This site is really outstanding. The CEO of the company is himself an amputee and he developed his own prosthetic after not being able to be fit to his satisfaction by conventional methods. He has taken his knowledge and turned it towards his passion for his canine friends. The result is a business that offers wheelchairs, orthotics and prosthetics of virtually any configuration for canines. Because many paralyzed dogs have such issues with foot care, this is an excellent resource to become familiar with if your dog has complete or even partial paralysis of their hind quarters.
