Getting a dog is a lifetime commitment. It is very important for you to know what natural health problems your dog breed would face. Below you will find a great infographic from DogPsycho.com that describes common natural health problems for 25 most popular dog breeds.
If you are a person in love with the breed Siberian husky, you will definitely like to go through it. This category of dogs generally undergo autoimmune disorders. This disorder would affect the eyes and the skin of the pet. It would create sores which would even lead to glaucoma and cataracts.
On the other hand, Bulldogs face respiratory problems, due to the smashed faces, they are born with. A Bulldog small nostril is the reason for their snores, and this would lead them into trouble if their body gets overheated.
The ever cute Pugs face problems with their eyes due to smashed face. If Pug’s eyes pop out, it is safe to rush immediately to a veterinarian to reduce the intensity of the problem.
Large breeds like German Shepherd face problems with joints and the fittings. They face problems while walking, and joint pains would make your cute pet get into sickness and depression.
Golden Retrievers are known for great family dogs and suffer from allergies more than most other breeds. Sugar can relate to this breed natural health problems.

that was interesting… many thanks for a great information :O)
Very interesting. I need to find a site on Vizslas so I can find out their health issues. Thanks for sharing I have past it on to friends that have dogs on the list.
Knock on wood, Phod has only had ear infections to date as his Shepherd problem (which they are also prone too).
Nice read. My cairn terrier was very recently diagnosed with Cushing’s Disease, not really common to her breed, but definitely common to some. Seems like there are so many different problems they can all have. And none of them easy.
I haven’t heard of shelties having collie eyes and shelties are not even related to collies even though many people think they are miniature collies.
We are what mom calls expensive mutts.
Keep Calm & Bark On!

Good infographic Sugar. For the Goldendoodle – allergies and hip displaysia issues seem to diminish slightly with the cross breed. I will have to look into glaucoma when they go to their vet. Thanks so much
