About the Australian Shepherd

Despite the name, the Australian Shepherd was developed in the American West, where it became a favorite of ranchers and rodeo performers. Its ancestors are thought to have arrived with sheep imported from Australia, which may be where the name comes from.

Smart, athletic, and devoted, Aussies thrive on activity and a close bond with their people. That busy body and brain are part of why daily wellness is worth thinking about early.

Adding a high-quality daily supplement to your Aussie's routine is a great way to support their overall health. Pair it with a healthy diet, plenty of daily exercise and training, regular vet care, and regular brushing.

What's the best supplement for Australian Shepherds?

A daily supplement personalized to your Aussie supports a healthy, active life, with targeted support for the areas Aussies need most: their hips and joints, calm and focus, skin and coat, and digestion. The right balance depends on their age, weight, activity level, lifestyle and what you are seeing day to day.

A few quick questions is all it takes to build one formula around them.

Get Started

Hip & joint support

Aussies are athletic, agile, and always ready for the next game of fetch, frisbee, or agility course. All that running and jumping keeps their hips and elbows busy. Keeping them lean, building muscle with steady exercise, and limiting repetitive high jumps while they're growing all help.

How supplements add support

Every Canine Keeps formula starts with our Keepwell Blend™, which includes green-lipped mussel, collagen, and PEA to support cartilage, cushioning, and everyday mobility, plus omega-3s from fish oil and DHA. Most diets don't provide joint-specific nutrients like these in meaningful amounts, so a daily serving keeps them consistent. If joints are your Aussie's top priority, their Balanced Blend adds more targeted support on top.

Calm & focus support

Aussies are smart, loyal herding dogs who want to be part of everything. Without enough exercise and mental work, they can get restless, herd the family, or worry when left alone. Daily activity, training games, and a predictable routine help them feel focused and settled.

How supplements add support

Every Canine Keeps formula includes calming botanicals like ashwagandha and chamomile in our Keepwell Blend™, plus omega-3s that support brain health. If calm is your Aussie's top priority, their Balanced Blend adds calming support with ingredients like L-theanine and passionflower.

Skin & coat support

That gorgeous, medium-length double coat sheds year-round and heavily with the seasons. Brushing a few times a week, more during shedding season, and gentle baths keep it healthy and tangle-free, and because skin comfort is connected to the gut and immune system, support from the inside matters too.

How supplements add support

Canine Keeps supports skin and coat from the inside, with omega-3s from fish oil and DHA, antioxidant-rich blueberry and spirulina, and probiotics that support the gut-immune connection behind seasonal comfort. Whole foods provide some antioxidants, but every scoop adds a concentrated, consistent amount.

Gut & digestive support

Some Aussies have sensitive stomachs, especially when their routine or food changes. A healthy gut means comfortable digestion, regular stools, and support for nutrient absorption to fuel their active days. A consistent diet and gradual food switches go a long way.

How supplements add support

Every Canine Keeps formula includes multiple strains of probiotics, including spore-forming strains that hold up well in the bowl, plus a prebiotic to help them thrive. If digestion is your Aussie's top priority, their Balanced Blend adds extra digestive support on top.

Why Canine Keeps for Australian Shepherds

Get My Dog's Formula

Even a great diet doesn't always cover everything an Aussie needs. Every Canine Keeps formula starts with a foundation of everyday support, then adds targeted ingredients based on your dog's unique needs.

Our formulas are made with premium, human-grade ingredients, formulated by a canine nutritionist, and minimally processed to protect delicate nutrients. A pre-measured scoop makes it easy to give the right amount every day, and because it mixes right into their meal, it quickly becomes part of the daily routine, without the fillers and empty calories that come with many soft chews.

It's support that grows with them, from the puppy years, when building a strong foundation matters most, to their senior years, when a little extra support helps keep their best days going.

What dog parents are saying

“Lily loves her Canine Keeps. Her stool has been firmer, and seems to be less itchy! She actually enjoys her food more now that this is on it.”
Arum K.Lily
“Duke's balanced blend has been a great addition to his diet. With his age (14) he's a very picky eater, but scarfs his food down with the powdered blend. His skin/coat, digestion, and joints have been reenergized.”
Davin Z.Duke, 14 years old
“I've noticed benefits from him on this supplement blend already! He seems to have way more balanced energy, no hip or joint stiffness, and generally happier all around.”
George R.
“Not only does he love the taste of the powder on his food, but I've noticed an improvement in his itching and paw licking! Such an easy and tailored solution to giving your pet supplements.”

Australian Shepherd questions, answered

When should I start joint support for my Aussie?

The earlier, the better. Joint support works best as a consistent daily habit that starts before you notice your Aussie slowing down, and every Canine Keeps formula includes it. Our formulas are recommended for dogs 6 months and older.

My Aussie has a sensitive stomach. Can a supplement help?

Yes. Daily gut support helps maintain a balanced gut and comfortable digestion. If digestion is your Aussie's top priority, their personalized formula adds extra digestive support on top. Pair it with a consistent diet and gradual food switches.

How long until I notice a difference?

Many dog parents notice a difference within the first couple of weeks. The best results come with about 90 days of consistent daily use, as the benefits build over time. That's why our flexible deliveries make it easy to never miss a day, and why every order is backed by our 90-day risk-free guarantee.
