Spine issues and OFA Hips are totally unrelated.  IS this her diagnosis, has 
she been xrayed?  How long has she had this issue?  According to this site, it 
DM CAN occur in younger dogs, a simple blood test can confirm, normal age is 
between 4-14.

Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Spinal myelopathy in young dogs
 
Has anyone ever heard of Spinal Myelopathy in young dogs, e.g. 2 and 1/2 
years?  I have friends who have a 2 1/2 year old shepherd who is showing the 
signs and they are baffled.  The dog is a female and  otherwise fine, but has 
been wobbley on her back end.  The typical walk, walk, flop over to one side 
that we know.  Any comments?  Both parents are OFA certified and so are 
grandparents for several generations??? Claire DrosdickAvion Kennels
