Full Description

The Balto^® Life relieves pain associated with any degree of hip dysplasia, and allows optional mobility assistance from pet parents. This canine hip dysplasia support brace is a great solution for dogs suffering from limited mobility and motor difficulties following injury, disease, or aging. This breathable compression harness lift, made with non-neoprene material, provides stability and support to your dog's hips without compromising natural movement. The brace also allows for normal elimination. This hind-end brace is an excellent option for dogs in need of additional hip support while maintaining an active lifestyle.

• Alternative to the use of a towel or other household item which is known to cause abdominal injury to pets, or strain to the user supporting
• Post-surgical mobility support
• Complementary treatment option to physical therapy – can be used in combination with hydrotherapy and acupuncture

• Two removable hip padding discs; can be placed on either side of the hips to provide added compression/ stiffness
• The brace can also be used without additional hip padding to adjust for comfort (highly recommended to use padding for best results)
  • Compression helps increase blood flow in the affected area, which helps reduce stiffness, pain, and inflammation
• Adjustable straps can be lengthened or shortened on the leg to ensure an excellent fit around the hind end
• Height-adjustable handles allow a comfortable extension from the brace to the user’s hands.
• Removeable handles for all-day use; even when immobile/resting

Comes in sizes x-small through x-large. To find the best size for your pet, visit the sizing chart here.

All Balto® braces are made from high-quality materials, not neoprene, which is known to: collect bacteria, provide inadequate support, and wear down quickly. A variety of sizes ensure a secure fit. No pinching straps.

Recommended for all ages unless otherwise advised by veterinarians. Apply brace for balanced increments of time, if appropriate, for pets under the age of 2 to prevent possible growth disturbances.
