Hip X-Rays, What do you think?

kleinenHain · 03-08-2010, 09:01 PM

These are x-rays taken of a 1 year old male, What would you rate them?

JOSHUA SAMPSON · 03-08-2010, 09:06 PM

looks good to me but i'm no expert although (you probbably know you cant get them rated until 2 years old)

here's a link to compare

The Importance of Good Positioning on Canine Hip X-rays

great info on positioning and what to look for.
good hips bad hips and good/bad positionig examples

Yes I do know that, these are prelims. i will do OFA's at 2 years.

kleinenHain · 03-08-2010, 09:09 PM

Oops forgot to say nice links

thanks

sokay, just out of curiosity what did prelims cost and what do they do for you (possibly getting an opinion from a vet i might think?)

kleinenHain · 03-08-2010, 09:14 PM

I did hips and elbows and it cost me 150.00, very good vet I might add. I always do prelims at 1 year old to send in to OFA. this boy is going to be my next Agility dog and I want to know he will hold up to all the jumping.

I think they will go "good."

My guess is also good. There is good coverage of the joint. The x-ray is slightly rotated which I'm thinking makes the one side (our right) look a little flattened.
