How a Dog Knee Brace Can Help Heal an ACL Injury or Luxating Patella

Posted by Noah D. on

 

When your dog is injured, it’s rough on both you and your pup. There are few things worse than seeing a pet suffer and being unable to explain it to them. Leg injuries are especially difficult, since most dogs love to run around and play!

 

Common Types of Dog Leg Injuries

Unfortunately, leg problems like ACL injuries and luxating patella are all too common among pups of all shapes and sizes. If your dog is showing signs of these leg injuries, you need to do everything you can to help them heal quickly so they can get back to their happy, tail-wagging self.

 

What is a Dog ACL Injury?

Dog ACL injuries occur when a dog tears a ligament in its knee. Many things can cause ACL injuries. For example, when a dog is overweight, it leads to strained ligaments that may eventually cause a dog ACL injury. It can also be caused by overexertion—for example, if your dog isn’t used to strenuous exercise and they play a little too hard at the dog park, it can quickly cause an ACL issue. As your dog ages, they become more prone to these injuries.

 

What is a Luxating Patella?

Luxating patella is another injury that’s common for dogs. A dog luxating patella is a dislocated kneecap. A dog can be born predisposed to this condition. Ligament ruptures, excessive exercise, and even poor nutrition can also cause a luxating patella for your dog. This type of injury is common in smaller dog breeds, though it can happen to any breed. It often occurs in young dogs and even puppies.

 

How to Treat Dog Leg Injuries

It’s important to notice the early warning signs of an injury and act quickly before more damage is done. If you notice swelling, painful movement, or any other symptoms of an injury, take them to the vet for a checkup! Thankfully, there are ways to help your furry friend when they’re injured.

 

Schedule a Leg Surgery

For either of these leg injuries, surgery is always an option, but it’s not the one you necessarily want to resort to right away. It’s expensive, stressful for all parties, and can even cause further complications. As their pet parent, you hate to see your dog go through such a difficult procedure that may not even help.

 

Try a Dog Knee Brace

For a simpler and more affordable solution, you can use a dog knee brace to help your pet heal from an ACL injury or luxating patella. You might be able to bypass surgery if the problem isn’t too severe. You’ll save yourself a lot of money and save your dog a lot of pain and stress.

 

A dog knee brace provides support and enables your dog to resume its active lifestyle. These braces are suitable for dogs of all ages, and they are lightweight, so your pet will never feel weighed down or uncomfortable. Even if a luxating patella or ACL injury has progressed, a dog knee brace can still help your dog feel like a dog again!

 

At Labra, we offer two sizes of dog knee brace to suit different dog breeds. You can select either a left or right dog knee brace to get just the right fit. This product is veterinarian-approved, so you can feel confident in its safety. You don’t even have to wait for a prescription, though it’s always a good idea to consult with your dog’s vet.
