I sent in results to OFA for a dog of mine that did not pass their cardiac exam. I know the dog won't receive a certificate, BUT my question is "Shouldn't the negative results still be posted online?" I initialed the area that said initial so that affected results will be available for the public view.

The only thing I can think of, is the dog was not dopplered, just checked by a cardio. so all that was sent in was that the dog had a murmur. Maybe if I have the doppler done and know exactly what the problem is then they will post results online???

I thought they posted everything. BUT a murmur is not a failed test. IMO. The only way to know if it is NOT an innocent murmur is by the echo. So I would think they would have posted something about a murmur or something but without a echo, I wouldn't say they would post a failing test with out the echo. JMO

If I may ask? Why did or would you post a result of a exam with out an echo or knowing if it is a innocent Murmur?? Maybe you confused OFA.LOL

Maybe I did confuse them. LOL I just sent the results in because it's a neutered dog that I'm sure no one has ever heard of the breeder so it won't *beep* off any breeders. In the spring I will still have the echo test done. I guess I will find out when I have the echo test done and send those results in.

Ok the results finally did show up in the OFA online database, and what it says now is abnormal cardiac results, found by a cardiologist.

When I have his Echo done maybe we will find good news. Then if that is the case I know OFA fixes it in the database, so I'm not worried any. Just thought I would post my findings.
