Well if you'd read the other links you'd have read that pure breed are much more likely to suffer from it

Yep... because more pedigrees are tested and therefore diagnosed at an earlier date!

I can think of only two reasons you would not have had this done - one is money and the other ignorance - however - whats done is done - and I hope you don't do it again, at least without looking into it in more depth first.

Possibly a vain hope - but I like to be optimistic!
Thanks for ignoring the rest of my post btw

The site is american, they do things differently to us, their breeds are different to ours...an american bred english setter bears little resemblance to the English version, it is more overdone, heavier in coat with a totally different tailset and weird movement...I only trust the BVA and what they tell me, if they say my dog should be hip scored then so be it.

@Tassle I provided you with OFA statistics, they clearly show springer and collies to be one of the most tested

I agree, but as a reference it is not without merit
