Hip dysplasia is the rate of hip accelerated
To diagnose HD/ED in a dog that has early onset of HD/ED which indicated bad genetics or poor care. That is what OFA and Penn hip are for, but all dogs developed HD/ED as some point in their lives do to aging.
The goal is to catch dogs that show symptoms of early onset and to take them out of the gene pool. Because hip dysplasia is just basically rapid degenerative bone (which again is due to aging or poor care) but should not be seen in such an early age. Some dogs carry the genetics for early onset HD and some dogs just have poor care..nutrition,exercise(to much,not enough) stupid owners that feed poor quality food the list goes on .....
mobility/degeneration to say that any dog weather OFA excellent or Penn hip will not experience HD is FALSE.To diagnose HD/ED in a dog that has early onset of HD/ED which indicated bad genetics or poor care.
