My poor kitty is almost 16vyears old and his left hip splays when hecwalks. These braces are very easy to put on and off and support his legs really well. He can walk much more easily. We have hardwood floors, so we have him wear kitty traction socks as well.
She loves them! Immediately after putting these on her, she did a funny walk, then ran, then jumped on the couch. She feels unstoppable. She is 14 years young.Size small, shes 18 lbs
I NEVER leave a review unless I 100% trust the product.My senior 13-year-old rat terrier had IVS and wasn’t the same after that. Her legs couldn’t hold her. I got her this, and she’s a new dog -more like her old younger self, jumping and walking like normal. She was also able to get used to it within minutes.Great quality, fit was perfect for a 10lbs dog (I got the small), easy to take off and put on, no metal wires or anything that could hurt the dog, they open and are 100% flat, easy to take anywhere, and tbh I haven’t felt okay with leaving my baby alone bc she’s been hurting herself and after this I KNOW she’s safe.I 100% recommend this product.

I was surprised to find that this would fit my 6 pound Pomeranian, but it does! My dog has the tiniest little legs so I was really surprised. Of course they were Velcro tightest allowed that they could be but they fit! I was also concerned that they wouldn’t stay put on his leg, that they would slide down and they seem to be doing a fairly good job of staying where the opening is for the kneecap. If you feel the kneecap it is in the hole where it is meant to be. I saw a lot of other reviews where it seemed to work pretty much right away and unfortunately for me he is still limping on the leg. It could also be that this mechanism is uncomfortable for him and he will need time to get used to it. I noticed that he still would only hobble on his good leg, so I ended up adding the brace to that leg as well, so that his favored leg doesn’t start to bother him. So basically he’s walking around with braces on both back legs right now and he seems to be doing an OK job. I would say a little less limping. I will change my review in a week or so after if hopefully I see positive results. If he continues to limp on the leg and not use it even with the brace, I probably won’t continue using them.
Maybe they were too short or didn't really have those support frames like the ones for humans do.It seems that my dog Blanket had a more difficult time walking or maybe she was afraid of tripping.I wouldn't put them that tight sometimes because I was afraid of cutting her circulation to thr legs.I really tried to make them work. She was my remaining fur baby. OReo, her partner had passed a few days ago. We tried going for very light light walks but she would still trip and fall. Like that braces were stabilizing her legs. I tried a size up and nothing. I played with how tight they needed to be and no results. I gave her legs massages before putting on the braces and nothing.She ended up passing a june 1st exactly two weeks aftee her partner.I wish these braces would have worked so she would have at least walked better the last few days she had. I was kinda disappointed with the results. I was gonna return them but the return window passed and then I thought that those braces were probably one of the things she last wore or touched. I have mixed thoughts. On one size I have spent 1500 dollars at three different vets clinics and hospitals trying to improve both my pets health and I'll be real, I need the money, even minimal but I the same time I wanna keep those braces and put them in a nice box with her leash, water and food bowls, her toys and little outfits and a portrait of her and Oreo as well.I do tend to get attached to material things after they're going.I know I lost the chance of returning it as it did not improve Blanket's health but I'll just keep them because they were the last thing she wore on thar sad day..Sorry,, DiegoR.I.P. Oreo & Blanket
