Stokeshire Pairing Profile
“George” × “Stella” — Interactive Summary
A standard-size Bernedoodle-leaning pairing with Aussie influence through Stella, a very clean health outlook, 50/50 furnished coat expectation, black pigment throughout, and merle possibility through George.
Health
Included Conditions (19)
CMR1, CDDY/IVDD, CEA, CMO, Day Blindness, DM, GM2, Hereditary Ataxia, Early-Onset Cataracts, HUU, JEB, MDR1, NEWS, NCL6, NCL8, Skeletal Dwarfism, PCD, PRA-prcd, and vWD1.
Meaning: no affected puppies and no carriers are predicted for the listed Embark-tested variants from this match.
Inbreeding & Diversity
Context: this pairing stays moderate and moves lower than George’s individual COI, while preserving strong type, health, and trait predictability.
Coat Traits (Interactive)
Furnishings (RSPO2) ~50% furnished / 50% unfurnished
| Sire ↓ / Dam → | F | I |
|---|---|---|
| I | F/I | I/I |
| I | F/I | I/I |
Genotype assumption: one parent is F/I and the other is I/I, producing the 50/50 furnished split you noted.
White Markings Bernese-style white possible
Stella is Ssp (parti carrier). George does not carry parti, but he does have white on the chest, face, and feet in a very Bernese-style pattern.
What that means: this pairing is not expected to produce true parti puppies, but attractive chest white, blazes, socks, and other classic Bernese-style white markings are very possible.
Color Genetics (Interactive)
Predicted Base Phenotypes 50/50 split
Important: both parents are ky/ky and at/at, so patterning is very clean and predictable at the base level.
E Locus (Stella Ee × George ee) 50% Ee / 50% ee
| Sire ↓ / Dam → | E | e |
|---|---|---|
| e | E/e | e/e |
| e | E/e | e/e |
Outcome: about half the litter can express the black tan-point base, while the other half is expected to be recessive red.
Merle (George Mm × Stella mm) ~50% merle / 50% non-merle
| Sire ↓ / Dam → | m | m |
|---|---|---|
| M | M/m | M/m |
| m | m/m | m/m |
Visual note: merle can be inherited by about half the litter, but it may be masked on recessive red puppies. In practice, some pups may genetically carry merle without visibly showing a classic merle pattern.
B Locus & Pigment 50% BB / 50% Bb • all black pigment
George is Bb and Stella is BB. That gives a 50/50 split between BB and Bb.
Outcome: no brown-based puppies are expected from this pairing. All pups should retain black pigment at the nose, eye rims, and base coat level.
Overview
- Health: all-clear across 19 Embark-tested conditions.
- Diversity: expected eCOI is about 7%.
- Coat: about 50% furnished and 50% unfurnished/open coat.
- Color: about 50% black tan-point/tri base and 50% recessive red.
- Merle: about 50% may inherit merle from George.
- White: classic Bernese-style white markings are possible; true parti is not expected.
Expected Adult Weight
This is expected to be a standard-size litter. Individual pups may finish above or below the midpoint depending on structure, sex, and growth pattern.
