Aussie Bernedoodle Puppies
Aussie Bernedoodles (sometimes referred to elsewhere as Aussie Mountain Doodles or Australian Mountain Doodles) are a thoughtful cross that combines the Australian Shepherd, Bernese Mountain Dog, and Poodle. They are often appreciated for their affectionate nature, steady temperament, and strong bonds with their families.
At DreamDoods, our program is built around intentional, thoughtful pairing with the goal of maintaining meaningful representation of all three parent breeds. We prioritize preserving the identifiable traits, temperament qualities, and physical characteristics that come from the Australian Shepherd, Bernese Mountain Dog, and Poodle alike, rather than allowing any one breed influence to dominate over time.
Many Aussie Bernedoodles thrive in homes where companionship, routine, and meaningful engagement are part of daily life. They tend to enjoy both gentle activity and calm connection, making them well suited to families seeking a balanced companion. With the right environment and commitment, they can grow into deeply devoted, emotionally intuitive lifelong dogs.

DreamDoods currently focuses on thoughtfully bred, standard and medium-sized Aussie Bernedoodles.
Temperament & Family Fit
Aussie Bernedoodles are commonly valued for their affectionate temperament, emotional attunement, and strong desire for connection. Many form close bonds with their families and prefer to be included in daily life rather than left alone for long periods.
Their temperament often reflects a blend of the Bernese Mountain Dog’s gentle steadiness, the Australian Shepherd’s awareness and responsiveness, and the Poodle’s intelligence and adaptability. With consistent care, structure, and positive guidance, they tend to grow into calm, people-focused companions
As with all dogs, individual temperament can vary, but homes that offer companionship, stability, and ongoing engagement often see these dogs thrive.

Size, Coat & Care Expectations
Size & Build
DreamDoods Aussie Bernedoodles are currently bred in medium-to-standard size ranges. Adult size can vary based on lineage and individual development, but they are generally suited to families seeking a substantial yet manageable companion.
Coat & Shedding
Coats can range from wavy to light curly, depending on generation, and may vary in density. While many are considered very low-shedding, no coat is completely maintenance-free. Regular brushing supports coat health and comfort.
For individuals with sensitivities related to hair, certain pairings and coat types may be more suitable depending on individual needs.
Grooming & Routine
Consistent routines that include companionship, daily movement, and ongoing guidance support emotional and behavioral wellbeing. Coat care typically involves regular brushing and periodic professional grooming.
