Add a Photo to your Dog's Record
Enhance your dog’s OFA Record!
The OFA is pleased to add the ability to display a digital photograph on each dog's OFA web page.
The fee for this service is $10. All of the revenues collected (100%) are allocated to the CHIC DNA Repository and used to underwrite DNA extraction and storage fees for dogs with significant inherited diseases. What a great way to proudly display your dog, its health screening results, and support canine health research in the process!
Guidelines and Instruction for Submission of Digital Photographs
We will only accept digital images via direct upload on our website.
Make sure your photo is:

- No larger than 200,000 bytes (200kb)
- Of the specified dog, and of course in good taste
- Is not in violation of any copyright agreements (see note)
We reserve the right to reject any photograph submitted which is not in compliance with these guidelines.
Process

The easiest and fastest way is to have a digital photo of your dog, a web browser, and a credit card. Press the Continue button at the bottom of this page to access the direct file upload menu. You will be asked for your dog’s OFA Application Number (which can be found on all OFA Reports), or the dog’s registration number.
