The Complete Guide to Bernedoodle Blue Eyes

Bernedoodles with blue eyes are a rare and unique breed, and understanding their characteristics is essential for potential owners.

Blue eyes in Bernedoodles are often the result of a genetic dilution of the pigment, which can be caused by the interaction of the Poodle and Bernese Mountain Dog genes.

A Bernedoodle's eye color can be influenced by the Poodle's gene that codes for the production of the pigment, which is responsible for the brown or black color of the eyes.

Bernedoodles with blue eyes can have a lighter coat color, often a combination of white, black, and tan.

Mini Bernedoodle size can vary greatly due to differences in the parents and the litter. Our largest male poodle used for breeding is 30 pounds, while our largest female Bernese Mountain Dog used for breeding is 80 pounds.

The size of your Mini Bernedoodle puppy will depend on several factors, including how many puppies were in the litter. If your puppy was the runt in the litter, it may be smaller than its siblings.

The size of puppies from previous litters with the same parents can also give you an idea of what to expect. If those puppies were generally larger or smaller than average, your puppy may follow suit.

How many generations removed your puppy is from a Standard Bernese Mountain Dog can also impact its size. The more generations removed, the smaller your puppy is likely to be.

Here are some factors to consider when predicting your Mini Bernedoodle's size:

Heterochromia, the unique eye color variation, is often a cosmetic feature with no health concerns. However, if a dog develops heterochromia later in life, it's a good idea to consult a veterinarian to rule out any underlying health issues.

In some cases, a dog with heterochromia may have eye issues, especially if they have blue eyes or the double merle gene. This is because blue eyes and the double merle gene can be associated with eye problems.

Most dogs with genetic heterochromia are perfectly healthy, but it's still important to monitor their eyesight. If you get a dog with heterochromia or blue eyes, make sure to follow up with a vet to evaluate their eyesight.

Dogs with heterochromia can be perfectly healthy, sporting a unique and eye-catching look.

Bernedoodles can flaunt a wide array of different colors and patterns, including tri-colored, merle, parti, sable, phantom, and solid colors like jet black, chocolate, or white.

Their beautiful, fluffy coats are a result of inheriting traits from both the Bernese Mountain Dog and the Poodle's lineage.

Many Bernedoodle colors and patterns can be difficult to decide on, but learning about their heritage can help.

Their heritage is a combination of the Bernese Mountain Dog's side of the family, which includes common colors like black, white, and red, and the Poodle's side, which includes colors like black, white, and gray.

There are countless other colors and patterns that Bernedoodle puppies can come in, depending on their genetics and dominant and recessive genes.
