WELCOME TO
Sheepadoodles & Bernedoodles
"Bred with LOVE 2 LOVE"-since 1998
-The BRIARWOOD MISSION-
"How It All Began"
We're a family of 14 ordinary people(2 parents / 12 children), shaped by God through joys and hardships that have prepared us for an extraordinary calling. We believe the Bible is Gods directions for how to live, so in the book of Proverbs chapter 12 verse 10 God says, “A righteous man cares for the welfare of his animals…” we receive this as mandate in how we care for our dogs and pups. Our breeding program was established in 1998, shortly after our marriage, with an emphasis in our beloved Dobermann Pincher’s. As our family grew and was transformed by the adoption of several children, some of which we later discovered suffered from severe developmental challenges, we began to see the value and impact our dogs could have in their lives.
When we learned of the Sheepadoodles and Bernedoodles we were fascinated with the possibilities of a loyal, family friendly dog and began to reshape our program to produce dogs with a temperament better suited to meet the needs of our children. The unexpected by-product has been families with similar challenges have found our pups to be just as impactful in their lives. JB writes, “Cosmo has been absolutely amazing !! Temperament is wonderful and training him was a breeze...smartest dog I've ever had…So many stories I could share about how Cosmo has brought so much joy to so many people that I've met who's either very ill or handicapped.”

We are continuously working to perfect our breeding lines, and take each day, one at a time, to improve who we are, and what we do, because in the end it’s not the business, but the families we touch beyond our farm, in all the homes across the country, that are making a difference, and spreading that spark of love! Welcome again to BRIARWOOD where are puppies are bred with love 2 love. |
