Cruciate Knee Braces For Dogs

Has you dog recently damaged their cruciate/ knee. Our cruciate braces for dogs are great for support and stability post surgery and pre surgery.as well as for longer term use if you want to conservatively manage the issue. A torn ACL is the most common injury in dogs. This injury requires rest, immobilization and often surgery for repair.

The Cruciate Care Knee brace

Offers therapeutic support and stabilization before and after surgery. It is also useful in cases when surgery is not necessary or feasible. Immobilization of the knee and leg promote reduced pain, inflammation and support during healing. In 60% of cases, a dog with a torn ACL will later injure the other knee. It is our hope that by stabilizing the injured knee as well as balancing the back and hip areas of the dog, further injury can be reduced.

At Zoomadog we have a range of dog cruciate braces

To suit each dog, as what fits one may not suit another. We have splinted braces for a higher level of immobilisation and soft braces for a lighter support. Our unique and original butterfly design of the back anchor support of the knee brace also lends support to the lower back and hip areas to reduce strain from limping. By stabilizing and balancing the rear end of the dog, it may help prevent injury of the other knee or joints. We designed this brace to fit the natural angle of the knee to prevent it from hyper-flexing while still allowing limited mobility. Flexible metal stays on either side of the knee aid in keeping the knee in it's natural position and foam padding at the knee offers a more cushioned support. The brace allows your canine friend to move easily and without strain on the joint.

The Cruciate Care Knee brace is a soft brace, highly adjustable and is appropriate for dogs of all ages.
