Labra Dog Rear Leg Hock Joint Compression Wrap - Supportive Brace for Weak Back Legs, ACL Tear, and Joint Discomfort - Adjustable Hind Leg Support for Senior Dogs - Large

This compression wrap was exactly what I needed for my 7-year old Boxer-mix. The velcro is great, almost too sticky, but that is what's needed to keep it on. It's easy to put on my dog, who did NOT like it at first. The first couple of days I put it on somewhat loosely for a half hour at a time so she could get use to it. After a few days I was able to make it a little tighter; she didn't mind having it on and it really helps her walking. This product is not flimsy. When I first opened the package, I thought, "Really?" But I found that it was perfect for my dog. It truly is worth the price, which seemed a little steep at first, but I have decided was a bargain. I was impressed with the packaging. It came with what looks like it is hand written, thanking the customer for choosing their product. They also promise to send you the correct size if it doesn't fit. Cutest of all is a card for your doggie. I find all that to be a great personal touch for a business. We need more who care about their products. Some advice: As one reviewer mentioned, measure your dog's leg and ignore the dog's weight. According to weight she would need a medium wrap but according to measurements she needs a small wrap, which I ordered and it fits perfect. Also, (IMPORTANT) make sure you put the wrap on correctly. If you don't and end up putting it on backwards, it could do more harm. BOTTOM LINE: I highly recommend this product.

I never needed to use this for my dog, but I did put it on him and the Velcro worked great the compression support was very good. It was a little hard to get on him but the design on it was perfect and it’s definitely lightweight. I have a golden retriever that had a little sprained. I put it on for a couple days, but he didn’t really need it after that so I have one on standby just in case.

This hock support is exactly as described, well made and the Velcro is strong. Fits my dog well and she was totally comfortable wearing it. Left it on for several hours initially and no irritation. I could tell from her gait that it is giving her the support she needs on that leg. Very pleased to have found this company and products.

I waited a while before reviewing to make sure it would work, and hold out on such a tough job. (Before leaving comments - Lady is a rescue from a meth house that was using her for a puppy-mill to pay for more drugs. She, along with several other mastiffs were rescued. She and her brother came to our house. We didn't do this to her. We didn't get her and her brother from a breeder. And we don't breed her. We are merely here to make the rescues as comfortable as possible for as long as possible.) Lady has one particularly bad joint that she takes several meds for and they do help with the pain, but not with her leg slipping under while she walks. Her leg was getting worse and we were getting nervous she would have to be put down just because of the one joint (her brother had to be put down early because of severely bad hips that wouldn't hold him any longer.) When we go on walks, her hind leg would slip under her due to weakness, and often times she would fall on her keester. I found this brace - one of the few big enough for her swollen joint and that didn't cost $100's (if I'm not sure it's going to work, I don't want to pay that much). This is definitely doing the trick! Lady is 160 lbs and is now 8'sh. (Mastiff's usually range between 7-9 years.) Mind you it's not stiff, so it won't straighten out the slightly curved in joint/leg, or help with the swollen joint, but the slipping has definitely gotten better - which keeps her walking - which keeps her healthy - which keeps her with us. She can even run a bit with it without tripping on her back leg! I was happy to see her run again. She isn't afraid of the stairs anymore either (we try to keep her off the stairs as much as possible though). I definitely recommend this. If needed, we will purchase more for future rescues. For the price, it's definitely worth it. My only issue is, this was the biggest size and for one of the straps, it's barely hanging on. But, that comes with having a mastiff. And a mastiff with swollen joints. (This probably wouldn't have fit her 200 lbs brother.) The velcro is holding out with daily use, and when she walks through tall grasses and sage. I haven't noticed it getting funky, which is good. She doesn't mind it on her leg and it doesn't rub her raw (which I was worried about). When I say walk, she'll wait to have it put on. Some people were wondering how tight to make it. I just lay it against her and then push the velcro into itself. I don't pull on the velcro to make it tighter and you wouldn't want it slipping around either (or it would rub). Just tight enough to stay put and not slide around. It says it's for support - that's exactly what it does. Don't expect it to do more. Very pleased!

Initially I ordered the medium after measuring and it was way too big. For reference I have a 65 pound 15 year old Golden retriever. She’s very delicate though with a slight build. Not muscular at all. On the mediums the neoprene overlapped and would slip. I couldn’t get it snug. Emailed the owner Noah direct and he helped me figure out sizing so I tried the small instead. It fits almost perfectly. The top two Velcro’s overlap just slightly but the bottom two Velcro’s (below the hock) barely fit. My pup is obviously in between sizes. But the small is working well to support her. I can’t imagine the small fitting any tea cup breed but it all depends on the size of their legs and the thickness. The weight of the dog isn’t really gonna help. It’s how skinny Or muscular the leg is. Here’s some pointers that might help others order: -When you measure be sure you know where the hock joint actually is. It’s just a bit above the ankle. That big bone that sticks out like a knob on the back of the leg. Two of the Velcro’s clasp below that bone and two of the Velcro’s clasp above it. The actual hock joint is not covered by the brace. -Measure with the measuring tape pulled tight. Especially if your dog has lots of hair. The brace has to fit snug or it won’t work. -If your dog has lots of hair I’d suggest wrapping the area lightly with some vet tape or bandages first so the brace stays on better and doesn’t pull the hair. You could even wrap the area and then measure it to give you a better idea. -If you’re not sure about sizing because your dogs legs shape doesn’t fit in the right category email the owner first and ask. He’ll totally help you out. Nicest guy ever. -Don’t leave the braces on too long or overnight. The area needs to breathe and you don’t want those muscles to weaken from lack of use. -It’s much easier to put the braces on when your pup is standing up. I straddled her facing her bum and bent over her to put them on. Tried it with her laying down and once she stood up the brace wasn’t in the right position. Overall this is an excellent brace and it’s really sturdy and well made. I have a different brand of braces for her front legs and they are just plain neoprene. These braces are bite/chew proof. Hope this helps someone else’s pup. Thanks again Noah!

It is just a little too big for our dog. I wish for dogs with shorter legs. I bought the small. Maybe offer an extra small version. Otherwise the quality is great.

My dog sustained a rear hock injury for which my vet recommended purchasing a brace. Researched braces on line and here on Amazon and decided on Labra Extra Supportive brace based upon the company's description of the brace and some glowing reviews of the company's customer service. I carefully measured the dog prior to order. The brace is a light weight nylon (no padding) with adjustable velcro straps, which probably provides some light support but not what I would consider "extra supportive". However figured something was better than nothing, but unfortunately the brace (despite being the correct size) within about 4 days of off and on use rubbed a significant wound on the top of my dog's hock. I contacted Labra's customer service via email to see if they might advise on how to pad the brace to stop the rubbing. Noah the owner replied within two days, indicating that I should stop any use of the brace and he would send me a different type of brace that had a larger hock opening and more adjustability to try out free of charge. Noah wrote the new brace would be sent asap. Have to say at that moment I was pretty impressed by the care and responsiveness of the company! However, a month later and the replacement brace has never arrived and Labra (Noah) is not responding to follow up emails. I have to admit that I have been duped and that my dog's recovery from his injury has been significantly delayed waiting on this company. Don't make the same mistake with your dog!

It works and gives support. It seam's to slip down but if you put to tight it seems to cut cerculation some.

Purtroppo con gli stretch tende a staccarsi vanificando l'effetto desiderato seppur competitivo il prezzo.

The size of the product is not accurate as portrayed so refrain from buying the product so as to not waste your money.

This works just fine, for the price it’s everything I would expect and hope for. It gives some extra support, a helping hand to keep the leg supported. I bought a large and I have an almost full grown GSD and it fits just fine. My GSD has an injured ACL and without this attached he limps very badly, when I attach this support he clearly walks with more confidence. It allows some movement to assist when walking but also enough support to give that extra helping hand. I would recommend to anyone with elderly dogs that need that extra support or minor injury’s to help assist recovery.

Buen producto

Unser Hund (Labrador) hat eine Sprunggelenkverletzung und deshalb gehumpelt. Die Bandage schütz gut und gibt Halt. Leider musste inzwischen operiert werden weil sich ein Bänderriss herausgestellt hat. Für die Zeit nach Verband und Fäden ziehen setze ich wieder auf die Bandage. Größe M ist perfekt für unser Labbimädchen.
