Innovative Biomechanics of Our Dog Ankle (Tarsus) Braces

The canine ankle (tarsus) is a unique joint susceptible to injury and instability. Tarsal plantigrade collapse, tarsal valgus, tarsal varus, post-op arthrodesis, and neurological presentations are common orthopedic injuries that can affect your pet’s ankle joint and cause pain and lameness. The OrthoPets Tarsus Brace stabilizes your dog’s ankle joint by creating a 3-Point Corrective System. This advanced biomechanical support system stabilizes your dog’s tarsus joint by applying a corrective force location supporting the tarsus joint and two counter force locations that complete the dynamic mechanical environment acting within the OrthoPets Tarsus Brace system.

Dog Ankle (Tarsus) Brace State-of-the-Art Fabrication

Your dog’s ankle brace is manufactured in our state-of-the-art manufacturing center through a digitizing process of the fiberglass impression. The impression is turned into a 3D model that is digitally sculpted to create your dog’s tarsus brace shape. The carved model is vacuum formed with advanced plastics to create the custom made brace. Once the soft medical grade foam liner, adjustable and replaceable straps and pads are added, the device is ready for delivery. The standard fabrication time to build an orthosis is 5-7 business days.

Our Friendly Professional Staff

Our highly trained certified vet-techs work in partnership with you and your veterinarian. We strive to facilitate the best possible experience and outcomes with an OrthoPets device. Our staff is here to assist you and your veterinarian from your initial case discussion, your device delivery day, and follow-up care. Our assistance does not end there.

To begin this exciting journey, the most critical step is the evaluation for your dog’s ankle brace. Your veterinarian will evaluate your pet to determine the diagnosis, treatment options, and complete the brace prescription process.

During this appointment, a fiberglass impression of your pet’s limb is created.

Your veterinarian may need you to order an OrthoPets Fiberglass Impression Kit to create this 3-D replication of your pet’s limb.

You can order the Fiberglass Impression Kit prior to your appointment. The kit contains tools, materials, and documents you will need to submit your case.

Every OrthoPets device is custom fabricated for your pet based on the goals and case specifications provided on the Veterinary Referral Form. Our ankle brace pricing can be found on this page by clicking here.
