Review on 🐾 NeoAlly Dog Back Leg Braces: Enhanced Stability with Dual Metal Spring Inserts for Effective Support, Ideal for Dogs with Injuries, Sprains, Arthritis, ACL (Pair) by Jenn Plata

I would like to give 5 stars. My problem isn't with the product, it's that my poor old pal is just more broken than this product can fix without a little modification. My 13 year old Labrador has hip dysplasia, arthritis, muscle atrophy and couldn't rebuild the knee we did when he was 1 year old. His right leg literally bends the wrong way when he puts weight on it. The stainless steel spring bars in this product flex back and forth so it doesn't fully support his foot problem. The fact that he weighs 105 pounds doesn't help either. But we have a machine shop, so my husband made UHMW inserts shaped to fit his foot. He walks on a straight leg, but can walk far enough to go about his business without his mother having to support him. This fits much better than the human leg brace I used. I hope people don't think I'm cruel, but these old people are happy. He's eating, his tail is working great, and he's able to crawl from the bedroom to the kitchen in an army in 3 seconds when he hears the seal on the fridge door break. I use a sling to get him in and out of the house and hopefully if mom doesn't strain her back he'll be around for a while. I don't know if the manufacturers of this product agree with the change, but it suits us. If your dog just needs some extra support and mobility these are perfect for you.
