Is it true, that OFA, has been known to usually fail dogs if they are over age 3?

by CrashKerry on 09 September 2015 - 09:09

No. I know someone who got excellent on an almost 4 year old and another person who got fair on an almost 6 year old.

I had a GSD female that was given OFA Good hips at 8 years.

Nope, must be a myth :-)

As everyone else has already stated, OFA has no upper age limit for certification. If a 3 year old doesn't pass, it is because it has HD (or the xray quality was poor), not because of its age.

ok, thank you everyone for your answers! I was wondering if the myth was true and you have debunked the myth...lol...Thank you!

My female received an OFA Excellent at 56 months , Normal Elbows ad Penn Hip over 90th%.. Von Dawn's Leisel

Probably. they put a dog with excellent hips as good and a dog with fair hips as good.

Is it o.k. To show in an email your OFA papers?

Do you mean your OFA rating certificate? Unless you specifically made your results private when filling out your paperwork for OFA, the results are online and can be retrieved by anyone with the dog's registered name or registration number I believe.
