Bernedoodles are goofy, charming dogs who love to play outdoors just as much as they love to cuddle up on the couch. They’re the perfect family dog and have a special fondness for children. Plus, they inherit a nearly hypoallergenic coat from their poodle heritage.
Characteristics
Appearance
Thanks to a wide variety of poodle types, most of these doodles come in an assortment of colors and sizes. The standard Bernedoodle can reach up to 29 inches in height and weigh up to 90 pounds, although ours aren't that large (around 60-70lbs tops- males are typically a bit bigger)
Most commonly, a Bernedoodle has a tricolor coat (black, white, and brown) similar to their parent breed, the Bernese mountain dog. They can also be pure black, black and white, or a random mix. The thickness of a Bernedoodle mane makes this breed suitable for colder temperatures.
Temperament
Affectionate and playful, Bernedoodles are a perfect family pet. They are especially fond of younger kids and provide a wonderful lifelong companion as children grow into adults. Although intelligent, they tend to be slightly goofy and love attention from their humans. These dogs are not typically aggressive, Provided they have been properly socialized, they’ll be able to pick up commands and social cues even around strangers. Socialization also helps a Bernedoodle feel comfortable around other animals. They can be very charming and charismatic with the proper training.
Sarah , author, trainer, and applied behaviorist loves the Bernedoodle temperament. “As a trainer, I’ve been watching their star rise for over 10 years,” Hodgson says. “What I love about this mix is that when you get a Bernedoodle from a mindful, responsible breeder, you get the sweet, mellow temperament of a Bernese blended with the sociability, smarts, and sense of humor of a poodle.”
Living Needs
Bernedoodles are the best of both worlds — they love to be active outdoors (think hiking, swimming, running, etc.), but they also love being your snuggle buddy on the couch. Personal space is not a part of their vocabulary. Therefore, they should not be left alone much. Loneliness can result in separation anxiety,
