Hi,
I received a private email regarding Cody's knee brace and thought I'd
share it with everyone. If something can help other dogs out of Cody's
misfortune, then please share.

Hi,
I live in Ontario and there is an animal rehab specialist that my vet had
recommended. Her services have become very popular and she now has clients
outside of the province and country. She emails you the forms and
instructions of how to measure up your Pyr for the brace. If you aren't
comfortable doing the measurements, then your vet could do them too. Given
that Cody isn't a great traveller, we didn't want to take him for the 2 hour
drive, so we did the measurements. Then, she asks that you have the
completed forms along with one the vet fills out be faxed to her. It isn't
a true referral, but I think it must be a liability issue so that she is sure
that the injury is what the owner says it is - really it makes sense. I
had the brace within about 10 days of ordering it. The cost was not
outrageous considering the speciality market. I think it has been worth
it. Of note, you get a brace for both back legs to stabilize the other
knee which is also likely to go now that the pup has already hurt one.
Here is her contact info:
