Vital Tips: There are many soft, neoprene leg braces on the market and it can be hard to choose.  When choosing a brace, think about what your pet needs.  Is it a light support or something to protect the limb or something more heavy-duty?  Will your pet fit into a standard size brace or is the brace able to be trimmed to fit better?
