Are We Ready for Parenthood? 4 days dog sitting a Bernedoodle

We spend 4 days dog sitting Goose, a lovable Bernedoodle, and test our parenting skills. From cuddles to chaos, it’s a heartwarming experience that leaves us wondering if we’re ready to be dog parents.

Who are we?
We are Adam (North American) and Bernardo (Brazilian) and we are husbands whose paths crossed back in 2016, when we both still lived in Brazil. Since the very beginning, we shared a common passion for travel and nature, which has only grown over the years and led us to this unexpected journey on KZbin, which has allowed us to connect with an amazing community that we’re beyond grateful for. “Go out and make memories” is our motto of living and a constant reminder for us that true happiness doesn’t come from the material wealth we accumulate, but from the memories we create and share with our loved ones throughout our existence. We invite you to join us in our crazy journey in life and hopefully we can inspire you to go out and make some memories on your own. Welcome aboard!

Such a big dog is also very smart! You both are good dads! Thank you very much for your sharing! 👍🥰🙏

Thanks so much! He's incredibly smart - when dog walking, a woman from a restaurant came out to give him bacon and he remembers the exact spot every time we walk him.

Pets (dogs, cats, or whatever), just complete us. Yes, they’re somewhat costly, but so are we, but so worth it! YOU PASSED ❤️ Loved the video of all three of you.

[@Stepsof2Foreigners]

Yes, they are pretty costly. That French Bulldog I showed, she has been super expensive for the owner. Glad that you enjoyed this video. Thanks for being here!

Life is not life without animals. Dogs or cats, it doesn’t matter, nothing feels as amazing as the never ending love from a pet

[@tigergreg8]

I totally agree. I can’t have animals where I live, but I dog and cat sit for friends, I love it. I look forward to it like a vacation.

[@Stepsof2Foreigners]

I can agree with that. We have always wanted a pet and when we were in Panama and kind of adopted 'Peanut' we knew and felt the never ending love from him. Thanks so much for being here!

[@sisking2173]

I love this, they are so much work, but the love and joy they give us is so unconditional. I have severe anxiety and PTSD, and depression so I have a therapy dog. I love her so much, her name is Willow.

[@sydney.564]

The great thing about dogs is how each one has such a unique personality, so there will always be a certain dog that is perfect for certain people and their lifestyles

[@moya-btahiti895]

It's good to see both of you together on video. ❤

[@terrylgeorge]

They fill up your day with even more love. Lovely to see you guys so happy with a temporary fur baby. You’ll be great daddies 😉💪🏻

[@Stepsof2Foreigners]

Thanks Terry! We can't wait to be daddies - we see it coming very soon :)

Muito obrigado Bernardo por ter voltado

Hello guys, after the second year of being married to my husband, we adopted a small bichon frise mix. He changed our lives. he is part of the family now and does everything with us. It has been a big change and a bigger responsibility. He even sleeps with us and when we want to have intimacy, he goes under the bed. LOL He is also my licking clock every morning to go to work. I feed him and take him out for his business before I leave for work. If I run out of time, my husband will do all that. Benji (the dog) is excellent. We love him so much. He likes treats and he eats ALMOST A LITTLE BIT OF EVERYTHING, EXCEPT FOR THOSE FOODS THAT THE VET FORBIDDEN HIM TO HAVE SUCH AS CHOCOLATE, GARLIC, ONIONS, SOME CITRICS, AND MANY OTHERS. ONE THING THAT I SOMEWHAT REGRET IS HAVING INVITED HIM TO SLEEP ON THE BED. HE IS ONLY 15 LB, AND HE BASICALLY TOOK THE BED FOR HIMSELF. Now, these are the things that it is difficult to do with Benji, like traveling (they don't allow him in the cabin on a plane) Some hotels, do not allow dogs, and those which do charge you extra. Benji is well-behaved with children. He is playful, funny, and so smart. His health insurance is somewhat expensive and needs self care once a month. (I mean bath, nail trimming, haircut) I think your dog is amazingly beautiful, and dogs guys just love you for ever. But it is a big responsibility. Have fun being a dog dad. I do very much! Kind regards, Daniel

[@robertcrundwell2782]

Hello Guys.. It is Bob, formally from Leesburg. You being together in a new video brought great happiness to my soul. I couldn't help but smile the whole video. I have never seen a Bernese/Poodle designer breed before. Very impressed with him. I would very much like to have a companion dog, but the Parkinson's is getting worse, and am afraid of being tripped. In the 9 months of living in Ohio, other than a couple of family members, I have had one visitor. Been hard being alone. You are my bright spot. Stay supportive, you are what most couples need for inspiration. Never did get that coffee and donut at Dip-A-Dee.

[@TehxHope]

Love these kinds of vlogs!! So nice to see you guys happy and enjoying the simple pleasures of life

[@bobseeger342]

Oh it's so good seeing you guys together again and what a great time you guys are having with Goose love the way Goose is so playful that's what you both needed. 😊 thanks for sharing this happy video and till next time sending much love ❤️ to you Adam, Bernardo and Goose 🤠

The way he looked so concerned when ya went under water lol

[@greg4410]

To share your love with a person or an animal is a blessing. I think you both should expand your family. You both were glowing, and smiling. Keep us updated.

[@ksagg2008]

I ABSOLUELY LOVED THIS VIDEO! Yes, you guys would make great Daddies. It even gives me some thought on dog sitting myself later on when I am home more, like when I retire. This made my Sunday. Hugs, Kevin Brennan

[@davidburch8888]

Glad to see both of you happy again. Dogs 🐕 are fun to watch nice thing the don't ask for the car or money. Like children do no whining when your ready to leave. Labadoodles are the best dogs the are very smart. ❤ Glad to see back on utube

Most definitely should get a dog. What it has done for me is to take my focus off myself so much. Dogs are great therapy. Best of luck.

[@mikewolfe5829]

Mister Goose is adorable! Whenever you guys are ready, you'll make awesome pet parents. Key things: love, cuddles, treats, and poop bags.

Парни, как же я рада, что вы снова вместе 🤗👍❤️И у вас появился такой милый детёныш 😊! Берегите себя!!!

[@TommyIvors]

How right you are, this was a fun video to watch and learn from. If Goosey could talk he would definitely say WOW, you both passed being the perfect daddies test. It was so great seeing how calm and relaxed having another living being around seemed to make you both appear to be, animals have a way of sensing when you need that extra bit of loving. When you are ready, Google the many breeds of dogs that are out there to learn the traits that make them each so different. Also, as an animal rights activist, I must thank you for wanting to adopt your dog being the large number of animals in shelters outweigh the number of adopters amounting to far too many dogs in agencies that never find their furever home and end up being euthanized for lack of space. 🐾

[@JasonHall-l2g]

Love you guys

[@matthewpegram7834]

YOU GUY'S DID GREAT. GOOSEY WAS SO BLESS AND HAPPY TO BE APART OF YOUR LIFE FOR JUST A BRIEF TIME, DEFINITELY A GOOD DECISION

[@jeremyjeremy5400]

I think you guys did great. And being a dad myself, I have to say it is the most amazing thing you can ever do. If you happen to go with a baby or a toddler, watching them grow and learn is such a rewarding experience that you can never explain or forget!!

[@storm6158]

You guys are 100 % great furbaby daddies. Dogs are some of the best therapy you can get. Hope you decide to get your own. Nice to see you both so happy and relaxed. Thanks for sharing 👍 🇨🇦 🍁

[@kcali_058]

Great seeing you guys again. A dog like Goose fits your lifestyle and energy. Definitely passed, and no college...lol. On my third rescue, and parents can tell when their "baby" has had a good time or a great time. The exuberance Goose displayed when he returned home was certainly proof of that. I will be purchasing mugs, they look awesome, and will make excellent gifts.Take Care. Much love from Cali!!

[@ashleybuck5374]

Definitely the best video hands down, and YES you would make the best fur baby dads. You both put so much love into this fur baby, I can’t imagine how it would be if he was really your own. POodles are a good breed due to being low allergy. I have had 2 and they are worth there weight In Gold. ❤❤

Both of you guys are great daddies! The kindness you showed towards Goosey reflects your kind and loving nature. It's just another reason why I love you guys! Thank you for sharing this video with us, your adoring fans. Have a great summer! Mike Jones from Whiting, Indiana

[@dugald56]

That dog is so gorgeous. Apart from the exercise they force you to take, they provide some ballast in one’s life - emotionally and just being there as companions. You can tell them anything too and they don’t judge or betray confidences! We have three, so I guess I’m biased… Cats are awesome (in a different way) too, but I’m wildly allergic to them. Life threatening asthmatic attacks! So…

[@richardbuckwalter8571]

This was a great video guys!! It was great to see you both together again, enjoying life!! ❤ You both definitely passed as daddies!! You could tell Goose loved you both, and was happy!! This was a happy and touching, feel good video!! Love you both!! ❤ Take care until next video!! ❤

[@bobrown2901]

Goose is so cute, but kind of big. I can't imagine picking up the giant poop!!🤎🛖🪵👞👢🟫🟤 You may want to have Goose sleep over while it is raining, so you can experience walking and playing in the cold, wet weather. Love you both, and I'm so happy to see Bernardo again.🩵💙

[@tstieber]

Probably not gonna rain in Portland very much during the summer though... I just wanted to chime in on big poops. Our dog was this size and had huge poops. Our niece and nephew have a tiny dog with tiny poops. Either way, you're going to have to grab a bag and feel it, so there's no getting around that. But small poops just seem weird and uncomfortable, like you're picking up tiny toy doll poop that shouldn't even exist

[@bobrown2901]

@tstieber Omg, doll poop🤣!! Guess as long as I took an extra bag so I could catch my vomit, I guess I could clean up poop. I have never had a 🐕, just kitties. I love dogs, too, just can't imagine cleaning up after them. If I ever think I may want a dog, I will try dog sitting first to see how I do.

[@brianoliver6249]

[@peggyesquibel8353]

Goose is adorable! You two definitely need a dog! You will be great dads! With Bernardos allergies, maybe look into hypoallergenic dog breeds. Adam you are becoming quite the artist! I love the Pride Flag cup you designed! We have donated to the Trevor Project in the past. Wonderful organization and very needed right now as the LGBTQUIA+ community is being threatened. Take care guys! Much love, big hugs and Happy Pride!🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🌈

Hey Peggy, so happy to see you here. Yes, we will probably have to get a hypoallergenic breed but oddly enough he wasn't allergic to the Husky we saw at the Humane Society.

You'll be outstanding daddies! Dogs add so much to your lives - they get excited just to be around you, they remind you when things get tough, just take a nap! The ONLY issue with dogs (or cats) is when they're ready to cross the Rainbow Bridge. It's just like losing a child and it's really hard. Just remember: they're a part of your life but you're everything in their lives!
