| The age will effect the rating the same as the difference in his hips between the age of 2 and 5. If your dog's hips changes were very, very slight then the rating should be the same. However if your dog's hips changed to any degree then it would change the rating.
I have brought in Imports that I have had Xrayed 4 and 5 years of age. They recieved the exact same rating they had at the age of 18 months in Europe. The theory is the hips should rate the same, but outside factors to come into play such as trama. This is a case by case situation. I do believe that 85% of dogs would rate the same. |
