OFA & PennHIP

The Orthoapedic Foundation of America (OFA) and PennHip have been helping breeders diagnose and detect hip dysplasia for years.

By completing these highly recommended screening tests, an owner will know if 1. their animal has hip dysplasia and 2. the likelihood of passing these diseases along when breeding your animal.

Dr. Glew is one of the few licenced PennHip practioneers in Quebec.
