Her official hip and elbow results are back and she has a hip score of 1.
ONE.
If you understand hip scoring, youโll know how rare and amazing that is. The current 5 year Golden Retriever breed average is 10.57, with a median of 8. To come back with a total of 1 is exceptional. That is about as low as you can go.
Right hip 1
Left hip 0

Bred from Navey and Kobi, this result means so much to me. It reflects the careful breeding decisions, the research, and the commitment to protecting the structure and health of this beautiful breed.
This is why I health test properly.
This is why I make long term breeding decisions.
There are no shortcuts in responsible breeding. You raise them, test them properly, and then you decide their future.
So incredibly proud of you Elsie girl ๐โจ
