to health related issues. After Ben was fitted with his custom hock/paw
brace, he was able to walk out of his first fitting appointment and enjoy
some "dog" quality of life.

| Olaf
was hit by a car while still a puppy which caused severe nerve damage
to the hind leg. This resulted in Olaf being unable to lift his paw
along with a unstable hock. With his brace's joint at the paw that lifts
his foot for him and his positioning joint at the hock, Olaf is back
to walking normally. |

This
is Cody. Cody is classified as a spinal walker. He was hit by a car while
he was running and hiding from a lighting storm. Due to his spinal injury,
Cody can not control his paws. His boots are used for several purposes.
The first is for protection. The second is for positioning. Cody’s paws are held at his normal standing
position to prevent flexion contractures. Cody’s boots protect his
paws from cuts and scrapes. We have been working with him for over 2 1/2
years, keeping his boots "made for walking". |
