Every Australian Shepherd purchased through Lucky Little Aussies (L.L.A) has a LIFETIME Genetic Disease Warranty*

AND a Congenital Defect Warranty*!


(*See Below for Details)

Genetic Testing Warranty:

Every Mini/Toy Aussie will be Clear of ALL the Genetic Diseases Their Parents are Clear of & Each Parent/Adult dog is Tested Before breeding.


These are the diseases that are Known to commonly impact Any Size of Australian Shepherds:

Cardiorespiratory (Associated with the Heart and Lungs)


— Dilated Cardiomyopathy* - (DC)

* Orivet Removed this Test as it was Not performing Reliably.


Neurologic (Associated with the Brain, Spinal and Nerves)


— Degenerative Myelopathy - (DM)


— Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis 6 - (NCL6)


— Ivermectin Sensitivity MDR1 (Multi Drug Resistance)


Ophthalmologic (Associated with the Eyes)


— Canine Multifocal Retinopathy CMR1


— Collie Eye Anomaly/Choroidal Hypoplasia - (CEA/CH)


— Cone Degeneration - (CD)


— Hereditary Cataract - (HC)


— Progressive Rod Cone Degeneration - (PRA/PRCD)


Urogenital (Associated with the Urinary and Genital Tracts)


— Canine Hyperuricosuria - (HUU)


* Every Puppy/Adult will come with a LIFETIME Warranty that they will be GENETICALLY CLEAR (through Parentage) of EVERYTHING their PARENT'S are CLEAR for IF they keep their puppy/dog Healthy with NuVet Plus Vitamins.

If Customer Chooses Not to use NuVet through US they will Only have a TWO (2) YEAR Genetic Warranty.


NuVet Quality Wafers are Less than $4 a WEEK (IF using Auto-Ship), ONLY $230 or Less to Keep Your Fur-Baby Healthy for a WHOLE YEAR! 🥰

All The Essential Vitamins, Minerals, Prebiotics, Immune Support, Free Radical Defense & More that Your Pet Needs for ONLY $230 (or Less) Per Year & Qualifying you for the LIFETIME Genetic Warranty*!


⚠️ PRA is inherited in an Autosomal Recessive manner in dogs, meaning that they Must receive two copies of the mutated gene (one from each parent) to develop the disease. In general, carrier dogs do not have features of the disease but when bred with another carrier of the same Mutation, there is a risk of having affected pups.


A "CARRIER" ONLY has 1 Copy of a Gene and MANY of the Diseases like PRA Require 2 Copies to be "Activated", so to speak.


If a Dog that is a CARRIER (A dog that has 1 Copy of a Gene) for an Autosomal Recessive Disease (A Disease that Requires 2 Copies of a Gene for the dog to be Impacted) is bred to a Dog that is CLEAR there are NO CHANCES of puppies HAVING that Disease.


Therefore, ANY Puppy you get from us will NOT be Genetically Predisposed to HAVE or be IMPACTED BY ANY of the diseases their Parents are CLEAR of & we Warranty that!

*Some of our Adults are MDR1 POSITIVE.


*That being said, Please, feel free to check with us about Individual Adult Dog's Test Results, Review Our Contract & Ask Questions!

We do Not withhold or hide anything & are happy to Send/SHOW Results.

We, also, Post the Results Publicly on Every Seasonal Newsletters (via the Dropbox Links on our Excel Sheet).

​Below is a Reliable Resource that gives information on EACH Genetic Disease.

They are also a Great Resource to CALL and Verify everything I have said Above.

IF there IS a Test on PawPrints Full Breed Panel that L.L.A has Not Tested for, PLEASE, let L.L.A Know, as we do our Best to Keep our dogs Current/Up-To-Date on ALL Available Breed Specific Tests that are Required for the Breed!


We do our Best to keep all Breeding Dogs current on the Breed's Genetic "Full Panel".

What is a CARRIER of a RECESSIVE Disease?


Please Note:

"MDR1" is a Multi-Drug Resistant gene, this gene does NOT shorten the dogs life or impact its quality of life (if mcertain Medications are AVOIDED). Therefore there is no "Warranty" for it. The "MDR1" gene does not impact your dogs health, it just means that certain medicines/drugs must be avoided. There have been cases where even if a dog does Not possess that gene or is merely a recessive carrier of the gene the dog can be affected so it is best to always just treat the dog as though they have it even if they don't.


Please, also, Note:

ALL of Our adult dogs are Genetically Free of this disease & the puppies are Clear of HUU Genetically.

However, "HUU" (Canine Hyperuricosuria), aka Kidney Stones, can occur due to Other causes NOT Just genetics, like diet or stress & unless found to be Genetically Caused it is Not covered in the Genetic Warranty.


​"Intestinal cobalamin malabsorption (Australian shepherd type)" (ICM/Vitamin B12 Deficiency) is a New Test that we have not Yet been able to test for. This disease is Not considered a Required test for the breed and IS considered an Add-On with many companies like Orivet, GenSol and others.


ICM//Vitamin B12 Deficiency is inherited in an Autosomal Recessive manner in dogs meaning that they Must receive two copies of the mutated gene (one from each parent) to develop the disease. In general, carrier dogs do not have features of the disease but when bred with another carrier of the same Mutation, there is a risk of having affected pups.


HOWEVER, All of L.L.A's Breeding dogs will be tested (in a Timely Manner) for ALL NEW TESTS Discovered & Added to the "Miniature Australian Shepherd Breed Profile".

Fun Fact:

— Dogs Complete our Families 🥰 — According to the American Board of Family Medicine, "Over two thirds of Americans live with pets and consider them important members of the family."

Studies suggest the family dog may have an influence on the general wellbeing of family members. In 2015, the American Board of Family Medicine published a review of the evidentiary health benefits of dog ownership. They presented evidence that dogs enhance feelings of happiness, security, and self-worth and even reduce feelings of loneliness & isolation on a daily basis.

Dogs, also, encourage social trust, civic engagement, neighborhood friendliness and an overall sense of community.

Studies even showed that elderly people who own pets have a diminished need for medical services as they age!

A Special Shout Out to a Very Special Boy of ours, Riddler (a Georgia & Max Baby - Indy's Brother, Same Litter), Now known as Dodger. ⬆️


Dodger was from one of our first few litters and it was sooo hard to let him go but seeing his amazing life and how much He & His Family mean to each other Always Reminds us WHY we do this.


— Our GOAL is to Impact Lives/Families in a POSITIVE way by Helping their Family Grow with a Dog that FITS with them 🥰 —


Thank you guys for being one of our Amazing L.L.A Pawrents & letting us Follow Your Families Beautiful Journey 💕

Frequently Asked Questions:

Does L.L.A take into account Allergies when Breeding?

YES! ☺️

Our lines and dogs do not have any food, seasonal or skin allergies (aside from Jackson who has Developed Seasonal Allergies with Age, but Jackson is actually getting retired for that reason).


In general, any dog or animal could:

— Have/develop Food or Seasonal Allergies

— React negatively to various things throughout their lives

that simply do not agree with their bodies regardless of Genetics

...BUT, @LuckyLittleAussies absolutely take allergies of all kinds & the severity into account when Breeding 🥰
