Unfortunately you are correct.

I guess I don't see much value in submitting an xray that won't pass unless that information is released to the OFA searchable database. The only positive I can see is that it would contribute to the statistical database of normal vs dysplastic Those figures are already skewed so how much value are they to breeders? If the dysplastic dogs are identified and if there are any litter mates or if the sire and dam have been evaluated, that information will automagically pop up on the screen. IMO that would be of a lot more value than simply adding one more GSD to a number that probably doesn't matter anyway; it will never reflect the true percentage of normal vs dysplastic and will never tell us which lines and dogs have the better production records.
