Question 1

How big will my bernedoodle get?

Accepted Answer

Standard bernedoodles typically reach 50–90 lbs. Medium bernedoodles reach 25–50 lbs, and minis reach 10–25 lbs. Adult size depends heavily on the Poodle parent's size and whether the Bernese Mountain Dog parent was on the smaller or larger end.

Question 2

When do bernedoodles stop growing?

Accepted Answer

Standard bernedoodles typically reach full height by 12–14 months and full weight by 18–24 months. Mini and medium bernedoodles often finish growing a few months earlier.

Question 3

How accurate is this bernedoodle size predictor?

Accepted Answer

This tool uses large-breed growth curves and gives an estimate with a ±13% range. It is most accurate between 8 and 24 weeks. Predictions before 8 weeks or after 6 months have wider variance. Parent weights are a stronger predictor than age and current weight alone.

Question 4

What is a good weight for a bernedoodle puppy at 8 weeks?

Accepted Answer

A standard bernedoodle puppy at 8 weeks typically weighs 8–15 lbs. Mini bernedoodle puppies at 8 weeks are usually 3–6 lbs. Weight varies widely between litters.
