Hey, something like 10 dogs walk past my home every day and I swear something like 6 of 10 are Bernedoodles. Unscientific, I know but my sister got one too. So, it seems too frequent to be a coincidence.
Does anyone here know why this breed is so popular in the last few years?
My guess: since I live in a conservative place (in the USA) someone famous got one, or said they're great dogs for "patriots" to own. (/smh)
But thanks for any ideas. I searched around but all I got were those BS filled, "What you should know about the Bernedoodle" pages, saying dumb stuff like, "Bernedoodles have quickly gained popularity due to their cuddly nature and lovable personalities". I bet there's something else going on here.
It’s often a local phenomenon due to breeders in the area and a small viral effect. People see others with a dog breed they like and want the same. In my area it’s huskies, in my previous home town it is German shepherd’s because there is a trainer specific for that breed. Aussies are a hit everywhere though.
I only ever had dogs from shelters and many people ask what breed that is and then are a bit sad to learn they cannot have the same one because they are just random.
