Thoughts on the OFAs of my two year old Belgian Malinios?  X rays were done by Dr. Davis of Troy Animal Hospital.  The scores have not come in yet. I am thinking hips are at least a Good maybe an Excellent. I think the elbow will pass.  What do you guys think?  Registered name is Argos Vom Haus Dyer. 

 

Thanks!

Positioning is terrible.... Femurs should be parallel with the knee caps dead center of the bone.

But, the joints do look good.

Um, guys...this is Dr. Davis. The guy who did the video about proper OFA positioning ;)

Guys, please look up the vet. My dog went from having mild hip dysplasia to this. Very happy with the x rays.

In which case, I'd be curious to see what they looked like with "proper" positioning.

Hips are fine. My question is on left elbow, where I can't tell if we are seeing the back end of the joint (due to slight tilting) or if that is an osteophyte larger than allowable (under 1mm is allowable, last I checked but that may have changed). If that is actually ON the surface, then that elbow will not pass. A radiologist should be able to tell. I ain't a radiologist :D
