Hip X-ray opinions - Page 2

Hips look excellent . I do not agree to the statement that her pedigree is poor for hips as  she is linebred on Fero  x 3  a hip improver. Fero was A2 but always improved hips .

Thank you everyone. I do greatly appreciate all of the comments. I will post again as soon as I get an OFA result.

Does anyone know what they are charging for prelimbs these days? Their website says $35, but they only charged me $30? Was this a mistake?

Call me stupid but I can't get her ped. to come up. I'm curious now. Hips look peachy to me. ;-)

Spine is rotated so that hip on right side of xray is more distant from film/plate/sensor and this gives a biased view on that side, making it look worse than it is (actually it is likely OK).  IMO hips are fine, should go at least OFA fair, maybe better.  I doubt OFA would accept this xary due to positionng issues.  This GSD is likely to never have any hip symptoms if fed and exercised properly without excess weight.

Preston - these are actually some of the best x-rays I have had done, position wise. The vets around here are not very good at positioning. I even spent extra $$ to go to the University of Florida and they did a MUCH worse job on another dog of mine.

This vet, by far, has done the best job on positioning. I do agree, though, that the positioning could be improved upon. I only wish I could go in there and do it myself, lol.

Jenni - did you type in Ayla von Julich? She should pull right up

OFA Good at 20 months (prelimbs).
