A:
: When a CCL/ACL injury happens, this causes the tibia to shift forward. This movement can cause pain and further damage to the joint if not suppressed and supported. Soft braces are not strong enough to suppress the tibia, and can result in poor outcomes. With the Posh Brace, we fully support the stifle and prevent tibial thrust with proper suppression.
A:
Yes, they are fully waterproof, even with underwater treadmill and swimming at the beach
A:
Posh braces can be adjusted with the expert assistance from our certified Veterinary Technicians through a video call. We can shorten straps, change femoral shell angle if needed, as well as lengthen the brace for growing puppies.
A:
We leave that completely up to each client. We are more than happy to work with you and your vet, via video call. Or, you can also do everything from the comfort of your own home, with one of our wonderful Veterinary Technicians through a video call.
A:
The way we see it: your dog is our actual customer. We have been through the fear of contemplating the horrible and risky surgery on our 11 year old golden angel, Pasha, in 2013. We ourselves were exactly where you are now. We’ll help your dog and be your friend during this stressful time. We know firsthand exactly how you feel.
We have a much different perspective than any other dog knee brace company. When we first speak with you, you will talk with a company principal, not an employee our employees are quintessential dog lovers, or they are not part of our rapidly growing company.
Each and every posh dog knee brace is made with proprietary methods, only the best of everything, and A LOT of love for YOUR “pasha”.
A:
Yes we do! We will send a $25 gift card every time you send us a new customer.
A:
With Posh, you only pay for the brace plus shipping. We do not have any other hidden fees, unlike other companies. With a casted brace you will look to spend an additional $150-$600 for sedation and casting, along with vet visits to take the cast. You may see some casted braces cost less than our custom Posh Braces, however, after adding up the extra fees, some end up costing you double.
A:
Simple! Just go to the “order your brace” icon and select the type of brace you wish to order (Knee, wrist, elbow). After you place the order, we will send you a welcome email with all of your measurement information. Next, we will schedule your 1:1 video call with our veterinary technicians to help you take the measurements we need. Then, we can start fabricating your custom brace. Finally, we will ship your custom brace. This entire process is usually about a business week from start to finish.
A:
Yes – unlike any other company, we offer a discount of $75 dollars for the second brace, regardless of when you need one. Also we express ship every brace purchase.
But let’s say your dog has made a full recovery wearing our brace, and then injures the other leg (CCL). We recommend that your dog wear the posh brace for a period of 12 months. Then, after 12 months, we can convert the brace for the other leg, for about half the cost of a new brace. No other dog stifle brace company can do this and save a customer from having to spend the full amount on a new brace.
Our innovative company is the only one who can rebuild and convert an existing posh brace to fit the other leg of your dog, should your dog sustain an eventual injury on the other leg, rather than making an entirely new brace (This saves you around five hundred dollars). The cost for this conversion is $450 and includes a complete refurbishment at the same time.
A:
Fabrication of a custom posh brace ranges from 3-5 business days typically, with 2-3 day priority shipping. More than twice as fast as any other custom brace company! International shipments are sent via fed ex express, and shipping is usually less than 3-4 business days to CANADA.
A:
Yes it will! In the 10 years that Posh has been around, and the over 14,000 patients we have worked with, we now know that it takes around 9-12 months to fully recover from a CCL/ACL tear. About 1 in 3 customers have a fully torn CCL (ACL) rupture, and still have a full recovery with our process. We have worked with many specialists over the years to fine tune our process, and are confident when we say that your dog can fully recover using a Posh Brace.
A:
Generally 9-12 months, 12 if there is a minor meniscus tear. We need to give the joint adequate time for the scar tissue to form and re-stabilize the joint. We have juvenile scar tissue forming in 2-3 months, but it will fully mature in about 9-12.
Get a posh dog knee brace, and begin the recovery process in a week, with zero risk!
A:
Atrophy occurs quickly in many dogs with a joint injury. We factor this into our design, and can accommodate for a 30% flux up or down with muscle or weight. With our custom flexi-shell design, our brace is the only option for juvenile dog’s that need something that can be adjusted as they grow. Some cases we must re-make an entire new shell or modify the design, and this is usually less than $300.
A:
We include a free 1:1 video call with each dog customer, as well as supplement and physical therapy/walk schedule support from our certified Veterinary technicians.

Lifetime warranty
All other frame parts have a 150 day warranty within 150 days of receiving your posh brace, and you will not be charged for these items if defective in this time: 1. straps, pads, hock wraps, foam lining on shells.
Adjustments and fitting warranty: Within 120 days, after you receive your posh brace, there is no charge for required materials, video calls, or labor. After this time there will be a $45 charge to schedule with a technician.
*Please note: Our adjustment and lifetime warranty is VOID if:
The device has been misused, negligence, or chewed
A:
This rarely happens. When it does, and before we have started fabrication of your custom brace, we will issue a refund to you as follows:
We will issue a refund to you as follows, for up to 120 days:
These charges are for the direct costs we incurred with your authorization, and at your direction, as well as many hours of services which we rendered and hours expended preparing to help your dog with consultations. account setups, document preparation, emails, live video call for measuring with a licensed Veterinary Technician, sending out proprietary information, mailing, and the time it takes to discuss and process any refund.
If you decide to re-order at anytime, we credit you the cancellation charge toward a new brace.
A:
As with all other canine orthotic brace makers, we generally do not offer refunds. We invest hundreds of dollars in parts in fabrication each brace, and over 15 hours of time in providing a set of services to each customer. Therefore, we do NOT offer refunds, after we start making a custom made, one-of-a-kind brace.
With that said, in very rare cases at least we will consider refunding a part of dog knee brace.
Partial refund scenario 1: Extremely Rare Fit Issues – This has happened less than .01% of the time. We help dogs other companies turn away. – If we, NOT you, determine that we can’t fit a brace to your dog. Posh ortho dog will make every attempt to adjust the device free of charge (purchaser will pay all shipping charges in advance of such adjustments) during the warranty period.
If after up to the free 3 modifications and video fitting attempts, we, not the customer, determine that we cannot get the brace to fit properly and it is not wearable, and posh ortho dog alone has made that determination, and the customer has fully cooperated with us in a timely and friendly manner, we may, at our discretion, provide a partial refund of the original device cost, only after we receive the brace from you. Being rude instantly vacate any chance of partial refund.
If the purchaser simply does not want to use the device for reasons other than a confirmed improper fit to function, which WE will determine, and/or does not cooperate with us with up to three modifications and photos sent to us to examine for each adjustment, and does not Skype with us to adjust the fit, we do NOT offer a partial refund. Failure to follow our simple instructions is not grounds for partial refund.
Returning a brace to us without our authorization will not be ground for a refund in any amount.
We do NOT offer refunds for refusal of your dog to wear the device. We will do anything in our power to help compel the extremely rare dog to wear comfortable, flexible frame base.
A:
We try to make our process as simple as we can, however, sometimes there are customers that don’t set up the fitting video call, and begin using the brace. This is dangerous, as we have not had the chance to properly check the fit of the brace, to ensure things look good. We want you to get every benefit from a posh brace, and help you with your recovery journey. If you choose not to comply with a fitting call, and make any modifications or adjustments, this could void your warranty.
A:
We offer a product: a custom dog knee brace, and a set of services to support that product and to specifically help your dog. Our price includes payment for both our hours of services, parts, and custom crafting a posh brace. Our set of services include: phone consultations, other support phone calls with a licensed veterinary technician, account setup, document preparation, emails, sending out proprietary information, live video call with a licensed veterinary technician for measuring, mailing the custom posh brace to you, live video call with a licensed veterinary technician for fitting (sometimes two calls), making possible adjustments to the custom crafted posh brace, and more.
In fact, we render many hours and hundreds of dollars in services for each dog we help. In fact half of our time is devoted to fulfilling the necessary set of services to each customer.

That depends on the activity level and supervision of the dog. We suggest using the brace during any active times. You will put the brace on for any outdoor activities, such as walks, potty breaks, car rides, play times, etc. You should never have your dog wear the brace during the night or when in a controlled space, like a kennel.
