Custom braces, assistive devices and wheelchairs 

Fortunately, there are things you can do to help it live its best life during this time. At Pawsitive Strides Veterinary Rehabilitation and Therapy, we specialize in assisting pet owners in Des Moines to give their furry friends the best mobility possible. 

There are many conditions that benefit from the use of an assistive device, orthotic device, custom brace, wheelchair or cart to help maintain and assist in mobility and staying active for your pet. When it comes to rehabilitative devices It is important to ensure they are custom-fitted to your pet. Dogs or cats naturally like to move around a lot, so these items need to be extremely durable yet able to maneuver with ease. 

The Pawsitive Stride team will select the appropriate braces, prosthetics, and other devices. We can also assist in the measurement, fitting, acclimation to, and proper use of a cart. A Pawsitive Stride veterinarian must thoroughly evaluate any patient that needs the assistance of a device or cart to determine what is most appropriate for the pet.
