Valley Bernedoodles is a small, family-owned, bernedoodle breeder in Lyman, Wyoming. Jacob and Anne Harmon quickly fell in love with Maggie, their bernedoodle dog, and decided to try breeding her in 2021. They had such a fun time, and loved the happiness their dogs brought to the families that received them so they decided to turn it into an official business. Valley Bernedoodles has the mission of creating some of the best family dogs. In order to do this, we carefully select dogs and genetics and invest a lot into setting up our litters for success during the brief time we have with them.
Jacob is our business manager, web developer, and marketer. He also loves the dogs and helps with them. He loves helping families find a dog that fits them.
Anne is our resident dog expert. She's a dog whisperer and knows exactly how to train and take care of them. She spends a lot of time researching what our dogs need.
Felicity is a big helper when it comes to taking care of the puppies. She likes to help weigh them and make sure that they're growing. She also loves showing them off to others.
Theo loves cuddling the puppies and being a big helper. He is really gentle with them and makes sure they know they're loved.
We work hard to create the very best dogs that we can. Here are some of the reasons to choose Valley Bernedoodles:
Before breeding our puppies, we genetic test both the dam and sire to make sure our puppies won’t have any genetic diseases. We also confirm that our puppies are indeed fully Bernese Mountain Dog and poodle.
We perform Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) from days 3-16 of a puppies life. ENS has been shown to improve the dog's stress tolerance, heart, resistance to disease, and more.
As our puppies grow, we expose them to new experiences, environments, sounds and textures. This includes riding in a car, grass, carpet, stairs, doorbells, knocking, walking on a leash and more.
We have small children at home. Thanks to this, our puppies are exposed to small children at a young age. They are handled by children and are taught what's okay and what isn't when it comes to kids.
We do basic kennel training before they go home with you. They won't have spent a lot of time in a kennel, but they will be familiar with them, and have spent at least some time in a kennel alone.
Your dog will have a head start on basic training commands such as "sit," "stay," "lay down," and "come."
They'll already have been seen by a vet, and will have their first round of vaccinations done before they go home with you. They will be de-wormed. We'll send them home with medical records and growth charts.
Puppies come with a gallon zip-lock bag full of the high quality food we've been giving them, a plush toy that has the scent of their mom and litter, copies of the pictures we've taken from birth till the time they leave.
