WHEN A DOG KNEE BRACE IS NOT RECOMMENDED
The Dog Knee brace is a standard size brace that does not fit all dog breeds and sizes. Sizing is based on measurements of your dog's leg. Please take careful measurements of your dog's leg and compare them to our sizing chart. All measurements MUST fall into the same sizing category for a proper fitting brace. If your dog's leg measurements do not fall within the same sizing category and/or suffers from Luxating Patella, we recommend a Custom Dog Knee Brace for the best treatment.
A DOG KNEE BRACE IS COMMONLY REFERRED TO AS A STIFLE OR CCL/ACL BRACE.
BENEFITS OF OUR DOG KNEE BRACE:
Stabilizes and protects the knee following CCL surgery
Allows for small ligament tears to heal without invasive procedures
Improves weight distribution on injured joints
Provides active support during rehabilitation following injury or surgery
Can be used as an alternative to CCL surgery, allowing your dog's knee to heal on its own
Decreases overall recovery time and cost
Allows your dog to return to improved activity level and near-normal joint function
Allows for easier wound inspection
Help to reduce pain associated with injury or chronic pain
Can be used to prevent injuries by relieving stress on the weight bearing uninjured leg. Typically after an injury, your dog will place more weight on the sound leg putting it more at risk for injury.
