   Health Guarantee

At Flying Feather Farm, our relationship with you continues well beyond the day your puppy comes home.  We are puppy lovers and pray nothing would ever go wrong with any puppy.  But a puppy's health is dependent on a number of factors like genetics, exercise, food, nutrition, and overall care that are not always within our control. 

While we can't guarantee that your puppy will never have a health problem, we can promise we will do our best to ensure your new family member is healthy from the moment he or she arrives home! 


We offer a health guarantee to help give you peace of mind.  We strive to only breed the healthiest dogs, and in turn, have the confidence to offer a 2 year extended Health Warranty. Our puppy parents have all been tested and cleared for genetic diseases, cardiac, orthopedic and ophthalmic abnormalities before entering our breeding program.

​

We follow the strict health testing requirements of the Goldendoodle Association of America, (GANA), at the blue ribbon level, which has the most extensive health testing requirements. In other words, we do everything possible to provide you with a healthy and happy puppy.  Below is a list of tests/abnormalities our dogs are checked for, not all dogs are checked for every abnormality, only those breeds prone to the disease or condition:
