Forms:

    • Please bring a photocopy (or snap a picture with your phone) of your dog’s AKC registration certificate to ensure accuracy when completing the ACA form.

Please note: Certification screenings are done for the purpose of registration with OFA as part of a breed’s CHIC requirements as set forth by the breed’s parent club. These cardiac examinations are not full, in-depth work-ups and are not intended for the purpose of diagnosing the full extent of cardiac disease (if present), nor are these screenings appropriate for animals who are clinically ill or previously diagnosed with cardiac disease. Those animals who fail their OFA cardiac certification screening are strongly recommended to have a full work-up done to set forth an appropriate treatment and follow-up care plan with a board-certified veterinary cardiologist in their area.
