Hola Adrian, el tema de las tallas siempre es algo difícil. Por favor, recuerda que puedes cambiar la talla sin problemas. Tan solo envía la talla que no deseas a nuestra dirección.
Hola María, tienes 30 días para devolver la férula si no la has utilizado. Si esta es algo ancha en ocasiones se soluciona poniendo un vendaje cohesivo antes de colocar la férula. También la podéis estrechar calentándola con una pistola de aire caliente. El corrector propioceptivo es sólo para la pata trasera en principio.
Hola José Manuel, sentimos que la talla no sea la adecuada. Recuerda que puedes devolverla si no la has utilizado o cambiarla por una talla inferior. Estaremos encantados de atenderte en el 930 219 323, de lunes a viernes de 9 a 18;30h.

Desconozco los motivos de vuestro caso

Remember to make a gradual introduction of the orthoses, that is, use it for a few minutes the first day and thoroughly review the area of the body in contact with the dog to rule out possible friction with the material.
If the size is correct little by little the dog will adapt and we can lengthen the treatment period. In general, orthoses are recommended to be worn about ten minutes before and for the duration of the walk. And always under our supervision.
We advise you to introduce any kind of product gradually. In the first few days you should check for skin reactions or redness. We use soft materials to reduce rubbing to the minimum.
In the case of any kind of lesion or wound you should remove the product and wait for the wound to be fully healed.
For braces, it is advisable to put them on ten minutes before taking the dog for a walk so that the neoprene warms up, and keep it on for up to ten minutes after returning home.
