Dog Shoulder Dislocation Brace

Dislocated shoulders don't fix themselves.

Supporting your dog while the shoulder heals is important, so they don't dislocate again

We want our dogs to be fearless and have fun. Sometimes it goes too far.

Stabilizing their shoulder allows the soft tissue to heal and strengthen. BUT only if it's in the right position.

Velpeau slings help you heal more quickly.

Why Not Just Use a Vet Bandage?

  • Durability - Rewraps and frequent visits to the vet clinic all cost time and money
  • Adjustability - Shoulders swell when they are injured. They shrink when they heal. The brace fits both sizes AND provides compression to reduce the swelling
  • Breathability - Bandages are often coated with plastic-type materials that don't release body heat. The Velpeau sling fabric breathes.
