Integrity and quality! The folks at HC are delightfully caring and honest compared to many in the…read moreBerneDoodle industry. No massive deposits six months in advance and absolutely no question of the breeding/heritage. Our micro mini, or tiny BerneDoodle is outgoing, playful and strong, and has all of those goofy moves that I see in my sister's 65 lb mini BerneDoodle. Ours is the smallest of her litter and might not even reach 20 lbs but many micro-minis grow larger. HC is a family business and everyone spends time with the pups so they're highly personable and confident. And very healthy. We were able to have them arrange a friend of theirs to fly our pup to us in San Jose so we met her in the airport. He was very sweet and took great care of her. We could not be more pleased by the entire experience!

Most amazing puppy ever! HC Bernedoodle, Jason, has the happiest, healthiest little pups! We were…read morelucky to get Beau (Helix) in April 2021 and this little boy is the smartest, sweetest little guy. So obedient and happy. He loves people and other dogs, a win win. Jason helped us get Beau from MO to NY with a nanny that flew him to JFK. It was the best experience. Beau is our life now, couldn't imagine my home without him. Thank you Jason and HC Bernedoodle!

After 11 years, yesterday I put down my best friend that I had gotten from My Perfect Pal. Although…read moreher life was cut short due to a few complications, believed to be from Cushings disease, My Dog, Timber had the most remarkable personality in and animal I have ever met. Never trained her but she was incredibly smart and I had hundreds of people in her lifetime tell me she should have been a show dog. This breeder is responsible, and clearly knows what they are doing. And after all the lifelong memories I had with Timber, I could not be more grateful for what your services had produced. Thank you for everything. We are heartbroken she is gone, but thank you so much from our family to yours.

He has really tightened up the obedience and ran through fetching and the basic bird work. Just 2 months made a huge difference to get him ready for his first season. The kennel is always clean, great care is given to them and can openly communicate for updates all the time during training with open and honest feedback. Not many out there better than Todd!

He went directly to the vet when I got him back the report was he lost over 11# mostly muscle , many cuts , including his paws , lots of hair loss and looked neglected, this dog had a perfect check up the day before he went to Dogpro I would never again recommend Todd to anyone ! To top all this off NO training had been done during his stay !

From the owner: This is Melissa and I would love to take  a minute to tell you about our family and the love we…read morehave for producing our amazing puppies..I was born loving all animals and I was even planning on being a vet at one point in my life. Needless to say life happened and I instead graduated with a B.S. in Animal Science and a Masters in Biology. After working as a biologist and in the education field for several years I decided I wanted to shift my focus more to my family and our passion for our puppies. I now get to be home with my little ones and enjoy the "dog life" with them:) I get to be the mommy, biologist, "vet" and animal lover I have always dreamed of every second of every day! I consider myself to be very blessed. We are a loud, hands on family that embraces every aspect of raising wonderful puppies! I spend lots of nights staying up with expectant mothers, cleaning, sanitizing, and vaccinating to ensure the best possible start for our puppies. I have an excellent care team, including my little sister, that dedicate their love and attention to each and every parent and baby. We are very grateful that our 5 children share our love for animals. The 3 youngest spend their time playing, cuddling and creating the greatest adventures with the puppies:) As a mama I'm so happy that my older 2 girls are here at 8am to help get the puppies off to a great start for their day and attend to all of their needs with love xoxoxo

This is a nice shelter. The people are very friendly and helpful. It is out of their home, and they…read morehave a huge yard for the dogs to play in (which is nice to see in contrast to the city shelters)..but you're paying for it. Their adoption fees are the most expensive ones I have found. It was $250 to adopt our puppy and $225 to adopt the 1 year old. Now here is my complaint and thus why I can not give them full stars: When we were there, we bought both a harness and a leash for both dogs. Each piece was about $16 (so doing math you're looking at $32 for the set, per dog). The nice lady who helped us, Karen, tightened the harnesses for us and off we went. When we were at PetSmart getting supplies, my husband set the 1 year old dog down, fully harnessed and leashed, so I could take her and he could get our toddler out of the car seat. In that split second, the dog wiggled out of her harness and was gone, never to be seen again. Ok, I understand that they won't give us our money back, and I never even asked (though their contract says nothing about it). That is not my complaint (though I struggle with not being extremely irritated at the situation in general lol). No matter how innocent it was, it was still our fault she's gone, even if it was the shelter that tightened her harness for us. So we can say bye to the $225 we spent. The harness/leash however was used once, so I assume they would return that at least. It's not like they can't resale it, it's brand new!! WRONG!! They will not return them! So, lesson for you to learn from my mistake: If you have the money to adopt a dog from here, make sure you tighten the harness yourself, that way all of the blame is on you and will give you peace of mind there. Don't EVER set the dog down fully harnessed and leashed. For that matter, you may as well not buy them since they are apparently pointless. Lol. But if you do, make sure it's one you like bc you will have it forever, even if you don't have the dog anymore. Better yet, save yourself the hassle and buy your harness and leash from PetSmart or Walmart. At least there you can return it. :)
