Custom Dog Knee Brace | CCL/ACL Stifle Rear Leg Dog Brace
Denise Asbury
Best brace ever!!

Our sweet boy had surgery 2 years ago for an ACL tear on his left leg. He did not handle anesthesia very well. This year his right leg needed surgery and at now 10 years old we knew it was not an option. We contacted AOC, received our kit, made a cast and sent it in. A few weeks later our custom brace arrived! Red, white and blue! Loved being able to choose the design. Our sweet Cooper has been on the go ever since! When it’s time to put the brace on, he puts his right leg back. He knows it helps him be mobile. Best decision we have ever made.

Finally!!!

My little lady has the most awkward measurements. Finding a brace to help with her back has been a journey. The Haute Lil Back Bracer actually fits her! She’s a little dog with big dog measurements so nothing was fitting properly until now. I’m so thankful!

Hi Crystal,
This is so wonderful to hear that our brace worked for your little lady! We hope you see improvement with your dog in both support and pain relief the more that the brace is used. Let us know if you have any questions down the line, always happy to help!

Just What My Dog Needed

My dog needed a brace for his right hind leg. The brace he received has worked fantastically thus far. My dog, Kaiser, has been able to enjoy his walks, and he still thinks he's a bullet.

Hi Charles,

We are so happy to hear the brace is working out well for Kaiser! We love that he is able to enjoy his walks again with some extra pep in his step! Please let us know if you ever have any questions about the brace, happy to help!

Gnawty Bites - Joint Flex - Hip & Joint Support with Glucosamine
Charles
Works Great!

My dog suffered a muscle tear in his right hind leg. The brace fits him well, and he's able to enjoy himself as he runs and walks with a limp.

Hi Charles,

This is great news! Happy to hear your dog is doing better and is loving our Gnawty Bites Joint supplements! We hope he continues to show improvements with his brace and the supplements give him that extra support with his motion and hips. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Please let us know if you ever have any questions, happy to assist!

Best,
AOC
