At PDX Bernedoodles, the health and well-being of our dogs is our top priority. All of our dogs are fed a high-quality, nutrient-rich diet, supplemented with essential vitamins to support their immune system and overall vitality. They receive regular veterinary care throughout the year, including wellness checks and preventative screenings, to ensure they remain strong, healthy, and happy.
We are committed to ethical breeding practices and limit our program to one litter per female per year. When a dam enters her heat cycle, we closely monitor her progesterone levels through Newberg Veterinary Hospital to determine the optimal timing for breeding.
When the time is right, we use side-by-side insemination, which not only reduces physical stress for the female but also allows us to safely pair her with a much smaller male — a decision made for both comfort and practicality.
As soon as pregnancy is confirmed, we begin enhanced prenatal care, including supplementation with high-quality fish oil and prenatal vitamins. At the one-month mark, we perform an ultrasound to confirm pregnancy. During the second month, we transition the expectant mom to a high-protein, well-balanced diet to support fetal development and maintain her health.
Canine gestation lasts approximately 63 days. One week before the expected due date, we take the dam for a radiograph (x-ray) to get an accurate puppy count and prepare for a smooth delivery.

Approximately two weeks before the expected due date, we introduce the expectant mother to her designated whelping area, allowing her time to acclimate and begin nesting naturally by arranging blankets and creating a comfortable space. During the final week of pregnancy, we begin daily temperature monitoring, as a noticeable drop often signals the onset of labor.
Once active labor begins, we ensure the environment is calm, quiet, and stress-free. While we are fully prepared to assist if necessary, we prioritize letting the mother take the lead in her delivery process. In the event of any complications, our trusted veterinarian is always on call and ready to assist.
Following the birth, we closely monitor each puppy’s weight and nursing behavior to confirm healthy growth and development. For the first two weeks postpartum, I sleep in the same room as the mother and her litter to provide round-the-clock support and ensure the puppies are safe, warm, and thriving.
During this critical period, the mother is fed a high-fat, high-protein diet and continues with a regimen of prenatal and postnatal supplements, including zinc complex and liver and kidney support, to promote optimal milk production and recovery.
Puppy Life

Puppy Life
Two weeks before the puppies are born, we transition the mother and her whelping box into our main living area. This allows the puppies to gradually acclimate to the sounds and rhythms of everyday family life while still remaining in the safe and secure environment of their whelping box for the first two weeks after birth.

Two weeks before the puppies are born, we transition the mother and her whelping box into our main living area. This allows the puppies to gradually acclimate to the sounds and rhythms of everyday family life while still remaining in the safe and secure environment of their whelping box for the first two weeks after birth.
We continue to monitor each puppy’s weight daily, supplementing with puppy formula if needed to ensure every pup is thriving. During this early stage, the puppies are gently handled multiple times a day by our immediate family, promoting early socialization. We delay outside visitors to minimize exposure to outside germs and to protect their developing immune systems. Once their immunity strengthens, we welcome waiting families to visit and meet the puppies in person to begin the selection process.
Potty training begins around three weeks of age, along with early introduction to sleeping through the night. At approximately four weeks, we begin transitioning the puppies to solid food, starting with puppy formula in shallow bowls, followed by a blended mush (puppy food mixed with formula), and eventually dry kibble once their teeth have come in.
The puppies have access to a large indoor playpen and a spacious outdoor deck, giving them ample room to run, explore, and play. (We hold off on allowing access to grassy areas until they’ve received their first vaccinations.) Cleanliness is a top priority — we maintain a very clean environment in all puppy areas to reduce any risk of illness or infection.
Going Home

Puppy Life
Before the puppies transition to their forever homes, they undergo two veterinary visits and receive all age-appropriate vaccinations by eight weeks of age. By this time, each puppy is healthy, well-socialized, and accustomed to the everyday sounds and activities of a household.

Before the puppies transition to their forever homes, they undergo two veterinary visits and receive all age-appropriate vaccinations by eight weeks of age. By this time, each puppy is healthy, well-socialized, and accustomed to the everyday sounds and activities of a household.
We love and care for our puppies as if they were our own, and we never compromise on their health, well-being, or early development. We strongly encourage early connection between families and their puppies, and we are always happy to welcome visits to foster these important bonds.
Prior to the puppies’ departure, we conduct a photoshoot and share these special moments with the families. Each puppy goes home with a thoughtfully prepared care package and a blanket scented with their mother’s scent to provide comfort during the early transition period.
We remain available for ongoing support and questions, and we offer exclusive dog sitting services for our puppies to ensure continued care and peace of mind for our families.
