The big problem and I mean BIG PROBLEM is ,when hips show up bad at a vets
office, the breeders are not sending those x-rays to OFA. This creates a
false positive in statistical data!!!!!! If they only get the ones the local
vets think will pass, it looks like we are improving our breed.... maybe we
are.
Yes, but I am sure that ALL of the other breeds do that as well. So in
comparison there is an improvement. However it is important that breeders are
honest about these things and eliminate those dogs that are effected. I had a
vet tell me the entire litter should be eliminated in order to wipe it out!
I agree if there are multiple dogs in a litter but if there is only one then
I completely disagree...
