| Re: OFA Results
Do you know what caused the rating of DJD1? DJD is a catch all term for non textbook elbows. Two of my current dogs are rated DJD1. I know what caused that rating and I know that the the "issue" that caused the non passing rating doesn't or won't affect the actual working part of the elbow joint. It also is not FCP (fragmented coronoid process), OCD (Osteochondrosis) or UAP (Ununited anconeal process).
Until you know what actually is causing the DJD1 rating, I would not consider the dog breedable. I had a bitch with OFA rated DJD1 elbows. She had FCP, tho the OFA did not check that box. GDC rated her as moderate six months later with incongruent process. Later it was called FCP.
If I were you and you were planning on breeding this dog, I would do my due diligence and make an appointment with an ortho specialist to confirm exactly what is wrong with that elbow. Once you know, you can make intelligent decisions.
