Welcome to LIDA!

...where you can explore the prevalence and nature of inherited disorders in common breeds of dog.
Information on prevalence has been obtained from
Guide to congenital and heritable disorders in dogs (pdf)
published by:
The Association of Veterinarians for Animal Rights
PO Box 208, Davis, CA, USA

The breed predispositions set out in LIDA relate to US dogs.
We will replace these with real-time Australian estimates as soon as possible.

Much of the text for the entries in the LIDA database has been contributed by students of the Faculty of Veterinary Science at the University of Sydney, who kindly granted permission to use their work here.
