Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | Yorkie with prosthetic leg I recently learned about this company, Ortho Pets. A lot of people are raving about their new knee brace for dogs that would otherwise require surgery for ACL injuries, etc. OrthoPets: Orthotic Brace or Prosthetic Device for Dog or Animal, including Stifle, Hock, Carpus, Elbow, Knee, Wrist, Ankle, or Paw While on the site, I stumbled on this cool video of a Yorkie with a prosthetic leg. Amazing.

Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | Thanks for checking in, Lou! Eddie's doing great. If you didn't know it, you'd never know he was hurt. Vet wants him on limited activity for another couple weeks. Full activity, i.e., unrestricted play with Jillie, is still a couple months off. The two of them are pushing the limits on that one.
