This brace can also be used in concurrence with the Bone on the unaffected joint for better compensation of the compromised leg.)
The Balto® Bone features three rigid splints - one fixed onto the back of the brace, and two that can be freely adjusted with strong Velcro® to provide different positions and levels of stability.

- Hyperextension
- Bone fractures
- Front leg trauma
- Arthrodesis
Features:
- High quality breathable fabric
