Key Dates
Lineage & Genetics
Full parent DNA panels, pairing health predictions, and color and coat genetics for this litter are detailed on the litter page. Both parents are Embark-tested and clear on all breed-relevant conditions screened, including MDR1 drug sensitivity. Merle in this litter traces to the Miniature American Shepherd line only; the Poodle and Bernese contributions carry no merle, so merle puppies are single-merle. Each family also receives complete DNA results on their individual puppy at go-home.

* A note on percentages. Breed percentages reflect expected averages for this pairing. During natural genetic recombination, roughly half of each parent's genes are not passed to any individual puppy, so actual composition varies from one puppy to the next. These figures are estimates rather than guarantees. Individual DNA testing confirms each puppy's results.
Temperament Assessment
Mhairi was evaluated using the Volhard Puppy Aptitude Test at approximately 6 to 7 weeks of age. Scores are translated into the Stokeshire 12-trait temperament framework to help families understand his natural disposition and identify the best home match. Dog Friendliness is assessed separately, through controlled introductions outside the formal evaluation.
About Mhairi
Mhairi carries a blue merle tri coat, a silvery marbled pattern over a black base with copper and white trim. He wears a yellow collar for identification.
Mhairi has shown a confident, curious disposition. He comes forward to people, follows closely, and meets new sights and sounds with interest rather than caution, moving toward them to investigate.
He accepts handling with a balanced, biddable nature, and his energy reads as moderate, engaged and inquisitive with the ability to settle. A profile like his tends to fit families who want an interactive, people-focused companion.
Ideal Home for Mhairi
Mhairi's early profile suggests a confident, curious puppy who is closely people-oriented and steady in new environments. A puppy like him tends to suit families who want an engaged, interactive companion and enjoy an inquisitive personality.
Coat & Size
What Is an Australian Mountain Doodle?
The Australian Mountain Doodle blends three breeds: the Miniature American Shepherd, the Poodle, and the Bernese Mountain Dog. The cross is designed to unite the herding intelligence and striking markings of the Miniature American Shepherd, the lower-shedding furnished coat and quick trainability associated with the Poodle, and the steady, devoted presence of the Bernese Mountain Dog.
In this litter, a purebred Miniature American Shepherd dam paired with a Bernedoodle sire produces a first-generation Australian Mountain Doodle with full facial furnishings and a soft, wavy coat. Families choose the Australian Mountain Doodle for its combination of an engaged, people-oriented temperament and a coat that, while furnished, retains the character of its herding heritage.
At a projected 18 to 35 pounds, these puppies land in the miniature-to-small range, sized for modern family life: sturdy enough for hiking and outdoor adventure, manageable enough for travel and town living.
Next Steps
Mhairi's temperament profile is based on early breeder observations and the Volhard Puppy Aptitude Test conducted at approximately 6 to 7 weeks of age, translated into the Stokeshire 12-trait framework. These reflect early natural responses and are intended to inform family matching. They are not guarantees of future behavior, trainability, or disposition.
Each puppy is an individual shaped by genetics, environment, and training. Stokeshire Designer Doodles does not guarantee temperament, adult size or weight, coat characteristics, or shedding levels. The Australian Mountain Doodle is a furnished cross; as a first-generation pairing that includes a Miniature American Shepherd parent, shedding varies by individual. No dog is represented as non-shedding or hypoallergenic, and individual allergen responses vary.
Families are encouraged to invest in ongoing positive-reinforcement training, socialization, and veterinary care to support his development. By selecting a Stokeshire puppy, you acknowledge and accept these terms.
