Instructions for use

HOW TO WEAR

To apply correctly: open the brace at the elbows, open the front and lower Velcro straps and place the brace on the withers of the dog.

Close the straps around the elbows.

Tightly close the front straps below the dog’s throat.

Now close the lower strap located behind the feet.

The upper straps must be very tightly closed so that the rigid surfaces of the brace correctly compress the shoulders.

Straps at the level of the elbows. If necessary, especially in the post-operative phase and in case of serious pathologies, movement of the front joints can be even further limited by bringing the two elbows closer together, using the internal straps that join them. The safety straps can be closed on themselves if it is unnecessary to bring both elbows together.

Each strap can be adjusted in length depending on the size of your dog. To shorten them it is best to take the end of each strap, detach the Velcro clip, shorten the strap by cutting excess material and then newly applying the Velcro clip.

WHITE BAND KIT
The blue band limits the dog’s movements in the post-operative period. The white band is stretch and helps the dog’s front joints when walking during rehabilitation.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USE

<ulclass=”list”>

During the period of restraint, it is recommended that the dog not be left alone very long because it could try to remove the brace by biting
or scratching it.
The length of all of the straps and closures can be adjusted for a better, tighter fit to the dog (see figure 7).
Do not leave the brace on for an extended period of time: the brace must be worn during the day, especially during physical activity, and it should be removed at night.
