Bokezu Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Wanting to know if there is a chart to tell you what scores are graded A, B, C etc For instance a friends dog scores just came back she got elbows 0:0 hips 2:2 this is graded Aus Grade 0 International Grade A My boys came back a few weeks ago elbows 0:0 hips 3:1 this is graded Aus Grade 1 Internatinal Grade B so I'm thinking the cut off for grade A must be 2:2 Wondered if there was AVA Hip Score chart to reflect what the different readings equal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Lolapalooza* Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 I think it all depends on where in the hip they get the points. I 'think' the more on sublux the higher the Alphabet Grade but Im sure someone can explain waaaay better than me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bokezu Posted October 16, 2010 Author Share Posted October 16, 2010 just got told that to get a grading of "A" no single hip can be over 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancinbcs Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 just got told that to get a grading of "A" no single hip can be over 2. And no more than 1 on any particular point. So a dog that is 0:2 will not have an A grade if the 2 is on the same point, but a dog with 2:2 can be an A grade if the scores are distibuted on two different points on each hip. All very confusing and not very helpful. Most breeders I know take no notice of the grades and just worry about the scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shortstep Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 OFA FCI (European) BVA (UK/Australia) Excellent A-1 0-4 (no > 3/hip) Good A-2 5-10 (no > 6/hip) Fair B-1 11-18 Borderline B-2 19-25 Mild C 26-35 Moderate D 36-50 Severe E 51-106 The new system for FCI only has A B C D E, so you can combine A1 and A2, and combine B1 and B2.
