I'm thrilled and excited - we got back Bingley's hip results and his score is . . .

I'm sooooooo proud of my boy (isn't that funny)!! Here they are:

| I'm no expert but they look nice & snug to me! Well done Bingley! |
Those are some "excellent" looking hips!!!
It's always a great feeling once those hips come back clear, and an even better feeling when they come back with the highest score.
I have always only had the hips cleared through our Canadian registry, OVC. I was told the hips must be the equivelant of an OFA "Good" to pass. Since I like the fact that OFA gives an actual grading, I had my last bitch certified through OFA, and her hips came back Excellent as well. I have decided to certify with OFA from now on, because I really also like the fact that hip scores are published online. |
| Congrats!!! What great news about Bingley! |
| Nice leg muscle development too old boy. Found the bobbed tail a bit disconcerting...........never looked at it from the inside. |
| those are some fine looking hips!!!! |
| Congrats! |
Wow Emily that is great!
Good hips go beyond showing and breeding it is the health of your dog and its quality of life. I know first hand since I had a dog with severe hip dysplasia. Even though Harry is fixed I had him tested anyway and his hips were rated as good. |
Thanks everyone - it's crazy but I am sooo thrilled about this - the quality of life thing is what really makes me happy. I guess the 6 months we carried him up and down the stairs were worth it . . .  |
| Beautiful! |
| He ought to do good in agility. |
| I'm sure Grandma is just as proud of Bing as you area. She breeds quality pups!!! |
| Congratulations guys!!! Welcome to the excellent hips club!!! |
YAY Always great to get the results and all is "Excellant"!!! Your real "HIP" now Bingley and can do the Hipey Hipey Shake
Great looking hips Bingley  |

Great news Emily! Congrats to Edy too for producing such a healthy boy!  |
Nice hips!!

Congratulations! |
| That's awesome. They really don't look like they could be any better. He should be a Super Terrific Excellent! |
That is not the "bobbed tail" you are seeing, uhhh , rather his boy thing

Don't forget the adrenaline when you are waiting to see the x-ray, before it is submitted.

stairs will not effect his hip structure - but can aggravate poorly structured hips. my girl is OFA excellant and ran up and down the stairs from day one - often more than once at a time - she thought it a great game. my boy was carried for weeks. he has bad hips. | Congrats, Emily & Edy! It's great news for Bingley!!  | Kerry you are correct, if a dog does not have the gene for hd it can do whatever without affecting hips, but you don't know until you x-ray, therefore I advise my puppy people not to let the puppy run up stairs all day long etc.
With doing this you might be able to prevent worse , i.e fair to good, borderline to fair.

Congratulations! Having just lost our girl with severe hip dyplasia, I can tell you it is NO fun to live through, either for us or the dog.
And think of the 6 months of carrying him up/down the stairs as practice for carrying the baby!!  | cingratulations Bingley  |

When Tim did Suzi's he came out of the back with this super serious look on his face. I thought the worst! Then he said, "Well isn't anybody going to ask what they are? Because they look perfect and I thought you'd be excited!" Geesh! Talk about making a situation more tense! | | LOL I was thrilled to hear your voice when you thought they were great, Edy - it made my day! And then getting the report was just confirmation!! You did a fantastic job breeding!!!!!!! |
