Hip X-ray opinion - Page 1

 

Two year old female GSD - sedated. Thoughts please...

My limited knowledge, nice

My  personal preference would be to see the sockets a bit deeper however, you should at least get a fair;  possibly a good.  Best of luck  Nan

I had people tell me HD. I agree more coverage would be ideal, but certainly don't feel she has HD....

No way are those hips dysplastic! I would ideally like to see better development of the femoral head, and deeper sockets, but the hips are well-seated in the sockets, with no gaps (subluxation). Also, if you look at the line on the ball joint that marks the edge of the joint capsule, you will see the coverage IS good.

I think they will likely rate as good, or at least fair.

Thank you Sunsilver. I had to post here to get German Shepherd experienced folks opinions. Fingers are crossed. She did prelim good.
