Maybe it also a suggestion to add in which countries dogs did have their x rays!
And also when they have different results in different countries.
Then it becomes also more clear all the differences between the way judging in several countries!

Because since 1991 the FCI decided that dogs can only have HD x ray in the country where they live and are registered.
And the HD results that they did receive in other countries will not be recognized by most of the kennel clubs.
So only the results of the country where the dog is registered will appear on the pedigree of the dog.

It is a strange rule. Because the more strange is that the same dog can have different results of x rays in 2 different countries!

So I can imagine that some owners make HD x rays in other countries then their own.
And then, the best results are always published here on wolfdog.
And that is why some dogs here have other results then the results that are on the pedigree of their puppies.

It would be nice if all kind of breed clubs also would publish the HD results of dogs that did have x rays in different countries.

Then everybody could see that there are differences in judging between specialists and countries and that it is an unfair and strange FCI rule.
