Health & Testing
Thoughtfully bred with health at the foundation
At Milk & Honey Doodles, health is never an afterthought it is the foundation of everything we do. We carefully evaluate every dog in our program to ensure we are producing puppies that are healthy, sound, and set up for long, happy lives.
Where Health Begins
At Milk & Honey, health is not something we check off a list it is something we build into every step of what we do.
Long before a puppy is ever born, we are carefully selecting, evaluating, and planning with intention.
Because healthy puppies don’t happen by chance… they come from thoughtful decisions made far in advance.
Our Standard
Every dog in our program is fully health tested before being considered for breeding.
We use a combination of genetic testing and OFA evaluations to ensure our dogs are not only healthy on paper, but sound in structure and stable in temperament.
If a dog does not meet our standards, they are not bred.
It really is that simple.
More Than Just DNA
Genetic testing allows us to screen for breed-specific conditions and make safe, informed pairing decisions.
But we don’t stop there.
We also evaluate:
structure and movement
temperament and trainability
overall soundness and quality
Because true health is more than just DNA it’s how a dog lives, moves, and interacts with the world.
Intentional Pairings
Every pairing in our program is carefully planned.
We look at the full picture genetics, temperament, structure, and long-term goals to create puppies that are well-rounded and consistent.
We are not breeding for one moment… we are building for the future.
