Best Decision

Bringing Pearl into our family, and using Grand Style, is one of the best decisions we have made! Pearl brings so much joy—she is the heartbeat of our home. My husband and I never considered ourselves to be “dog people” and we were both very inexperienced. Mary was extremely patient with me during all our early phone conversations. We spoke for hours and she answered every single question. She covered everything from how she socializes the puppies to what my future grooming expectations would entail. Her honesty was so appreciated!

After the litter was born, Mary kept me updated on a weekly basis. She would send photos and videos of the pups, and then specifically of the two females so that we could compare their sizes and personalities. It was a hard choice because the females were both ADORABLE! Mary gave me the opportunity to meet the females, and Pearl stole my heart.

We had a glowing report at her first vet visit. The entire staff seemed to come out to comment on how cute she was! The vet asked for a stool sample, and she assured me it was common for the stool to have parasites or abnormalities. But not for Pearl—it came back negative for everything! Each vet visit throughout the months provided more positive feedback: “she’s such a happy, healthy puppy”, “her temperament is so lovely”, “she’s the cutest mini Bernedoodle we have seen”. (Yes, I’m a proud puppy owner 😊) Pearl is currently 9 months old and 32 pounds, right on track with 40ish pounds that Mary predicted. (Pearl was one of the bigger pups in the litter.)

We regularly receive compliments on her demeanor and beauty, everyone from her groomer to strangers on a walk. After her first training session, the dog trainer said, “Oh, Pearl will be so easy to train. She is sweet, smart, and food motivated. Excellent temperament. You got lucky with this one!”

I don’t believe it’s luck. I believe Grand Style played a huge part! We will be forever thankful.
