Contrary to popular belief, animals who lose a limb often face challenges with their remaining limbs and spine, which can impact their activity levels and well-being. Whether one limb or all four limbs are affected, our full-limb and/or partial limb prostheses, with proper fitting and practice, can be life-changing. They not only improve your pet's quality of life but can also extend their lifespan by improving their mobility and comfort.
Together, we can empower your pet’s mobility and joy.
At OrthoPaws, we’re dedicated to enhancing the lives of dogs, cats, and over 30 other species through our custom prosthetic solutions.
We understand the profound impact these devices can have. Despite some controversy surrounding full limb prosthetics, we believe that when crafted with precision and fitted to suitable candidates, they offer significant improvements in mobility and quality of life.
Designed for pets with shortened, malformed, or amputated limbs, these prosthetics provide relief for the weight-bearing limb and prevent further joint degeneration.
Ideal for pets who have undergone a complete or near-complete leg amputation, our full-limb prosthetics alleviate stress on remaining limbs and the spine, addressing issues from osteosarcoma, accidents, or other causes.
Sukie is a 5 year old very active dog with a torn CCL/ACL. Sukie was not a surgical candidate so we were referred to OrthoPaws for a custom brace. After receiving her brace, Sukie is back to running around the yard and doing doggy things - and we can relax knowing she is protected and comfortable.
Our Dog Eva's back foot began to look like it was collapsing. She hopped around for weeks and would not use her foot at all. The Vet said she was not a candidate for surgery. The process was very easy. The brace made a world of difference in Eva's life. She began to run around and play with her toys again - something she hadn't done in a while!
When we learned Jackson tore his Cruciate Ligament, we explored many options on how to heal, repair, and support his injury. We decided to move forward with a custom stifle brace. From start to finish, Dani was there ensuring everything went smoothly. The brace fits Jackson perfectly. He can do all his doggy things comfortably in his brace - and we can relax knowing he is supported and happy.
My parents’ dog, Cali, had a severe Achilles injury that ended up needing surgery. We needed a post-operative option to allow her to heal, and also needed a brace to allow her to gradually regain her motion without re-injuring herself. Dani was able to make a well-fitted splint for the surgery and a perfectly fitted brace for her recovery. Cali wears her brace every day and we do not have to worry about her re-injuring herself so long as she is in her brace. We highly recommend orthopaws to anyone in need of a mobility device for their animal.

Custom prosthetic limbs enhance a pet’s quality of life by allowing them to walk naturally and maintain balance. They provide support, stability, and help distribute weight evenly, preventing injury and promoting mobility. Our durable, custom-made prosthetics ensure a perfect fit for your pet’s unique needs.
The cost of a custom prosthetic for your pet varies based on their specific needs, ranging from $1900 to $2800. Factors influencing the price include your pet's size, level of amputation, and the design of the prosthesis.
