Haystack Mountain Bernedoodles is proud to announce its unwavering commitment to breeding Bernedoodle puppies that exemplify the highest standards of health and well-being. Recognizing the importance of transparency and rigorous health protocols, the program has implemented comprehensive measures to ensure each puppy's optimal health.

Advanced Hip Dysplasia Screening:

Understanding the prevalence of Canine Hip Dysplasia (CHD) in Bernedoodles, Haystack Mountain Bernedoodles exclusively utilizes the PennHip method for hip evaluation. Unlike the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) test, which has shown limitations in predicting CHD risk, PennHip offers a research-validated assessment involving three separate radiographs to measure hip joint laxity. This rigorous approach ensures a more accurate evaluation of hip health, significantly reducing the risk of CHD in future generations.

Comprehensive Genetic Testing:

Every breeding dog in the program undergoes extensive DNA testing through Embark to screen for breed-relevant conditions. This includes clearances for von Willebrand Disease (vWD), Degenerative Myelopathy (DM), and Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA). By ensuring that all Standard Poodles and Bernese Mountain Dogs in the breeding program are free from these conditions, Haystack Mountain Bernedoodles guarantees that their puppies are not at risk for these genetic disorders.
