Supports:
Cranial Cruciate Ligament (CCL) Injuries
Luxating Patella
Advanced post-surgical knee support
Alternate to TPLO, TTA, ELSS, and MPL surgeries
Severe arthritis/ arthrosis
The Balto® Ligatek is carefully designed to stabilize your dog's post-traumatic or acquired knee joint deficiency. With its adjustable hinges, the user can control the ROM (range of motion), and lock the joint into full immobilization or controlled degrees of flexion/extension. This enables the treatment of a variety of needs in a versatile way. The brace's width and length can be adjusted thanks to our trimmable straps, and the upper and lower padding can be extended or shortened to ensure an excellent fit around the leg.
Brace Applications:
Post-surgical support (for surgeries such as TPLO, TTA, ELSS, and MPL)
Structural support to injured or affected limbs
ROM regulation for specific rehabilitation plans
Acute knee pain or discomfort
Conservative treatment; use as an alternative to surgery for ineligible surgical candidates.
Brace Features:
Four lightweight airplane aluminum splints for support around knee joint
An adjustable external hinge with secure lock technology for a custom range of motion (ROM) setting
Range of motion can be set to a variety of degrees:
Full Joint Immobilization (typically used pre/post-surgically) = 30° Flexion Position (FLEX) / 30° extension position (EXT)
Reduced Range of Motion (ROM) (typically used during rehabilitation) = 75° Flexion Position (FLEX) / 30° extension position (EXT)
Adjustable upper and lower padding straps can be lengthened or shortened on the leg to ensure an excellent fit
Comes in sizes small through x-large, for left and right orientation. To find the best size for your pet, visit the sizing chart here.

Non-neoprene
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.
