The Tailwind Hinged Dog Knee Brace is the perfect product that helps and supports dogs with limping and joint pain. The Dog Leg Brace immobilizes the lateral displacement of the knee and compensates loss of joint functionality.It is useful in reducing pain in cases of arthritis, cruciate ligament injury, meniscus injury, kneecap problems, luxating patella and tendinitis. See the complete description, reviews and sizing below.

Some dogs have anatomically dropped hips, which can cause the upper strap of the knee brace to slide backwards. To prevent this from happening, we developed a Connection Belt which we recommend to buy with your Knee Brace.

Important notes.

  • If you are in-between sizes, go for a smaller size
  • If you don't have a tape measure, you can use a string and then a ruler to determine the length.
  • Because the brace is made of a stretchy neoprene, your measurement should be a SNUG fit, rather than a loose fit

    Description

    Improve your dogs quality of life tremendously with a Tailwind Hinged Knee Brace for Dogs.  #vetapproved

    If your dog experiences pain when walking or has joint issues, our hinged dog knee brace hind leg support will relieve stress and support your dogs knee. It immobilizes the lateral displacement of the knee and compensates loss of joint functionality.

    Useful for reducing pain in cases of osteoarthritis, cruciate ligament injury, meniscus injury, kneecap problems, luxating patella and tendinitis

     

    Why your dog should wear a Tailwind Knee Brace:

    It helps with limping and general joint pain and can make your dog's life easier.

    By using our dog acl brace, swelling and pain can be reduced because of the distribution of balance between the different muscle groups. Since the muscles will untighten, your dogs knee flexibility will improve. Furthermore stability can be increased because of the pressure the dog leg support brace applies.

    Our award-winning cruciate care dog knee brace was rated the Nr.1 acl brace for dogs rear leg.

    We have had many customers using our acl dog knee brace for ccl and acl recovery such as for luxating patella as luxating patella dog brace.

    Tailwindpets offers the best dog knee braces and dog acl wraps for your dog.

    This dog leg brace can improve your dog's mobility and speed up the muscles healing process.

      

    Some dogs have anatomically dropped hips, which can cause the upper strap of the knee brace to slide backwards. To prevent this from happening, we developed a Connection Belt which we recommend to buy with your Knee Brace.


    Measurements (Sizing) & Video Tutorial

    Sizing Guide:

    1. Measure the contour of the leg at the groin level (please look at the pictures above for assistance)

       
    2. If you are unsure about two sizes, it is always best to pick the smaller one.

     

    Please indicate the following measurements in the NOTES section if you click on  “VIEW CART” - 

     

    Measurements:

    • Please do all measuring while the dog is standing. Have the dog's leg perpendicular to the torso to create a 90 degree angle at the hip hinge.
       
    • We recommend using a soft measuring tape.
       
    • Measure with a snug fit due to the neoprene being stretchable

     

    See the video below and please write down the following: 

     

    Knee measurement A) Measure around the highest part of the leg. This is usually where the thigh meets the hip near the groin.

    Knee measurement B) Carefully find the middle of the knee cap and measure around the leg.

    Knee measurement C) Find the area 1 inch above the ankle joint and measure around that part of the leg. DO NOT MEASURE AROUND THE ANKLE JOINT.

    Knee measurement D)  Measure the length from the highest point of the thigh (A) to the knee (B). Please place the measuring tape in center of leg like the video.

    Knee Measurement E)  Measure the length from the knee (B) to the area 1 inch about the ankle joint (C). Please place the measuring tape in the center of the leg and go straight down like in the video. DO NOT MEASURE THE WHOLE LEG!

     

     

    Instructions

    How to use
