So my dog has a partially torn cruciate ligament. We're gonna get surgery, but until then I'm icing his knee every night and I'm looking for some kind of brace he can wear during the day.
I saw this on amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Back-Track-8-6-Inch-Therapeutic-Adjustable/dp/B00BZOODQW/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1452654737&sr=8-4&keywords=dog+knee+brace
That goes on the dog's hock, not the knee. Does having a brace on the hock help the knee at all? I would think not, but people in the reviews talked about their dogs having bad knees and acl tears (and one person specifically mentioned a partially torn cruciate ligament).
Other than that question, does anyone here recommend this or any other leg/knee braces for dogs? I've got a 78 pound pitbull by the way.
I also saw this one:
http://www.amazon.com/Kruuse-Rehab-Left-Protector-Large/dp/B00Z0U9VA0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1452655305&sr=8-1&keywords=dog+knee+brace
But it has some bad reviews and the shipping says it apparently wouldn't arrive until the end of february
