I looked for a similar thread and couldn't find one on ACL tears.Just curious if anyone has dealt with a ACL tear in their bulldog.It happened almost three weeks ago, and he still favors his back right leg.Our vet has done over a dozen ACL surgeries ,but I wanted to ask other owner's opinions.Will a leg brace help/correct the problem without surgery.Or is it only putting a bandaid on it?The leg brace I found was through animal ortho care.They send you a kit and you make the cast yourself and send it off.
Our vet said that due to how bulldog's legs are shaped that a brace would not help.I've found several photos of bulldogs with rear leg braces on.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again.
