Product Description
The BT HOCK brace is an innovative and highly effective solution for the treatment and management of hock injuries in dogs. This orthopedic device has been carefully designed to provide support and relief for conditions that cause pain, lameness or difficulty moving in the hock region. The brace is equipped with three pockets that allow the insertion of two rigid lateral splints and an adjustable front splint, thus providing the possibility of completely blocking the hock joint when necessary, for example after surgery or in the presence of neurological problems.
The BT HOCK brace can also be used without splints to deal with less serious pathologies such as arthritis or arthrosis, exploiting the compressive effect of the material to increase blood pressure and temperature in the affected area, thus helping to reduce pain. This brace can also be used as protection for plasters or medicated bandages in case of surgical wounds or bedsores, ensuring a safe and comfortable coverage for the animal during the healing process.
One of the main advantages of the BT HOCK brace is its stabilizing effect, which reduces the load on the joint and contributes to faster functional recovery, while preventing further damage. The tutoring action is essential to improve the work of the ligaments, alleviating pain and facilitating movement. The brace is designed for small dogs, weighing between 5 and 8 kg, and is an essential product for the health and well-being of your pet.
Therapeutic Indications
The BT HOCK brace is recommended for a wide range of conditions affecting the hock of dogs. It is particularly suitable for the treatment of chronic arthritis, osteoarthritis, arthrodesis, osteochondrosis and ligament injuries. Furthermore, it is useful for relieving pain and for any situation in which the veterinarian deems hock immobilization necessary for precautionary purposes. The brace can also be used to protect and contain plasters or medicated bandages, essential in the treatment of surgical wounds or bedsores.
The design of the BT HOCK brace allows you to insert splints to immobilize the joint in the case of severe injury or post-surgery, or use it without splints to provide light support and compression in less severe conditions. The compression exerted by the brace increases blood circulation and temperature in the hock area, providing pain relief and speeding up the healing process. The breathable material and ease of application make this brace an excellent choice for long-term treatment and everyday use.
Composition
The BT HOCK brace is made with high quality materials that ensure durability and comfort. The breathable fabric used to manufacture the brace ensures that the dog's skin remains dry and comfortable, even during prolonged use. The design includes white outlines on a blue base, which not only provides a pleasing aesthetic appearance but also helps to easily identify the brace. The insertable splints are made of rigid but lightweight materials, designed to provide maximum support without weighing the animal down.
Precautions
When using the BT HOCK brace, it is important to follow certain precautions to ensure the safety and comfort of your dog. It is essential to choose the correct brace size based on your pet's weight and consult the size chart provided. During use, it is important to monitor your dog's behavior to ensure that he does not damage the brace by biting or scratching it. Additionally, it is advisable to regularly check the hock area for signs of irritation or discomfort and adjust the brace accordingly. The brace must be washed regularly to maintain hygiene and functionality.
