The Australian Mountain Doodle is a delightful cross between the Aussiedoodle and the Bernedoodle. This unique breed offers the best of all three parent breeds. With the health and intelligence of the Australian Shepherd, the gentle and affectionate nature of the Bernese Mountain Dog, and the hypoallergenic and long-lived qualities of the Standard Poodle, the Australian Mountain Doodle is a perfect blend of traits.
If you're torn between the Aussiedoodle and Bernedoodle, the Australian Mountain Doodle is the ideal choice. You'll get the best of both worlds in one delightful package.
Our goal is to create a dog with a longer lifespan and a more moderate energy level, ideal for the average household. We combine the intelligence, trainability, and athleticism of the Australian Shepherd with the easygoing nature, loyalty, and gentle disposition of the Bernese Mountain Dog. Adding the Poodle's hypoallergenic coat, intelligence, and loyalty is the cherry on top.
Australian Mountain Doodles have a delightful variety of coats, which can be straight, wavy, or curly, depending on the generation and parents used. Most Australian Mountain Doodles shed very little to none, making them a great choice for people with allergies. Our Australian Mountain Doodles are recommended for those with mild pet allergies.
The Australian Mountain Doodle coat is easy to maintain when brushed frequently and trimmed regularly. Daily brushing and professional grooming every 6-8 weeks will keep their coat tangle-free and beautiful.
Our Australian Mountain Doodles are one-of-a-kind beauties, coming in a variety of colors such as tricolor and merle. We focus mainly on chocolate and blue merle, as well as chocolate and black tricolor. Tricolor Australian Mountain Doodles are either black or chocolate with white, accompanied by the traditional copper trim on their face, legs, chest, and above the eyes. Merle Australian Mountain Doodles are either blue or chocolate merle and white with copper trim.
At Hazel River Doodles, we focus primarily on Miniature Australian Mountain Doodles. Our mini's will average around 20 - 30 pounds in weight, and 19 - 22 inches in height, depending on the sex and genetic influences.
The Australian Mountain Doodle is a loyal, loving, and gentle breed. They make excellent family dogs and are usually well-suited for children of all ages. Their friendly demeanor makes them great candidates for service or therapy work, or simply as wonderful family companions.
Australian Mountain Doodles are an incredibly people-oriented breed. They are very eager to please their owners and are typically highly food motivated. Paired with high intelligence, we consider them to be an easily trainable breed, making house training a breeze.
Australian Mountain Doodles enjoy a moderate amount of exercise and mental stimulation to ensure they are happy and healthy. Engaging them in walks, playing fetch, or playing tug-of-war are all effective ways for them to expend their energy.
Their Miniature Aussiedoodle heritage is known to be quite active and requires a sense of purpose in their daily lives. On the other hand, their Miniature Bernedoodle heritage is known to be more lethargic, but they still meed moderate exercise and enrichment to stay healthy.
However, each puppy has their own personality, satisfactions, and requirements, and these may change throughout their lifetime as well. It's important to monitor their behaviors and keep them engaged to meet their personal lifestyle.
