WHAT IS IT FOR?
The BT BONE brace can be used as an external support for front-leg fractures, including injuries involving the radius and ulna or the radiocarpal region, according to veterinary guidance.
It comes with three rigid splints – one fixed splint contained in a pocket on the center back and two side splints with Velcro backing which allows them to be positioned as needed for optimum effectiveness.
The splints are designed to provide support and stabilization of the fractured limb during the period prescribed by your veterinarian.
The brace is designed for daily use, thanks to the breathable fabric that prevents blisters and sores caused by sweating.
When using the BT Bone brace, we recommend combining it with the BT Joint (on the other leg), because its use on the healthy joint will help the dog compensate better for the added load caused by the loss of use of the fractured leg.
Once the brace has been placed around the dog’s leg, it is not necessary that the two white-trimmed edges meet, since the closure of the brace is by means of the blue straps and stabilization is provided by the three splints contained in the brace.
