Exchanges, Returns & Shipping

If you have purchased an Ortho Dog brace that is not the correct size for your pup, we’re happy to work with you to find the right fit.

Exchanges

Step 1: Take photos of your dog standing in the brace and send them to our customer service team to review.

Send Us Your Photos

  • If needed, please attach some photos of your dog standing in the brace so that we can check the fit and application. We will be able to give you better advice if we can see the brace on your dog. Please Note - The maximum size for combined attached photos is 10 MB.
    Drop files here or
    Accepted file types: jpg, png, jpeg.
    • This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.

    Step 2: We will evaluate your photos and help determine the proper size brace and send a new brace. Note: We do invoice for the additional shipping fee.

    Step 3: When you get the new size in the mail try it on your pup to ensure it fits properly. Once you’ve confirmed the correct fit, mail back the brace or portions of the brace that did not fit.

    We clean and sanitize the exchanged brace to the best of our ability, but because residual hair is inevitably trapped in the double layered spacer mesh, we opt to donate exchanged braces to clinics and shelters that cater to dogs in need or dog care takers that cannot afford brace.

    Returns

    Given the nature of our products, we do not accept any returns for hygienic purposes—in order to prevent the spread of any contagions. Additionally, dogs’ sense of smell is extremely sensitive (more than 10,000 times stronger than ours), which means that even with the most thorough sanitization and cleaning, a returned brace will never smell like new to a new pup, which can affect the dog’s comfort level wearing the brace.

    If your pup no longer requires a brace, you may ship it back to us to donate to dogs in need or donate it to your local shelter or clinic.
