Then I would question the final determination...... 

unless the hips are ma de of titanium, they would 

have to respond physically to daily subluxation......I do not believe that 

an animal could go through daily lif e for two years and not show 

some response to the femoral head sliding in and out of the 

acetabulum. 

I have had many Vets question the evaluations that the OFA does..... 

it's sort of like judging dogs.....there is a written standard for all to 

judge by but we all have different opinions.

"remodeling of the femoral head and acetabulum and thickening 
of the femoral neck" 
  
  
Not always true.  I know of several GSDs who had subluxation checked and 
nothing else.

If relaxation were the only indication I might agree with you but......
any dog with laxity would also have physical changes in the skeletal
anatomy....remodeling of the femoral head and acetabulum and thickening
of the femoral neck.  Also, the depth of the acetabulum cannot be changed
with anesthesia.

what they mean is the ones who pass w/o relaxation maybe should "not" have
passed.
