I've noticed a few dogs with hip scores of A & B, and elbows of 0. Is there someplace I can go to see an explanation of the scoring scheme?

All your answers can be found here. Compares the scoring mode of FCI, BVA and OFA.

Forgot: Elbows with a 0-0 FCI score are normal (no changes).
Score 1: Mild changes.
Score 2: Moderate changes.
Score 3: Severe changes.

Well done. Thank you Anki!!

If you look on the back of your OFA certificates it defines the FCI scores.

UK (BVA) hips you would preferably want the pair of numbers to add up to 10 or less. The lower the number the better.

Thank you Anki!
