🧬 Our Health Testing Standards
At J&O Puppies, we go beyond basic breeding practices by intentionally selecting and pairing genetically tested parents to reduce inherited disease risk and promote long-term health.
✔ Comprehensive Genetic Screening
All of our parent dogs undergo genetic testing through trusted laboratories such as Embark® to screen for hereditary conditions common to their breed backgrounds.
This allows us to:
- Identify and avoid pairing carriers of the same genetic conditions
- Reduce the risk of inherited disease
- Produce healthier, more resilient companion dogs
✔ Physical Health Evaluations
In addition to genetic testing, our dogs are routinely evaluated for:
- Patella stability
- Cardiac health
- Overall physical soundness
✔ Transparency & Buyer Confidence
We believe in full transparency while protecting the integrity of our program.
- Health testing summaries are available for every parent
- Full reports are available to approved buyers upon request
✔ Our Philosophy
Rather than relying on outdated breeding methods, we combine:
- Modern genetic science
- Careful pairing strategies
- Real-world health outcomes
To produce puppies that are not only beautiful—but built for lifelong health.
