Has anyone ever used PennHip?? We always?submit to OFA first, and if there
is any question about their findings, we?do a PennHip.??
The negative side to?PennHip is?that it is usually more expensive, and there
are a limited number of vets who are certified to do it.? But it is nice to
get a second type of evaluation when in doubt.

I have (back when I was using a vet who insisted on knocking them out, I
prelimed OFA hip and elbows and did PennHip simultaneously...boy was that one
heck of a bill, lol!), and although there are different things measured, the
overall results were the same, i.e. a good OFA rating along with a nice PennHip
score.
Now that I use a vet who doesn't insist on anesthesia, there's no reason for
me to do it.
