About Doodles

Australian Mountain Doodle

The Australian Mountain Doodle is the perfect blend between an easy going, adventurous, and allergy friendly dog. Our goal for our Australian Mountain Doodles is to create a lower energy Aussiedoodle while improving the lifespan of the Bernedoodle side, thus enhancing the main trait that the other breed lacks. 

 

Can't decide between the Aussiedoodle or Bernedoodle? Consider the Australian Mountain 

Doodle where you get the qualities of the Aussiedoodle and Bernedoodle that we love all in 

one package! You heard it here first! We were one of the original breeders in Canada to

intentionally produce this unique cross! 

 

Our goal was to create the perfect family dog that not only had a longer lifespan, but also 

had an energy level that would be ideal for the average household. We wanted the smarts, 

willingness to please, athletic Australian Shepherd heritage to round out and compliment the

easy going, gentle nature and lovable Bernese Mountain Dog that everyone adores. 

Combined with the stellar temperament, loyalty and coat traits derived from the Poodle we

knew this would be one extraordinary cross! 

 

Over the course of a couple years we then sought out the perfect pairing to produce our 

first F1 generation Australian Mountain Doodle litter in 2018. Australian Mountain Doodles 

have since become increasingly popular amongst other breeders, and for good reason. We 

see our original description of our Australian Mountain Doodles popping up on new sites 

often, it's incredible to see how far this breed has come since our first litter was announced! 

We have had great success with our Australian Mountain Doodle lines so far, with many 

families coming back for their 2nd, 3rd, and even 4th puppies from us! ​

Early Neurological Stimulation for puppies and why it's important:

Researchers have noted that new born pups are immature and under-developed canines that are sensitive to a restricted class of stimuli which includes thermal and tactile stimulation, motion and locomotion. Dr. Battaglia, discusses and demonstrates how to use the five stimulating exercises that give each pup an advantage.
