Nans, This is the  4 1/2 showline girl. My boy will be 2 end of this month he is schedule 1st week of Nov. He is still getting plenty of swimming. But here in Northern Maine things cool down quickly so now down to 2 to 3 days a week. 
And I'm going to use the same vet that took these pictures. Out of all the vets I've used(4) I think the positioning of the dog looks good and this vet is digital.I have a good feeling about my boys hips.

Now a quick question, Would it be best if we cut way back on his ball time and keep him quiet until xrays or just keep up his normal routine?

by Nans gsd on 05 October 2013 - 12:10

NO;  I would keep up his routine, if you are thinking it might be too much, just cut back a little.  The swimming I think is key;  and of course his happiness goes along with his routine(s).  Very important also;  but physically, swimming, soft sand walks, or beach walks in water and sand, etc.  This is all good.  Jumping, NO...not until after x-rays;  then maybe not jumping either...  No road work for now particularly  on pavement  none of that hard work stuff.  Keep lean and well muscled.

Thank you so much for getting back to us on the raiting. I had guessed fair and it helps to know if I was right/wrong in furthering my knowledge and eye for these. In this case I was correct.

And I was pretty sure her age would get her a good, guess OFA is tightening their belts...  BOL with your boy.  Nan
