OFA Recommended Tests for Standard Poodles
Hip Dysplasia (One of the Following)
OFA Evaluation or
PennHIP Evaluation
https://poodleclubofamerica.org/health-concerns/
The common diseases in the Standard Poodle include Addisons, Bloat, Epilepsy, Hip Dysplasia, Hypothyroidism, Patellar Luxation, Sebaceous Adenitis, Von Willebrands, Progressive Retinal Atrophy, and Neonatal Encephalopathy.
Although there is not a genetic test for Addisons, Sebaceous Adenitis, and other autoimmune conditions, we participate in VGL testing through Better Bred and consider diversity in all breed plans to lessen the risks of these autoimmune disorders in the puppies we produce.
BLOAT
Every Poodle Owner Must Educate themselves about Bloat.

Our Dogs are tested to meet or go beyond CHIC recommendations.
We
aim to do both Pennhip and OFA evaluations, and both Thyroid and Heart.
We do our best to update Heart and Eyes annually even on our retired dog
We also submit for OFA
Dentition, Patella, and have also begun doing Elbows. Because Thyroid disease may not be caught at 2 years old, we test our dogs again before 6 years of age. Our dogs are either Embark or PawPrint tested for DM, NEwS, PRA, VwD, as well as prcd4, Day Blindness, and other genetic disease test available for Standard or Miniature Poodles when applicable.
