I'm Thara R., the breeder behind Reinitz Family Bernedoodles located in Lubbock, TX. When looking for a dog for our family we did a lot of research. We wanted a hypoallergenic, medium energy addition to our family. Our Bernedoodle was a perfect fit & inspired us to begin responsibly breeding to share this amazing breed with others.
