Hey all! I am in search of a carpal support brace for my boy Domino! His rehab vet Dr. Kennedy has recommended a carpal support brace for his remaining right front leg to prevent injury and damage after injuring his shoulder/bicep this past weekend. She recommended either a product from Therapaws or DogLeggs. Below are the links she went over with me.

Therapaws

DogLeggs

Domino is a small/medium dog at about 37lbs. He would wear a small in the Therapaws brand. I'm needing to get something as soon as possible so please let me know if you have a similar type brace or wrap that you aren't using 🙂 Thanks so much! 

Here are a few pictures of Domino, the first is at last weekends Responsible Dog Owner Day, the other is from his rehab appointment yesterday as he got his laser therapy!

Domino had his left front leg amputate on May 13th 2014 after being hit by a car. He's now living a happy healthy life on three legs :)

Oh my dog can you spell ADORABLE? Love these boys!

OK Cassie we'll help get the word out. There's got to be someone with one of these braces in their gear closet.

Thank you for being such a good parent and taking him to Dr. Kennedy. He is so lucky to have an awesome mom like you.

How wonderful - so happy an angel was able to help.  Pofi is actually getting measured for one on Friday...

Lisa, Minneapolis

On October 27, 2016, nearly 6 months after amputation, and 18 months since his cancer likely started, we lost Pofi to a recurrence of Soft Tissue Sarcoma in his spine quite suddenly.  His canine sister also succumbed to cancer on March 1, 2019 - we lavished her with our love in the interim, but life was never quite the same without her only real canine friend. Cliff kitty had to leave us, too, suddenly, in August 2019. Lucia kitty grieved all these losses, but helped us welcome two new Lurchers into our home and our lives, Shae and Barley.
