Powell Veterinary Service is excited to announce that it now offers OFA testing in Greeley, CO. This service is aimed at supporting the health of pets and promoting responsible breeding practices within the community. With OFA testing, pet owners and breeders can gain valuable insights into their pets’ genetic health, helping to prevent the transmission of hereditary conditions and ensuring the long-term well-being of future generations.
OFA testing focuses on identifying hereditary issues such as hip and elbow dysplasia, which are common in many dog breeds. By performing these tests, Powell Veterinary Service aims to assist breeders in making informed decisions, improving the overall health of breeding lines, and reducing the prevalence of genetic disorders. This commitment to responsible breeding is in line with the clinic’s broader mission to support pet health at every stage of life.
Mark H. Powell DVM, President of Powell Veterinary Service, shared his enthusiasm for the new offering. "OFA testing is a critical tool for breeders who are committed to maintaining the health and vitality of their animals. By providing this service, we are not only helping breeders but also supporting the long-term health of pets in our community. We are proud to offer this testing as part of our commitment to excellence in veterinary care."

OFA testing is a key component of responsible breeding practices.

In addition to supporting breeders, Powell Veterinary Service’s OFA testing services are also available to individual pet owners who wish to better understand their pets’ genetic health.
