That is the same in Holland. But I’ll speak about this in health committee of the club. Maybe we can suggest owners to make HD and ED in the same time. And later on it is maybe possible to make this a condition for breeding dogs.
About HD judgement in Holland:
Only a group veterinarians who have agreement of the RVBH (
Dutch kennelclub who gives pedigrees) can make the official HD X-rays.
Then a committee of specialists of RVBH, judges the x rays and the owner receives the results from them in a certificate.
On the official certificate is not only the End result of A,B,C aso.
But also these marks:
Bone deviation
Norberg value
Insufficient connection or Bad connection
Shape change
An then Final: …. Conform international FCI standard
But the number of the Noberg value is difficult to compare with numbers in other countries!
For example:
In Holland: the number of the Norberg Vallue is count by left hip number + right hip number
In Belgium: the number of Norberg Value is the ranking in % comparing with other dogs of that breed! (when a dogs has NW 30 it means: 29 dogs have worse NW results and 70 dogs have better NW results. So the average NW will be 50)
