x-ray opinions please:) - Page 2

Don't think I have seen better. Congratulations

Nice hips and backbone, but no knees.
Looks at least good, if not excellent to me.

AKC wants to see the knees on the film to make sure they are rotated inwardly. That gives them a better look at the depth of the socket, the overall  fit, and the shape of the ball. The examples on their site are probably edited to show only the hip conformation. If you surf their site and read the instructions to the xraying vets, you will see that those instruction say that the knees should be included on the xray. They will probably not return an xray that doesn't included the knees unless there is a question about the xray. The worst that could happen with an xray like this one is that is won't get an excellent due to the knees NOT being included on the xray. That's why I'm thinking good and not excellent, but OFA has the final say. Either way these are certainly normal hips.

 

I could NOT resist....I just called ofa, they just put them in the mail...

ofa Excellent!!!!!  Normal elbows......YAY!!!!

I am extra happy as Maggie is my fifth generation breeding

Huge congrats, Paula.

Thanks everyone for taking a peak

Maggie just got her TC, she passed the Temperament test given by the GSDCA, so now she will be a CHIC dog

 

Wow, congrats... you are like in a special club now!    OFA is stingy with those Excellents on GSDs.

I couldn't help but check out the pedigree and was surprised to see both parents were Fairs too!  Beautiful girl BTW.

Congrats! Koodos to you too, with this being your 5th generation.
