While researching the OFA database, much to my surprise I came across my own dog, Melana's Orion, in the database with "GSDCA Temperament Test". He's too young to be certified hips and elbows so I just hadn't gotten around to submitting the temperament test certificate to OFA myself. I can only assume the GSDCA is submitting results to OFA???? Seems odd to me that OFA accepts submissions for publication from anyone other than the owner of a dog, but maybe I missed the fine print when I signed the entry form ; ) I see some dogs results that say passed and some that don't, so is the GSDCA submitting all dogs tested or just the ones who passed? I'm especially curious because although my own dog passed and I have the certificate to prove it, the published results on OFA's site do not say "passed" which may give the public the impression that he didn't.
