Max - 9 year old Rottweiler

Max is a 9 year old Rottweiler with advanced arthritis due to advanced hip displasia: he was diagnosed at 8 months old.Through the years we struggled with his weight, as he was unable to get sufficient exercise. Every time we took him for a walk that was more than a few minute long, we had to give him an anti-inflammatory drugs for pain.

Then we met Jeff Collins from K-9 Orthotics & Prosthetics, who designed a brace for Max to help the hip bone from popping outward. At first Max was apprehensive, but now when he sees the brace he knows he will be going for a walk, and he enjoys that very much. Max has had the brace for 8 weeks, and has not used drugs for pain since.


Sincerely,


Peacock Family

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 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
