Animal Tech devices can be used in water!

Our devices are often paired with a tailored rehab program and water therapy can often be a part of that program. Wearing the orthosis in water can help to stabilise and protect compromised joints.

It is recommended that the brace is removed after use in water. Rinsed and dried before reapplication.

Reach out if you have any questions about your pets brace, use or if you think your pet might need one. [email protected]

✨ Archer ✨

Archer has bilateral Hock Hyperextension. We are helping to manage this conservatively with bilateral hock braces. These are designed to stop the extended movement of the hock joint but allow flexion. These are working well with controlling the position of the joint.
Archer is now working with rehabilitation vet .k9.rehab to manage his complex presentation as a young dog.

Conservative Management for Cruciate Rupture

A stifle brace provides external stability to the stifle (knee) joint. It works by using a four point force system to reduce the tibial thrust that occurs when the cruciate ligament is damaged. These braces are custom made and designed to suit the requirements of each dog as no two dogs are the same!

Stifle bracing is best paired with a rehabilitation program to encourage strength and conditioning as there is often a lot of de conditioning with these presentations.

Nova here is testing out her custom stifle brace for the first time! She is using a brace for a cruciate rupture and is also receiving a personalised rehab program from Victorian Veterinary Rehabilitation Centre

Please reach out to us to discuss stifle bracing for your dog. [email protected]

Did you know we have been working with and providing prosthetic and orthotic services at / in Whittlesea for 8 years!
At Animal Tech we strongly believe to get the best out of any custom prosthetic and orthotic device is to work in a multidisciplinary team for a collaborative approach to your pets healthcare.
We provide monthly visits on a Friday, reach out to us or the VVRC team to organise a consult.

Biggie happy it’s Friday, chilling with his new brace!!

For a young Kelpie, Biggie is very laid back and took wearing his new brace in his stride. He has a custom tarsal hock orthotic with range limitation for the rehab of his partial Achilles tear.
He is closely working with for treatment of this injury.
This brace will allow for gradual increase range of movement at the hock as the Achilles heals.

Achilles Tendon Injury

Penny’s grade 2 Achilles tear is being treated with conservative management. This treatment plan provided by .k9.rehab combines a few treatment modalities:

• Shockwave therapy
• PRP
• Regular reassessments
• Custom orthosis
•. Rehab program with

A custom orthosis is required to immobilise the hock joint to allow the tendon to heal. This orthosis will be jointed with range of flexion movement gradually introduced. The orthosis is easier to manage for Penny’s family and the treating team to remove for regular appointments compared to a splint and bandage.

We have seen great results with this treatment pathway over the years. Even with our own dog Cooper who is back being an active Kelpie!

✨ Lupin ✨

Lupin and his dedicated owners came down from Sydney to ensure he was going to get the best possible fitting braces for his bilateral dropped hocks.
He might be small but very brave giving his custom braces a good test run before heading home.

While Lupin was in Northern Vic he also had a tailored rehabilitation program to assist with brace use and strength from
We believe it is so important to combine the two together to get the best outcome.
Ash and I look forward to being able to combine these two services for some of our clients in northern vic!

Sam standing tall and proud after his first fitting with his prosthesis. He gave it a good first try putting weight on it straight away.

Sam lost his lower leg to cancer and partial amputation with prosthetic management has provided an alternative option to a full leg amputation.
