Sad to say, I can't really shed any light on the matter when it comes to
Pyrs in Aust.  As far as I can tell, Hip x-raying is not widely practiced
among Pyr people here.  At least soundness does not seem to be something
that is discussed too openly in regards to the Pyr population as a whole.
Still some of that 'I don't have a problem, so I don't need to' attitude in
some quarters?  Others may be hip-scoring but not 'advertising' the scores
for fear of recriminations etc? A bit of a blank page when it comes to info
in this quarter! At least as far as I am aware anyway.
