OFA Certification. We purchased our dogs as puppies and verified at the time of our purchase that the puppies' parents were OFA certified clear of hip dysplasia. At 2 years of age, our dogs (both sires and dams) are OFA certified.
Many health test records can be verified online. See the following links:
Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) - maintains searchable database of health certification results (note: OFA offers the storage of a variety of test results as a service so that these results can be centralized. To be included, the dog owner/breeder must submit these results to OFA. Therefore, for non-orthopedic tests, absence of a record with OFA does not mean the test was not performed. However, QualityDogs.com recommends the submission of all test results to OFA so that these results may be verified in a centralized location.)
