Do Australian Shepherds have health issues?
Australian Shepherds are healthy on the whole, though they do suffer from some genetic health issues such as epilepsy, hip dysplasia, eye disorders, autoimmune diseases, heart disease, and various forms of cancer, including lymphoma, and osteosarcoma.
Regular veterinary check-ups, a nutritious diet, exercise, and preventative measures are essential for Australian Shepherds to live a long and healthy life.
