Hip scores range from 0 to 106 and the lower the score the better. So 0/0 and 7/3 are very good scores. Here is good information on the respective health tests from the UK Kennel Club. https://www.thekennelclub.org.uk/services/public/glossary/health-tests.aspx This will help you in making your decision.
