Balto® Lux – Shoulder Brace

The Balto^® Lux addresses injuries and congenital disorders of the shoulders in dogs. This canine glenohumeral (shoulder) brace is a great solution for dogs suffering from limited mobility. This breathable compression brace, made with non-neoprene material, provides stability and support to your dog's shoulders without severely compromising natural movement. This shoulder brace is an excellent option for dogs in need of additional support while maintaining an active lifestyle.

• Sprains and strains of the shoulder
• Post-surgical support
• Structural support for soft tissue injuries to the glenohumeral joint
• Chronic shoulder pain management
• Wound management; protection of bandages from biting, licking, gravity and friction

• Includes internal stiffeners to increase or decrease compression as needed
• Optional hobble strap included for a “shoulders-width” snug fit
• The brace compresses both shoulders simultaneously for conditions such as arthritis and arthrosis.
• Compression helps increase blood flow in the affected area, which helps reduce stiffness, pain, and inflammation
• Adjustable padding and straps that can be lengthened or shortened to ensure an excellent fit

Comes in sizes x-small through large. To find the best size for your pet, visit the sizing chart here.

All Balto® braces are made from high-quality materials, not neoprene, which is known to collect bacteria, provide inadequate support, and wear down quickly. A variety of sizes ensure a secure fit. No pinching straps.

Recommended for all ages unless otherwise advised by veterinarians. Apply brace for balanced increments of time, if appropriate, for pets under the age of 2 to prevent possible growth disturbances.

Instructions for Use

Step 1

Prepare the brace by opening the straps around the elbows and over the front of the chest. Position the brace over the withers (Fig. 1).

Step 2

Secure the Velcro straps around the elbow (Fig. 2).

Step 3

Secure the Velcro straps over the front of the chest (Fig. 3).

Step 4

Now secure the Velcro Strap underneath the chest (Fig. 4).

Step 5

The Velcro straps across the back must be tightened so that the rigid surfaces of the brace correctly compress the shoulders (Fig. 5).

Step 6

Use the hobble straps if necessary (Fig. 6).

Step 7

Each strap can be adjusted in length depending on the size of your dog. Remove the Velcro ends and cut the strap to the desired length. Reapply the Velcro ends and tightly close with the Velcro strap to ensure the brace is stable (Fig. 7).

A clean brace not only prevents infections, irritation, and a stinky smell; but it also allows your brace to last longer. To help support the longevity of your bracing device, here are some of our tips on how to properly clean your orthopedic bracing:

1. Remove as much hair as possible from any Velcro^® frequently to prevent compaction.
2. Use lint roller or lightly adhesive tape to remove hair from the material of the brace.
3. By hand, use warm water and a gentle cleansing soap to remove any stains and odors.
4. Rinse soap thoroughly from the brace
5. Hang to dry. Once the brace is completely dry, it is ready for use!
