Larbradoodles are low-shedding and hypoallergenic, two great traits inherited from their poodle lineage. But are they susceptible to certain health issues?
In an Ortho Dog Brace, it's business as usual! Your pup can go for walks, sniff around and do their doody comfortably. The brace will not interfere with proper elimination.

๐พ Decreased range of motion
๐พ Thick/firm feel of the joint
๐พ Hind leg extension while sitting
๐พ Weight shifted to one side of the body while standing

Meet Jameson and his friend Gus!
Jameson has used his OrthoDog Brace for 6 months is back to normal. His mom reports, "No More Frisbee or excessive jumping is allowed. But he is chasing squirrels, rough-housing with his brother, 2 year old Gus. We tell him in the morning 'time to get dressed' and he knows what that means. No fuss at all with wearing the Brace as he knows it is time to walk and have fun!"
Jameson is Pet Therapy Dog who visits a local Nursing Facility twice monthly. The residents love him! ๐พ ๐ ๐
Thank You OrthoDog! We highly recommend your Brace.

Ortho Dog offers a Dual Cruciate Care Knee Brace for pups suffering from recent/acute CCL tears in both knees! ๐ ๐พ
We only recommend bracing both legs if there are current bilateral tears in both knees. Bracing both legs can makes ambulation more difficult, since bracing limits flexion and extension in the knee. For a dog with acute bilateral injuries, this is absolutely beneficial!
But, if your dog doesnโt have acute bilateral injuries, bracing both knees can make adapting to wearing a brace more challenging. Our brace is unique in that when the injured knee is braced, it takes pressure off of the other leg.

Our Story
Ortho Dog was created by two womenโa massage therapist and a chiropractorโwith a profound, shared love for dogs.
โWhen our best friends, Spirit and Zoie, needed help for wrist pain and limping, we couldn't find it. Wanting our dogs to be able to run, play, walk and hike with us again, we put together our knowledge of anatomy and musculature and brainstormed a hopeful solution.
Elizabeth designed the first brace, the Wrist Wrap, then refined and refined it until it worked. Next, we designed the Hip Hound to aid our many dog friends who experienced hip pain. Once successful, we tested the braces on friend's dogs and then followed up with veterinarian consultations.
We are proud to introduce our Ortho Dog orthopedic braces, to help restore the joy of pain-free activity for your beloved dog companion. Our braces were developed out of our love of dogs and our work in chiropractic care and massage therapy. It has been an exciting, learning and gratifying process.โ
Now 16 years later, Ortho Dog remains a small group of individuals dedicated to improving the lives of our canine companions. We offer an affordable alternative to surgery for dogs with a torn ACL, as well as stability and support for the hock and wrist joints. Our Hip Hound brace helps decrease pain and inflammation in dogs with hip dysplasia or low back weakness.
Our products are locally sewn in Asheville, NC. We sell all of our products online, and ship internationally. If your dog is suffering from joint pain, check out our site or contact us today.
