Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.
Cystinuria Type 3 (Variant 1 & 2), Bulldog Type Risk Factor, Full Embark Panel

My husband and I were looking to add a furry new family member to our active home . Al made the entire process unbelievably smooth. From the start, he was professional, easy to work with, and incredibly informative. He kept us updated with videos and pictures of Juliet, our sweet baby Goldendoodle, and gave us everything we expected and more. When we finally brought Juliet home, we were so excited for our four-year-old granddaughter to meet her. The moment they saw each other, they instantly fell in love—something we’ll always cherish. Goldendoodles truly are amazing, and Juliet has already filled our home with so much joy. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you Al and the company, Good Dog, for helping us find the perfect addition to our family.

Al made our experience incredibly easy from start to finish. He was always responsive and took the time to answer all of our questions. Even after we brought our puppy home, he continued to check in and was happy to help with anything that came up. It was clear how much he and his family truly care for their puppies. We couldn’t be happier with our new addition and highly recommend Al!

I just want to express my appreciation for Al Martinez and his family. The care and attention they put into their puppies really shows. Every little detail—from how the pups are raised to the environment they come from—is noticed and truly appreciated. Thank you to the Martinez family for the love and effort you put into Cappuccino and your litters. It makes a difference.
