Does anyone have information on how long it takes to get the results from the OFA. And if I need to send the results to the AKC or if they (the OFA) forward them?
Thanks. |

IME, it usually takes about 3-4 weeks. You *may* see your results early by checking their website as it might get posted there before you actually receive your results.
You do not have to submit anything to the AKC. It is done by OFA. |

gaawh, flipping jimminey crickets, why didn't you just ask " what is OFA?"
So: What is OFA testing?
OFA is short for the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals. This an organization does testing on canine hips and elbows for specific genetic defects like hip dyslplasia.
Your local veterinarian will know how to register your dog's hips. You will need your dog's registration number when you visit your veterinarian.
Again mods, here is the direct link to AKC http://www.akc.org/about/faq.cfm?page=12
Good Luck everyone! |
