Never used

Unfortunately I never got to use it. Dog needed surgery. Spent $800 for nothing.

Hi Amy,

We are so sorry to hear that your dog didn't get to use the brace! We hope the surgery and recovery went well for your dog. If you notice your dog's leg weakening or is struggling with any arthritis due to surgery, the brace can always be used as extra support. Please let us know if you ever have any questions, happy to help!
