The left hip is not perfect. Otherwise, very good.

They should at least pass but positioning could be better for both.

The right hip is not perfect but still suitable, and the left hip seems to be dysplastic, to a sorrow. I think the dog would get D grade according to the FCI Hip evaluation system, the same as A4 in SV.

The Left hip and the Left elbow look off, don't know if it is the film or position

I don't think the elbows are in the correct flexed position, I can't read elbows anyway but the films on my girl are way more flexed. The hips, the left does look a bit funny, the neck looks thick but I think you may get a fair.

The pictures are fuzzy, I took them with my digital camera.
How about these? What do you think?

The second film is very clear. the left position position looks good. may be due to the angle, the film depicts, people say its dysplastic. but IMO both hips look good

cheers

positioning is incorrect for OFA x-rays - especially the elbows - you should use a vet whose techs know how to position correctly before you pay them for taking OFA x-rays! Elbows must be flexed, knees must be rotated in or straight. OFA website has clear information on positioning and it's also right there on the OFA forms for the vets to read.

hips look ok to me.

The sockets could be deeper, but I think she'll get a passing grade, as the ball is well-seated in the socket.
