Stokeshire Pairing Profile
“Bowser” × “Jada” — Stokeshire Pairing Summary
This proposed pairing combines a small Poodle-forward sire with a Poodle-dominant, merle-carrying dam to create a highly diverse doodle cross with strong coat potential, broad color range, and low projected inbreeding. Because this is part of a possible dual-sire plan, Bowser’s unique color and spotting genetics add an especially interesting layer to the litter outlook.
Breed Composition
- 71.7% Poodle overall
- 21.7% Bernese Mountain Dog
- 6.7% Golden Retriever
This pairing is strongly Poodle-backed, with a smaller Bernese contribution and a light Golden Retriever influence through Jada. In practical terms, that points toward a more refined doodle structure, strong coat potential, and a generally lower-shed direction than a heavier Bernese-based cross.
Health Panel
Embark predicts this pairing to be clear across 15 reported conditions in the Pair Predictor. Two additional conditions are listed as no prediction available; breed relevant, so those should be treated as areas to note rather than automatically describe as clear.
Included clear conditions
CDDY/IVDD, CMS, DM, Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa, GM2 Gangliosidosis, GR-PRA1, GR-PRA2, ICH1, Muscular Dystrophy, NEWS, NCL5, Osteochondrodysplasia / Skeletal Dwarfism, Osteogenesis Imperfecta, PRA-prcd, and vWD Type I.
Breed-relevant no-prediction conditions
Ichthyosis (ICH2) and Retina Dysplasia / Optic Nerve Hypoplasia were listed by Embark as no predictions available; breed relevant.
Genetic Diversity
The projected eCOI for this pairing is 3%, which is lower than Bowser’s individual COI and slightly below Jada’s general range. That is a favorable diversity outcome and suggests this match moves the line in a healthy direction from an inbreeding standpoint.
Base Color Genetics
- 19% solid black with black pigment
- 19% solid brown with brown pigment
- 19% black tan point with black pigment
- 19% brown tan point with brown pigment
- 13% recessive red with black pigment
- 13% recessive red with brown pigment
This is a much broader palette than the Mack pairing. Because Bowser contributes b and both parents carry e, the litter can produce both black-based and brown-based puppies, including tan point and recessive red outcomes.

Merle & Parti Notes
Merle outlook
Because Jada carries merle (M*m) and Bowser is non-merle (mm), approximately 50% of the litter may inherit merle, visible on black-based and brown-based puppies (blue merle, chocolate merle, merle phantom). Bowser being mm means there is no double-merle risk in this pairing. Since Embark’s automatic color prediction does not include merle, this modifier must be layered manually over the base colors above.
Cryptic merle caution: merle is not visible on recessive red (ee) coats. Roughly 1 in 8 puppies (~12.5%) could be a red/cream puppy carrying hidden merle. Any ee puppy from this litter should be Embark-tested for merle before breeding placement.
Parti / spotting outlook
Both parents test Ssp on the S locus, so parti is a defined outcome, not just a carrier note. Expected split: ~25% parti (spsp) with 50%+ white patterning, ~50% parti carriers (Ssp) that may show abstract or tuxedo-style white, and ~25% solid (SS). Parti overlays every base color in this litter — black parti, chocolate parti, parti phantom, red/cream parti, and merle parti are all on the table.
Because coat modifiers like merle and white spotting are not fully represented in Embark’s main coat predictor, visible outcomes can be more complex than the base-locus percentages alone. White expression on Ssp puppies ranges from none to noticeable chest/face/paw white.
Coat Direction
- Strong Poodle influence suggests coats should trend doodle/fleece rather than Bernese-heavy
- Likely moderate to higher grooming needs depending on furnishing and texture inheritance
- This pairing may produce especially marketable variety because of the wider color and pattern range
From a program standpoint, Bowser × Jada offers more visual diversity than Mack × Jada. It is especially interesting for a dual-sire concept because it creates a noticeably different color lane while still holding strong diversity metrics.
Overall Summary
- Strong health outlook with 15 clear predicted conditions
- Low projected inbreeding at 3%
- Poodle-forward composition with Bernese and Golden influence
- Broadest color range of the two pairings
- Black, brown, tan point, and recessive red bases — with ~50% merle overlay and ~25% true parti expression possible across all of them
If Mack × Jada gives you a more classic black / phantom lane, Bowser × Jada is the more visually expansive lane—bringing brown pigment, recessive red potential, merle overlay, and a confirmed ~25% parti rate into play.

“Mack” × “Jada” — Stokeshire Pairing Summary
This pairing combines a Bernese-forward sire with a Poodle-dominant dam to produce a balanced doodle cross with strong coat potential, excellent genetic health outcomes, and diverse breed influence.
Breed Composition
- 42.8% Bernese Mountain Dog
- 37.7% Poodle (Standard + Small)
- 12.9% Australian Shepherd
- 6.7% Golden Retriever
The resulting litter is expected to be a Bernese-leaning doodle cross with strong Poodle influence for coat structure, along with moderate Australian Shepherd and Golden Retriever contributions.
Health Panel
All puppies are expected to inherit clear status for the Embark genetic health conditions tested, meaning no affected or carrier puppies are predicted from this pairing.
Genetic Diversity
A lower coefficient of inbreeding is associated with improved genetic diversity and potentially longer lifespan. This pairing moves COI significantly downward relative to the sire’s genetic profile.
Color Genetics
- 50% Solid Black
- 50% Black Tan Point
- 100% Black Pigment
- 0% Dilute
Merle Modifier
Jada carries one copy of the merle allele (Mm*). Because Mack is non-merle, approximately half of the litter may inherit merle patterning.
Parti Carrier Status
Jada carries the spotting allele (Ssp), meaning some puppies may inherit carrier status for parti patterning. This does not necessarily produce visible parti expression.
Expected Coat
- Poodle genetics strongly influence coat structure
- Likely fleece or wavy coats
- Moderate grooming needs
Overall Summary
- Excellent health outlook
- Very low expected inbreeding
- Balanced Bernese-Poodle structure
- Possible merle expression
- Black-based pigment

Items the report still notes worth being aware of
-
Ichthyosis (ICH2)
Listed as no prediction available; breed relevant.
-
Retina Dysplasia and/or Optic Nerve Hypoplasia
Listed as no prediction available; breed relevant.
These were listed on the report as breed relevant but without a pairing prediction result. That does not mean there is a known problem — only that the predictor did not return a clear outcome for those items.
Genetic Diversity (COI)
COI is a genetic estimate of relatedness. In general, a lower COI supports stronger diversity. This pairing remains comfortably low and trends in a healthy direction.
Note: COI is one of several factors considered alongside health testing, temperament, and structure.
