Andre’s custom pet prostheses were fabricated by OrthoPets from thermoplastic, specifically molded for Andre’s leg measurements, along with Tamarack Flexure Joints to simulate natural movement. It’s a miracle how quickly Andre is able to adapt to wearing the new prostheses.
OrthoPets was founded in 2003 by Amy and Martin Kaufmann and continues to grow as a source for custom pet orthotic & prosthetic devices across the United States and abroad. For more information, visit www.orthopets.com.
