The Balto® Ligatek is carefully designed to stabilise your dog's post-traumatic or acquired knee joint deficiency.  

What Is It For?

Ligatek is also width adjustable (thanks to our modifiable straps) as wellas length-adjustable. The upper and lower padding can be extended or shortened to ensure an excellent fit around the leg.

Recommended Use

During postoperative care please follow your veterinarian’s instructions on appropriate usage time. In case of postoperative edema remove the brace until the swelling is reduced.

Do not remove the stickers showing the hinge degrees and the brace direction.

Keep the brace clean. Eliminate any hair, especially inside the Velcro parts: use an appropriate hairbrush every 2/3 days.

Do not machine wash the brace: for proper cleaning remove all padded parts and hand wash them in cold water with mild detergent.

Do not use screwdrivers or other electrical tools to adjust the screws.

Do not force the screws during assembly to avoid damaging the thread.

In addition to the 2 allen keys, the package contains a few spare screws.

Do not leave the brace on for an extended period of time: the brace must be worn during the day, especially during physical activity, and it should be removed at night.

Do not leave your dog unattended for a long period of time while wearing the brace: your dog could try to remove it by biting or scratching the brace.
