The Importance of Health Testing

Part of what makes Double J Aussies exceptional and distinguished from other Aussies are the Certifications from the Health Testing that has been completed on them. To ensure as best we can that you are getting a healthy puppy, we have completed all three of the expensive DNA Hereditary Health Tests on our adult Aussies. Our adult Aussies have also been ceriified with the OFFA to make sure they do not have Hip Dysplasia. If you have not read "The Importance of Health Testing", please do take the time to read this, before you purchase a puppy from any breeder.

30 Month Written Health Guarantee

Responsible Breeders of Australian Shepherds test their Aussies for Hereditary Diseases and other Genetic issues. Hereditary Cataracts (HSF4 - HC Mutation), Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA), Hip Dysplasia (OFA Exam), Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA) are some of these Diseases. We use the OFA to certify the hips of our adult Aussies. We also use OptiGen, Animal Genetics & the AHT to test their eyes. We offer a written 30 Month Health Guarantee and the AKC CAR Microchips with our puppies.
