Break in Period:

- Check the edges of the prosthesis to ensure that there is no pinching or digging into the body.
- Start with a short controlled walk the first day.
- Increase the wear time everyday after that for 30-45 minutes a day up to 2 week. During the break in period help assist your pet master the stairs and any other obstacles you may have in
your daily routine. - After the 2 week break in period you can leave the prosthetic on during the day and off at night.
- Inspect your pet's skin/hair after each use to ensure there is no irritation or redness and/or hair loss.
Care:
Wipe down after each use with an antibacterial wipe or warm soap water. Dirt causes irritation and friction, so the cleaner the better.
Materials:
- Outer Shell: polypropylene, polyethylene, co-polymer
- Inner Liner: closed-cell polyethylene foam
Casting Tips:
When casting for a prosthetic it is important that you capture the distal end of the stump. The best way to do that is to keep the cut strip above the distal end of the stump about ½ of an inch, this will help allow you to capture the distal end in full.
If you have any concerns please send pictures and videos to care@aocpet.com.

This prosthetic has changed Olaf’s life. After having sepsis and losing a hind leg and all of his toes on his other hind leg, he couldn’t even walk. He is an active pup that loves to play with other dogs and was always so sad watching him try to run on his two front legs. This prosthetic has helped him enjoy life more and now he can run with the rest of the dogs, swim, and even goes on nature trails. He is so much happier and so thankful for this company for making this happen for him!
The company offered a great service. After trying a week, we noticed the prosthetic needed some adjustments. We contacted the company. They responded immediately. We especially wanted to thank Angela Boncz for her wonderful service. After she made the adjustment, she sent back the prosthetic second day. Thank you! Angela. The prosthetic changed my dog's life. She wears it everyday, running and chasing squirrels. No words can express our thanks to Animal Ortho Care.
The product arrived well packaged and fits her well. She is adjusting to it, but I do think some alterations are necessary not sure how to describe it in the return form. I would be willing to drive from New York for an in person consultation to see how to better fit her prosthetic.
uses it when she walks the dog works great and ginger rolls on her side to have it put on
OUR DOG HAS NEW LIFE. This company blows me away. So diligent. So caring. Such passion to help our beloved animals. And RESPONSIVE. And more than fair/generous. We started with the Endurance brace and struggled with the fit at first. When we were getting close we broke it while molding/adjusting it. (Glenn "held our hand" along the way with advice.) We received the Performance brace AT NO CHARGE and tried it out. It's simple as pie to put on. Our chocolate lab, Rocky (11 years old), has regained strength, endurance and, most of all, he has his "happy" back. OK, he's a lab. He has his "happier" back. We're so grateful to Glenn and Animal Ortho Care for helping us so patiently -- not to mention their fine products. We're definite disciples!
