Hello All,
I am interessted in hearing some opinions of these x-ray foto's. Bitch is just turned 12months old and i am interessted in buying her but she lives in another country so i cant have the foto's redone until she is here with me. The current owner says that the elbows and hips are good.
I have sent them off to my vet and await his reply but till then thought i could ask some knowledgeble people around here.
thanks in advance!

Don't know much about elbows,
but, those are nice clear pics, I'd say that the hips are good to excellent, very tight fitting into sockets.

Hips look fine. Elbows are not positioned correctly, they should be more flexed (flexed all the way). But even if they were positioned correctly, I wouldn't know what to say about them, can't read elbows.

elbows normal, though not completely developed due to young age. hips A. very nice for one this young.
good luck, stephanie, if you decide to buy her. looks like a nice, solid dog from these films.

As mentioned above correctly the elbows need to be much flexed ,the elbows look perfect to me at present the anconeal process is not united but thats because of the age of the female,The dog must be 2 years old fopr correct evaluation of elbows.The hips are fantastic a1 in germany and excellent for OFA.The elbows would be normal for this dog.Regards.

Those are kick ass hips, I think you will have hard time finding any one that would rate those hips less than good, elbos I have no idea how to read those but they look fine to me.

You probably have come across this website already, but just in case you haven't. It shows the different hip displasia grades with diagrams. You can find a diagram similar to Foto's x-ray.
