Yes, Australian Shepherds are prone to several genetic health issues, including hip dysplasia, elbow dysplasia, and certain eye conditions like cataracts and progressive retinal atrophy. They can also be susceptible to epilepsy and autoimmune disorders. Regular veterinary check-ups and responsible breeding practices can help mitigate these risks. It's important for prospective owners to be aware of these potential health concerns when considering the breed.
