Meet the breeder

I'm Kelly V., the breeder behind Halo BerneDo located in Greenville, SC. I began breeding in 2019 as a guardian home for another breeder and discovered that I really love raising puppies. Our puppies receive vet-recommended care, non-GMO food, early socialization, leash work, and basic-command training. Their parents have clear DNA health testing.

Q. & A. with Kelly

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I began breeding in 2019 as a guardian home for a Labradoodle with Doodles Making a Difference. After witnessing the beauty of two litters, I felt called to continue the legacy. We retired our Labradoodle and carefully searched for a Bernedoodle with ideal genetics and a calm, loving temperament to build our program.

  • What makes your program special?

    We only raise one litter per year, giving each puppy royal treatment. They’re bathed with organic products, trained to use a doggie doorbell, paddle board, and follow basic commands like sit, stay, and come. We also begin leash work early. Each pup is loved as if they’ll stay with us forever—because that’s how great companions begin.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include red, black, and black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Breeder-Reported Testing

Good level

Halo BerneDo reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Bernedoodles.

  • Hip Dysplasia

    Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.

  • Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)

    Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.

  • DNA Disease Panel, von Willebrand Disease I (vWD I)

    Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).

    We couldn't be happier with our Bernedoodle! Our experience with Halo Bernedo has been wonderful from the very beginning. Kelly is incredibly responsive, answered our questions quickly, and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Our puppy Chai is now a year old and is not only adorable but also incredibly intelligent and eager to learn. Potty training was surprisingly quick, and we're so impressed with how smart and bubbly she is. Her coat is also unbelievably soft and has maintained the gorgeous apricot color. We are absolutely in love with our fur-baby and couldn't be happier with our experience. We highly recommend this breeder to anyone looking for a beautiful, smart, and loving Bernedoodle! ~The Simmonds Family

Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
