Hi all, We have an opportunity to adopt a 13 month old field lab. Only issue is her hip score is 8, 1 on the right and 7 on the left. The left norberg angle was 2, subluxation 4 and cranial acetabular edge 1. Right subluxation is 1 so not very balanced. Clearly an issue on the left side. The specialist indicated that she is fine for pet but not suitable for breeding or work assuming work is boarder force or police. We had our first lab pass away last year from a heart attack she was only two and had lots of health issues. We don’t want to go down that path again but also really want to take this lab if the hip scores aren’t a concern. really looking for advice. Torn as to whether we should take her. Could be a long wait though. thanks in advance.
