PennHIP: (University of Pennsylvania Hip Improvement Program) PennHip is a multifaceted radiographic technology Xray that can be used in dogs or puppies as young as 4 months of age

Here is an example of a hip xray for our Skip vom Kottersbusch. These are rated A1 which is the highest German hip rating. Through generations of hip certified German Shepherds the risk of crippling hip dysplacia is greatly reduced. OFA, SV, or Penn Hip certified parents produce better hips in their puppies.
