Description

Horses and other large animals have a completely different set of needs when it comes to their orthopedic health. Their orthopedic requirements are simply on a much more considerable scale. Orthotics for larger animals are becoming more and more important in the animal industry.  Specialized Pet Solutions seeks to address those needs to ensure large animal health can be effectively maintained.

 

Our horse brace and large animal braces are created using only the highest quality orthotic material and built for your specific animal.  The custom horse brace and other farm animal braces will help your animal lead a more active normal lifestyle while supporting their affected limbs/hooves.  Farm animal and horse braces can be used for various ailments and injury such as congenital defects or trauma.  Please have your veterinarian diagnose your animal so we are able to determine the best possible device for your animal. Our goal is to help your horse or large farm animal to live their best life.  Our orthotics help these animals recover from their injury and/or stabilize the area so they can be as functional as possible.

Once you order your device Specialized Pet Solutions will mail out a casting kit.  Once you receive this casting kit watch the video on our Youtube channel or in the link on the product  page of our website on how to cast an animal.  It is helpful to watch the video prior to casting as it allows you a visual of the process and will aid in gathering the necessary materials needed to do the cast.  If you are uncertain about doing the casting yourself, your veterinarian can also do it for you (they’re fee’s apply).  Once the cast is complete ship it back to us and we will create a mold of your animals limb.  With the mold we create your custom device.  Please allow 5-7 business days for manufacturing.  We will then mail your custom brace to you.

Please be understanding and nurturing while your pet acclimates to this new tool. All animals treat braces differently and adjust accordingly.

Animal wellness is our top priority and we offer a 5% discount to any animal shelter or sanctuary.  Our prices start at $795, price is determined by size and difficulty.  Please call for further information on how we can help your animal today 509-934-0067

eagle

Beauty the Bald Eagle: A poacher shot Beauty, tragically maiming her beak so that she couldn’t eat by herself anymore and was dependent on hand-feeding for survival. After three years a group of volunteers made her a prosthetic beak, which allowed her to grasp food herself and eat properly again. 

mare

Riley the Mare: Infections like the one Riley had, thanks to a contaminated metal plate that was placed in her limb, are so common that it seems to be a given that the horse will just have to be put down. But this quarter horse’s survival of the infection and the use of a prosthetic limb are showing people that this doesn’t have to be the case. Riley’s survival is truly an inspiration to many.

cat

Oscar the Cat: Oscar the cat’s hind legs were severed by a combine harvester while he snoozed in a maize field near his home in Jersey off the mainland of the United Kingdom. A passing cyclist found him and brought him back to his owners; at the time they said he was so covered in blood there was no way they thought he would make it. They got him to an animal hospital known for its pioneering work on the mainland of the UK, and Oscar was given then-unheard-of surgery and fitted with implanted prosthetics. He has been through a few surgeries to ensure the prosthetics are functioning properly and is known as Oscar the Bionic Cat.

These stories are becoming legion, with more and more extraordinary tales of survival and improved quality of life across a larger and larger variety of species all the time. One of the most important considerations, though, must be whether or not a prosthetic will help with improving the animal’s quality of life.

Animal Prostheses and Quality of Life

It’s easy to think that we know what is best for our pet, but it’s important to pay attention to the very real concerns about what a prosthetic will help them gain...and what it will not. A prosthetic isn’t the same as an original limb, no matter how hard we all want it to be. And it’s important to consider your pet’s happiness, possibly in contrast to your own. Your happiness at the thought of your pet successfully using a prosthetic may not be the same as your pet’s, and it’s important that you are able to differentiate between the two.

There are three major considerations to make if you are considering a prosthetic for your pet:

 

  1. Challenges for your pet: Device suspension, device rotation, and occasionally friction pressure sores are all considerations to make in terms of whether or not a prosthetic will do greater harm than good for your pet, by yourself, your vet, and your prosthetist.
  2. Is your pet a good candidate? Certain requirements exist that must be met to make sure that your pet will be comfortable and adapt well to a new limb. 
  3. Make sure you and your vet’s goals are the same: Prosthetics can be made to meet so many goals it is important to ensure you’re on the same page in terms of mobility, type of support, stress, and movement, and other issues that will arise as your pet begins to use their prosthetic. 

 

As always, it is imperative to include your prosthetist in many of these conversations to ensure everyone is on the same page. 

Where Does Specialized Pet Solutions Come In?

As your prosthetist, we will generally communicate primarily with your vet about all of the specifics of the prosthetics. We’ll make sure we discuss everything we’ve discussed above as well as anything more that needs to be discussed in order to determine the right fit for your pet the first time. 

 

We will ship you a casting kit along with everything you need to cast your pet. If you are not comfortable casting your pet, please make an appointment with your veterinarian to assist you in the casting process. Your veterinarian will be involved in this process, so having them cast your pet for you may be a good idea; if they are familiar with your pet and you feel comfortable casting the animal, it isn’t necessary to have the vet do the casting, however.
