OFA Radiographs - what did you pay?

Tiffseagles · 01-31-2012, 10:20 AM

I am getting price quotes in the area for my dog and am wondering what others have paid. I've been checking for clinics over the last 6 months or so, but haven't come across any nearby that offer it for dogs over 50# (my dog is 70). We are doing hips and elbows.

The quotes I have gotten so far are $350 and $400. So, what did you pay?

crackem · 01-31-2012, 10:28 AM

sheesh, I could do about 4 dogs for those prices, hips and elbows

Tiffseagles · 01-31-2012, 10:29 AM

Where are you getting those prices at?

**Liesje** · 01-31-2012, 10:39 AM

My vets charge $90 for hips, $70 for elbows.

GSDBESTK9 · 01-31-2012, 10:47 AM

$197 for Prelims
$230 for Certification

The price includes sending it to OFA.

I think it was in the 300 range it may have been less I don't really remember-I took her to Cornell-really like Cornell so figure its worth what ever I pay

Mine were under 200, maybe like 180 for hips/elbows & sent in to OFA, plus got a copy on disc

$200 including the OFA fee for sending them in - did three dogs with this price across about 5 years.

**lhczth** · 01-31-2012, 01:06 PM

$115 last year.

I used Dr Hutchinson in Cleveland for my last 3 or 4 - over $400 per dog, and they charge more than the OFA fees for the submittals, plus $10 (1.5 years ago) for a copy of the rads on disk.

A vet/GSD breeder is now more local, does a super job, and as I understand it - half of what Dr. Hutchinson charges...with the advantage of being 140 miles closer....without expensive toll roads to boot!
