Do Saint Berdoodles shed?
Because a St. Berdoodle is a mixed breed between a Poodle and a Saint Bernard (a breed that sheds a lot), Saint Berdoodles do shed. However, they don’t shed nearly as much as purebred Saint Bernards, and compared to other dog breeds, they don’t shed as much.
Because there are different types of Saint Berdoodles (f1 Saint Berdoodles, f1b Saint Berdoodles, f2 Saint Berdoodles, etc.), your dog will shed according to the type of doodle you own. More specifically, it depends on the percentage of Poodle vs. St. Bernard in your dog. If your dog is more Poodle, it won’t shed as much as if it was a higher percentage of Saint Bernard.
St. Berdoodles come in 3 different coat types: straight, wavy, and curly. A straight coat Saint Berdoodle has very straight hair. A wavy coat occurs when a dog gets one curl gene from one parent and one non-curl gene from the other. Lastly, when each parent contributes a curl gene, the Saint Berdoodle puppy ends up with a curly coat. Although this type of coat can be harder to brush, dogs with this coat are the least likely to shed.
Are Saint Berdoodles hypoallergenic?
Truth be told, no dog breed is ever truly 100% hypoallergenic. All dogs have fur that can shed, making it a potential issue for people who have allergies. Despite being completely hypoallergenic, Saint Berdoodles are an allergy-friendly dog breed.
This is due to the incorporation of Poodles into the breed mix. Pet dander, saliva, and urine are the three elements that produce allergic reactions. Luckily, Poodles have only a single coat with low dander, and their fur is non-shedding. Therefore, if your Saint Berdoodle is more Poodle than Bernese mountain dog, your pet will be more allergy-friendly. In other words, a F1b Saint Berdoodle will be more allergy friendly than a f1 Saint Berdoodle.
How big do Saint Berdoodles get?
When it comes to Saint Berdoodle size, there are generally two classes: miniature Saint Berdoodles and standard Saint Berdoodles.
Mini Saint Berdoodles will generally weigh between 35-70 pounds when they’re full grown Saint Berdoodles. These dogs will usually stand at 18-22 inches tall.
Standard Saint Berdoodles are the most popular size, and they’re great for people who prefer the security of a bigger dog. Saint Berdoodles can be anywhere from 70-200 pounds. They measure in at around 22-30 inches. Because this is the biggest type of Saint Berdoodle, these dogs require more space to run around and play.
How much does a Saint Berdoodle cost?
Pricing for Saint Berdoodles depends on a number of factors, although a general price tag will fall between $600-1200.
There are also a number of factors that affect their price, such as:
Color: There are a number of different Saint Berdoodle colors. In addition to the typical red Saint Berdoodle or brown Saint Berdoodle colors, you can find Saint Berdoodle breeders who specialize in breeding tri color Saint Berdoodles, or white Saint Berdoodles, among others. The more “exotic” the color, the higher the price tag.
Coat: Breeders charge different prices based on the coat. Essentially, the more “Poodle” within the dog’s genetics, the more allergy-friendly the dog is. This can sometimes result in a higher price tag.
Size: Because the most common size of Saint Berdoodles is the standard size, you can expect to pay more money for a smaller version of an Saint Berdoodle.
Location & Demand: Prices can fluctuate based on where you live along with how high the demand is for an Saint Berdoodle. Bigger metropolitan cities such as San Francisco or New York will often have higher price tags, both because of the higher general cost of living, but also because these cities usually have a higher demand for allergy-friendly dogs.
How long do Saint Berdoodles live?
In general, Saint Berdoodles will live between 8-10 years. There are a few factors that can result in outliers, however. Smaller dogs, for example, usually live longer than larger dogs. Because of this, a mini Saint Berdoodle will be expected to live longer than a standard size doodle. An increased lifespan can also be attributed to crossbreeding (crossbred dogs usually outlive their purebred counterparts) along with purchasing a dog from a reputable breeder.
What’s a Saint Berdoodle’s temperament?
Because of their playful and companion-oriented personalities, Saint Berdoodles are perfect family dogs and are especially good around children. They’re very affectionate and love to be around humans. They’re also very athletic and love to play.
How Much Exercise Do St. Berdoodles Need?
All St. Berdoodles need plenty of exercise, regardless of size. These dogs are high energy and love to play fetch, go for walks, or run around in the yard. They need at least one hour of exercise per day, so if you’re not an active person, a St. Berdoodle might not be the right breed for you. However, if you’re up for some daily exercise and have a big yard or live near a park, a St. Berdoodle would make a great addition to your family!
Grooming Requirements
St. Berdoodles have medium-length fur that requires some grooming. They should be brushed at least once a week to prevent mats and tangles. They also need to be trimmed every few months, and their nails should be clipped regularly. Overall, St. Berdoodles are relatively low-maintenance when it comes to grooming, but they do require some care to keep their fur looking its best.
Best Food for St. Berdoodles
When it comes to food, all St. Berdoodles need a high-quality diet that’s rich in protein and nutrients. Giant St. Berdoodles, in particular, need a lot of food to maintain their energy levels. So if you have a giant St. Berdoodle, be prepared to spend a bit more on food than you would for a smaller dog. Mini St. Berdoodles, on the other hand, don’t eat as much and can get by on a lower-quality diet. But no matter what size your St. Berdoodle is, always make sure they have access to fresh water and plenty of food.
When looking for high-quality dog food brands, you want to look especially for:
- A variety of meat sources
- No fillers or artificial ingredients
- Plenty of vitamins and minerals
And just as important, these are considered red flags in dog food:
- Excessive amounts of grain
- By-products
- Artificial colors or flavors
While there are plenty of great dog food brands out there, we recommend doing your research to find the best food for your St. Berdoodle. Every dog is different, so what works for one might not work for another.
Conclusion
When you think about the perfect dog, you probably think about an incredibly cute dog that’s also loyal, loving, and great with your family. If that sounds like your kind of dog, then a Saint Berdoodle might be in your future. No matter if you’re an individual or you’re looking to bring a dog into a large family, you’re sure to enjoy the addition of your loyal, friendly new family member!
