Product Description
The DogLeggs’ Rear Leg Hobble System provides an improved solution to traditional bandage hobbles. It limits abduction of the hind limbs, is easy to apply, and offers superior comfort for the animal. It is machine washable and can be re-used for other animals of similar size. The system is comprised of two adjustable cuffs, each with a ring connector to accommodate the hobble strap. The cuffs secure with VELCRO® Brand fasteners. The hobble strap length is adjustable. For dogs with neurologic dysfunction, a more rigid item can be placed around the hobble strap to prevent adduction during supervised rehabilitation therapy, if desired.
NOTE: We recommend that the veterinary professional apply the product initially.
