PetieTec sent some heat therapy braces after hearing about Max's elbow dysplasia. We've been using the back, hip and elbow braces. They're powered by a power pack and have 3 different heat settings. They're easy to put on and stay in place with adjustable straps.
Unfortunately Max was diagnosed with elbow dysplasia a few weeks back. He is already improving, he's been on supplements for about a week and a half and they seem to be kicking in 🤞 He's still on metacam but that's been halved and will be halved again tomorrow...
He's also being referred for hydrotherapy. Considering 2 weeks ago he could barely walk he is doing so well! He's had a few big walks this weekend and had about 15 minutes off the lead earlier, so far he isn't showing any signs of pain 🤞❤
No limping for nearly 2 weeks, hopefully it stays that way! On Thursday he's having platelet-rich plasma treatment, where they will take some of his blood then inject the plasma back into his elbow joint. The vet has had a high success rate so we're really hoping it will help him
