Breed note

Australian Shepherds are highly intelligent, energetic herding dogs requiring high-protein, energy-dense nutrition to fuel their demanding workload. Grain-free or whole-grain formulas with chicken, turkey, or fish support lean muscle and endurance. Omega-3 fatty acids maintain their medium-length, water-resistant double coat. Glucosamine protects joint health, and L-carnitine supports efficient energy metabolism in this working breed.
