"Ben" Lanteigne

Ben was so unstable with his bilateral tarsus deformity that he could not even climb stairs or get into a vehicle let alone run. From the moment his articulating hock orthoses were in place, Ben started to run. If a dog could smile, Ben was smiling.


"K-9 Orthotics took a young dog that most likely would have been euthanized and gave him a normal life."


Dr. Kim Maillet, Elmwood Veterinary Hospital, Moncton, New Brunswick


"Abby" Wright

Abby injured her Right stifle early in 2005. Enough fibrosis formed to allow her some stability. In December of the same year, she injured her left stifle. Both were now positive for RCC and she could barely ambulate. Surgery was not an option due to her size. A bilateral hip and stifle orthosis has allowed her to return to a normal lifestyle.


"It's great when the client is satisfied with a product, but it"s truly wonderful to see a content patient"


Dr. Kim Maillet, Elmwood Veterinary Hospital, Moncton, New Brunswick


"Noel" Theriault

Noel suffered chronic hip and back discomfort and then injured his right stifle. His normally long hikes were cut very short and exercising always left him lame for days afterwards. With the use of a unilateral orthosis, Noel is once again doing the Fundy Dobson Trail.


"Noel's owners are a mechanical engineer and a physiotherapist. They are very satisfied with his "knee brace" and the freedom it affords him."


Dr. Kim Maillet, Elmwood Veterinary Hospital, Moncton, New Brunswick

Langley - Old English Sheepdog

21 Mar, 2020
Langley had TPLO Surgery in 2017 he had a long recovery. Then in November 2019 his other leg started to show signs of deterioration. I decided that at his age of 10 years old I did not want to put him through another surgery. I went with both legs being braced because I didn't feel like he was stable on the surgery leg as well. I brought Langley in for a fitting and not long after he is wearing his new Stifle Orthosis. I feel at ease knowing that he is more protected from further injury. I have seen a huge improvement. I highly recommend using this service and devices. I am so glad I found Jeff and his Team at K-9 Orthotics. Lisa - Lunenburg, NS

Laika - Old English Sheepdog

21 Mar, 2020
Laika was feeling left out, so we got her a brace too. Actually in December 2019 she fell on some ice and fractured her leg and probably tore her cruciate. Since I already knew how well the braces worked there was no consideration. She got a set of Stifle Orthosis as well. She is doing well and her 14th birthday just passed in January 2020. She will keep the braces on even after the leg heals to keep her safe and secure. Thanks so much Jeff and the K-9 Team!! Repeat customer, Lisa
