Ortocanis Dog Knee Brace for Hind Leg Support – (XL, Right Leg)

After looking at all the braces online, and trying one that was an xx small, and turned out to be too big, I found Ortho Canis.Wonderful! They carry a x-mini, which fit my little Yorkie perfect.I'm happy to say she is now putting some weight on her leg with it.I did have to do some rigging with it, since she doesn't have much of a rear, and it kept falling off. I took one of her harness's and a velcro strip and rigged it so it won't slip on her rear end anymore. (See photos) It may not be that pretty but it works.Now it's fitting her right, and she seems to be improving. Hope the Vet thinks so when he see's her on Tues.If you have a tiny Yorkie or other T-cup size dog, don't be afraid to try this brace, 98% of time it will most likely fit.Thank you Ortho CanisA tip for putting it on. fold the brace down, so when you go to put your dogs foot in it, it's easier to get it through the opening, and in turn you won't be pushing on your dogs leg.

Great idea but impossible to keep it in proper position. Way too expen$ive but you pay the cost because it's your beloved dog and hope for the best. Unfortunately, the pet industry is very much aware of this... sigh*

Not for male dogs. This product will likely work ok for a female dog. I do not have problems with it slipping down and the fit is fine. However, on my male dogs the strap runs right across his sheath and rubs him completely raw. I’ve used it quite a bit and I think it helps a little but it is just a neoprene sleeve. There are no support bars or anything in it.

My dog (11 year old 70 pound shepherd mix) tore his ACL. We're opting for surgery but need to wait 2-3 weeks. I got this brace to help him get around with less discomfort and wobbling, and to help him pee and poop which he's having trouble with.I got the large size and I have to say the fit is about perfect. I measured per the instructions before buying. His rear hips are a little higher than his front shoulders, which is unusual for a shepherd breed dog (I think he has some boxer and/or retriever), and this helps the cross-strap stay in place. Even so it doesn't stay super well. He only wears the brace for short periods, if he wore it longer i would put a collar or shoulder harness on him and attach the cross strap of the brace to that with string or stretchy material. If your dog's rear end slopes down you're definitely going to need something like this to keep the brace on.The brace is a kind of stiff neoprene material, it reduces the range of motion of his knee which I think is a good thing, but there are no metal or rigid parts to give structural support. I think it is a good temporary solution to help before and maybe after surgery but I don't think it is sturdy enough to replace surgery or be used long term. Just my opinion, I'm not a vet or anything.

Very happy with this knee brace. We ordered a medium and returned for a large (I didn't take measurements). Our dog is 5, 60lbs and has a hind leg injury. She was limping and the vet performed a physical exam and examined signs that she had a possible CCL tear or a partial tear. A few days later she ran and the injury got worse (possibly went from partial tear to full tear). The vet said it could also be osteoarthritis. But we still don't know for sure what her actual injury is. I wanted to get a brace that would at least help hold her leg up while we figure out our options. It was retracted and she was limping/ toe touching to get around. I was actually surprised when I put this brace on it seemed to be helping her actually walk and use her leg and apply a little more than toe touching. It did cause her to walk slower but is helping her be more steady and seems less of a struggle compared to her walking without the brace.The brace seems to remain in place pretty well during many transitions. She is tall and thin.I will not say this is a cure for any hind leg injuries but I am happy its serving as an aid while we hope for her to naturally heal.Since we don't know the exact injury, this brace was an affordable option to try. Some of the braces seem more structured and target specific injuries. I was nervous to spend more money without knowing the exact injury and potentially make the injury worse.I think this knee brace will help us get through the next few weeks and see if things heal on their own.

Not pleased with product. Very little support. Dog tolerates it but doesn't really help much. Higher priced than other similar products and then it tries to sell you a strap that helps hold it on better for additional $33. Not worth it in my opinion.

I think it would’ve been really good if I didn’t have a short pitbull type dog. He’s got a thick chunky thigh but a shorter leg so I was sad. I think it would’ve been a comfortable brace for him if he had had a longer leg

I bought this for my 8 pound Chihuahua that has patella luxation, (where his kneecap pops out). I received the item and it is so cheaply made. There’s no way this is worth what they charge, I can buy that piece of Neoprene Material for about five bucks and make it myself. The sewing on it is bad and missing some of the bias tape. A beginner at sewing could make this.I measures Davie Jones 3 times to make sure I got the right size, according to their chart he needed a xxxs, it’s too small to fit all the way up his leg.The Velcro strap around his belly, cuts into the other groin, not tightly, but in order for it to stay on, that’s where the strap goes.Wrapping his leg with an ace bandage would work better.I’m extremely disappointed and would not recommend this.
