Does anyone have a digital copy of some hip xrays that were rated using the German "a" stamp system? Ideally, I'd like to get some copies of a normal, fast normal, and nz rated xrays.

I am considering writing an article about hip rating systems.

Where are you going to post / publish it?

Would love to read it when you are done.

Pretty sure Christine is looking for actual images of dogs rated A1-A3 via SV, as she is interested in WRITING an article comparing rating systems, not looking for examples of OFA grades. I think she knows those pretty well.

Yes, please. Actual xrays that were given ratings by the SV system. Not images of the dogs, not OFA's faulty comparison charts. Actual images of xrays that were rated.

You aren't implying that OFA isn't infallible, are you?! Egads!
