Is there OFA certification for elbow joints?

Explanation of Elbow Grades The only grades involved are for abnormal elbows with radiographic changes associated with secondary degenerative joint disease. Like the hip certification, the OFA will not certify a normal elbow until the dog is 2 years of age. The OFA also accepts preliminary elbow radiographs.

Can you submit PennHIP to OFA?

PennHIP: The OFA will record PennHIP results on request. The dog must have an existing OFA record of some type. To submit, the owner should email or mail a copy of the PennHIP report to the OFA at: ofa@offa.org, or 2300 E Nifong Blvd Columbia, MO 65201.

Does AKC accept PennHIP?

Will AKC and other breed registration organizations recognize PennHIP? In 1996, the AKC board of directors announced plans to remove all health and genetic information from the official AKC registration and to include it along with PennHIP information in the Information and Health Database known as CHIC.

How do I submit results to OFA?

Submitting Your Report When submitting the report to the OFA, you will need to complete an OFA DNA Application, which can be found on their website. At the top of the application, please write which tests you want to register with the OFA.

Is PennHIP better than OFA?

OFA: Provides a snapshot of hip conformation at a specific point in time but may not predict future development of hip dysplasia. PennHIP: Offers valuable predictive information about a dogs susceptibility to developing hip dysplasia later in life, aiding in breeding decisions and proactive management.

Where can I get my dogs hips and elbows scored?

A panel of experts provide a graded score for each x-ray. Your vet can organise this for you and will send the x-rays off to be scored and will relay your dogs results to you.
