2 x Sel. Ch. Quno is now 11 1/2 and was diagnosed with DJD when he was OFA'd at 2.? He is STILL running around here like a pup(even tho there were Rumors he was Gone!).? IF anyone wants to see proof, I?can make a video and put it on my website.? If no one would have bred to him, there would be limited Kridler Progeny, that's for sure.? I know, I've heard from several, that you should NOT breed to dogs that won't pass, but I have to say, we'll limit our Gene Pool Down to Nothing if you all plan on that.? Other option...breed and/or buy to German lines, but you maybe bringing in More than you expected there,too! ?Tari Kridler Home of 2003 GVx Ch.Kridler's Ruby& Her Father- 2xSel. Ch.

Hi List, I am interested in learning if an OFA rating of elbows grade 1 or 2 have eventually interfered with the dog's functionality. This could be an interesting topic for all of us. One of my pet dogs came back with a rating of 1 on one elbow, and 2 on the other. The owners are very concerned. This is a three year old animal who has been successfully training in agility and herding. He has had no visible problems.
