I'm Jonathan M., the breeder behind North Mountain Doodles located in Factoryville, PA. Our puppies are raised with love alongside our seven young children, and we strive to help each one grow up with confidence so they are ready to go home to a loving home. We pride ourselves in the amount of time we spend with our puppies with temperament being our number one consideration.
Q. & A. with Jonathan
Why did you start breeding?
I grew up raising German Shepard’s. I have such fond memories of raising puppies as soon as we started having children I wanted them to experience that. My wife is a life long dog lover, so it didn’t take long to convince her. We have never turned back!
What makes your program special?
I think what definitely sets us apart is the level of one on one care we are able to give to each individual puppy. Because of our unique situation of being a work from home, homeschooling family, all nine of us are always home!!! Because of that, our puppies are literally ALWAYS with people! From the moment they open their eyes they are being handled nonstop.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our Bernedoodle puppies include tiny, mini, medium, and standard sizes. Aussiedoodle puppies include toy, mini, and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Bernedoodle puppies include sable, black and white, tri-color, phantom, and merle. Aussiedoodle puppies include blue merle, red merle, black and white, black tri-color, red phantom, and red tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

Tucker is a bundle of energy! He is a fun loving guy, and enjoys quad rides and following the kids around the farm. He is also a huge help with our livestock, which he enjoys this job immensely. We have a small program, so Tucker is our only Aussiedoodle Dad, so all of the pictures of our former aussiedoodle puppies are Tucker's. He is a Harlequin Blue Merle with bright blue eyes, so to say he is a show stopper would be an understatement! This is where our Blue Eyed Pups come from.

Kelly and John at North Mountain Doodles were so great to work with. From initial deposit to pick up day it felt like we were in it together. Kelly’s weekly “pupdates” were the perfect way to stay informed and prepare to welcome the newest addition to our family. We would definitely recommend North Mountain Doodles based on our experience!

North Mountain Doodles was exceptional. Kept me informed of my options and even worked with me when I had a glitch on pickup day. Bailey has been such a wonderful addition to my family and while my Bouvier took a bit to warm up to her, she kept trying and now two weeks later, they sleep together and she takes her cues from him on how to act and what she is supposed to do in training, She is so smart and learning quickly. Could not ask for anymore.

Excellent breeder to work with! Excellent communication! Extremely knowledgeable. Jonathan and Kelly took the time to answer any and all questions that I had. It seems like they really enjoy raising these puppies. I love my bernedoodle. He has been so sweet, easily trainable and seems ready for anything all the time. Couldn't be happier!
