At Island Doodles, every puppy begins with carefully selected, health-tested parents. Before any dog enters our breeding program, they complete comprehensive health and genetic evaluations to help us make thoughtful, informed breeding decisions.

Our parent dogs receive:

✔️ OFA Hip Evaluations

✔️ OFA Elbow Evaluations

✔️ OFA Patella Evaluations

✔️ OFA Cardiac Evaluations

✔️ OFA Eye Certifications

✔️ Comprehensive Genetic DNA Testing

Health testing allows us to make responsible pairings, reduce the risk of inherited conditions, and continue improving each generation. While no breeder can guarantee a puppy will never experience a health issue, we believe careful planning and health testing provides the strongest possible foundation for a long, healthy life.

Transparency Matters: We are happy to discuss our health testing and provide documentation for the parents of your puppy upon request.
