Well Chuffy..... you simply must join the GSD crowd! it is the best around!!!
Xeph your post on the American line GSD and HD was excellent. When I had Kayos' hips xrayed and found she was dysplastic I asked the ortho vet that very question as I had many tell me it was because she was American and they are very angulated. Vet said no, the rear angulation has nothign to do with the formation of the hip socket or head of the femur. And if it was because they were GSD's that would not explain the higher incidence of HD in goldens and labs which have no angulation.
Good to run into you over here.
