There is much confusion regarding the generations of Bernedoodles. There is so much misinformation online regarding the different generations and the benefits/drawbacks of specific generations.
I often have customers requesting a specific generation for no real reason other than they felt that is the generation that they want based on reading information on the internet. Instead, I ask them to refocus on what type of coat type, color, and size that they want. There is no reason to focus on a specific generation if you are simply looking for a healthy and attractive pet.
I have been breeding Bernedoodles for about seven years and I have noticed no difference in the health of any different generation of Bernedoodle. There is no evidence that a specific generation of the Bernedoodle will affect the health of the puppy. All of our Bernedoodles have been bred for the three things we focus on: temperament, beauty, and health.
Instead of focusing on the generation which will mean little to a buyer, it is important to narrow down what is important to the buyer’s lifestyle. One more thing I will mention–Bernedoodle generation and allergy friendliness are not really correlated. A person can be allergic to either saliva or dander, and if you are allergic to saliva you will be allergic to any doodle. If you are allergic to dander, a Bernedoodle with the appropriate coat type will likely work for you. Every person is different and we cannot guarantee someone’s allergy response to one of our dogs.
