- My dog has a rear limb Knee problem (ACL or Patella). Will an OrthoVet
Splint work for my dog?
No, OrthoVet splints will support the lower limb for the animal but will not go high enough to support the knee on the dog. Look for
www.caninebrace.com or www.woundwear.com in our links page for a
possible alternative.
- My dog seems to fall in-between sizes in your chart, should I order
the larger size?
OrthoVet Splints are a standard size splint and will not
conform to every contour of the animals limb. If the measurement
is not
right on try using the weight information on the sizing chart.
If there is still questions, please give us a call at 866-207-9205.
- Do you make any other splints or braces for larger animals?
We have done some custom bracing for larger
animals but usually refer people to our links page to www.equinebrace.com.
- Can I change or remold the splint with heat?
Yes, you can heat and Flair the plastic away from a problem area
but you can not change the angle of the splint. You
will need a Heat Gun to do any modifications and we always recommend
you call before you try altering the splints.
- Does the splint have any tred or soling on the bottom so the
dog
will not slip?
Yes, the splints have a non-skid soling surface on the bottom.
- Do the splints have any padding inside and can it be cleaned?
Yes, the splints are fully lined with a closed cell foam
that can be washed.
