Why an OFA FAIR hip rating does not concern me

Fillyone, I would not expect them to change for the worse, and I would be perfectly happy with good ratings.

If this litter conforms to the current statistical averages for Rottweilers I could expect 1 or 2 not to get a normal hip rating, and 3-4 not to get a normal elbow rating.

The good news is that all puppies are sound, never had any growing limpies or gimpies, and show no signs of issues approaching 2 years of age.

It will be very interesting to see how the cards finally fall in a few months.
