At Doodles of NC, we are confident that our puppies will be healthy and happy when we send them home. We want our clients to share in this confidence. So, all of our puppies come with a LIFETIME health guarantee.
​
Our Healthy Puppy Guarantee relieves the buyers of responsibility should any untreatable health conditions arise.
Goldendoodle Genetic Testing
The first step in being able to confidently provide a health guarantee on our F1B Goldendoodle puppies is our genetic testing completed on our Doodles of NC moms & dads which includes:
​
-
Degenerative Myelopathy
-
Ichthyosis (Golden Retriever Type)
-
Neonatal Encephalopathy with Seizures
-
Progressive Retinal Atrophy, Golden Retriever 1 & 2
-
Progressive Retinal Atrophy
-
Progressive Rod-Cone Degeneration
-
Von Willebrand Disease I & II
All parents passed the genetic testing which covers genetic abnormalities and diseases typical to the Golden Retriever and Poodle breeds.
Not only have our puppy parents passed the rigorous genetic testing, but our puppy’s parents parents (AKA puppy grandparents!) passed as well. So, two generations awarded a clean bill of health stand behind our health guarantee.
​
We are also completing the OFA testing, PENN hip assessments and utilizing Paw Print genetics to confirm our dogs are not carriers of genetic diseases on poodle or golden retriever sides.
Be sure to check out our blog Doodles of NC Adds OFA Hip & Elbow Testing to learn more about these testing screens.
​
Doodles of NC prides ourselves in having this proof readily accessible to any clients who request to know more.
Health Exam on Puppies
In addition, we add another layer of security on our Puppy Health Guarantee. Prior to heading home, our puppies are examined by a licensed veterinarian and screened for common abnormalities such as hernias and cleft palates.
Doodles of NC stands behind the health and quality of the puppies we breed.
