How A6 ausland compares with ofa?? - Page 1

Hi, can anyone tell me what and A6, ausland rating compares to the OFA s rating? thanks in advance!

I was told it's not just a rating, but out of the Country or something along those lines.
It sounds to me like very very bad hips but I might be wrong.
I would really like to know as well.

YES A6 is just (not SZ/ Germany) You must find the entity that did that animals hips to get the exact rating.

Thanks to both of you, I actually did a google search on it and it came up as meaning the dog has passing hips, but wasn't xrayed in Germany but elsewhere.

As has been said, the 'ausland' part of the term refers to a recognized hip certification that was done somewhere other than by the SV. The "A6" hasn't any negative connotation--it simply means the dog received a passing grade from the other country's recognized orthopedic certification organization.  It's similar to seeing "a-zuerkannt" in some pedigrees, instead of the specific rating.
