Mini Saint Berdoodle

What Is A Mini Saint Berdoodle?

A Mini Saint Berdoodle is a cross between a Miniature Poodle and a Saint Bernard. They are the smallest size of Saint Berdoodle. As there is a significant size difference between the Miniature Poodle and Saint Bernard, the Saint Bernard needs to be the female and carry the puppies for the first generation litter (F1 Mini Saint Berdoodles).

Often the Saint Berdoodles from a first generation litter are not small enough which is why many breeders take the runt of the initial litter and keep breeding them together until they consistently get the miniature size. To speed up this process, breeders may introduce another smaller dog into the lineage such as a Cocker Spaniel to help miniaturize the Saint Bernard. Therefore, not all Mini Saint Berdoodles are 50% Saint Bernard and 50% Miniature Poodle but in reality may involve three breeds.
