Brace and Cart Fittings

 
 

Choosing the right brace or cart for your disabled pet can be very overwhelming. There are many options and getting the right measurements and a proper fit is essential. Here at ARC, our therapist will assess your pet to determine the right brace or cart to fit your pets needs. We will then do all of the measurements, ordering, and fittings so that you know you are getting a quality product designed to optimize your pet's function. We work with numerous companies to obtain either a pre-fabricated or custom product.  If you believe that your pet could benefit from a brace or cart, please contact your veterinarian for a referral or contact us for more information.
