• The LIDA catalogue reports congenital and hereditary disorders found in pure-bred dogs as well as common conditions thought to have genetic origins because their frequency is higher than expected in certain breeds.
• The inherited disorders listed on the web-site were sourced from the Online Mendelian Inheritance of Animals database.
• New disorders are reported with regularity and while LIDA attempts to keep up-to-date with such reports it cannot guarantee that its content is complete and current.
• The importance of disorders described in the LIDA catalogue varies in terms of frequency and severity.
• Users of LIDA are strongly encouraged to take professional advice before using LIDA data to make breeding or purchasing plans.
