WIMBA Cervical Collar GO is an adjustable, 3D-printed cervical orthosis designed to provide external support to the upper cervical spine. Available in five sizes for mini and toy-breed dogs, it is selected and ordered by veterinary professionals through WimbaAPP using three patient measurements. No WimbaBOX or 3D scan is required.
In selected patients, limiting unwanted cervical movement may form part of conservative management or provide temporary support before or after surgery. WIMBA Cervical Collar GO is used within an individual veterinary treatment plan, which may also include prescribed activity restriction, medication, rehabilitation and clinical monitoring. Patient selection should follow neurological assessment and appropriate diagnostic imaging. The collar does not replace surgical stabilization when surgery is indicated.
WIMBA Cervical Collar GO is intended for mini and toy-breed dogs when external cervical support is clinically appropriate in selected cases of atlantoaxial instability (AAI), other C1–C2 vertebral instability or selected C1–C2 fractures. It may also be used as temporary preoperative or postoperative support when included in the treating veterinarian’s plan. Final size selection, fitting, duration of use and follow-up should be determined by the treating veterinary professional.
WIMBA Cervical Collar GO is available in Nano, XXS Short, XXS, XS and S. Take three measurements with a soft measuring tape and enter them in WimbaAPP. The app suggests the closest available size. The veterinary professional reviews the recommendation and confirms the final size before ordering. No WimbaBOX or 3D scan is required.
Practical considerations during extended use
Adjustable, removable 3D-printed cervical orthosis
Create a free veterinary WimbaAPP account, enter the patient’s three measurements and review the suggested size. Confirm the appropriate size and place the order directly through the app. No WimbaBOX or 3D scan is required.
From assessment to follow-up, the process is designed to fit into everyday clinical practice.
The open 3D-printed structure limits unnecessary material coverage and supports routine visual inspection and hygiene.
The design provides support beneath the mandible and along the cervical and sternal regions to help maintain the fitted position and limit unwanted movement.
Independent adjustment points allow the veterinary professional to refine the fit and reassess it during follow-up.
Only three patient measurements are required, and the collar is typically prepared for dispatch within two business days.
Five predefined sizes and a measurement-led process support consistent selection, fitting and reordering.
The collar can be removed, cleaned, checked and reapplied according to the treating veterinarian’s instructions.

These case stories illustrate individual veterinary treatment plans and do not define the general indications for the device.
The collar is designed for selected upper-cervical cases in mini and toy-breed dogs, including atlantoaxial instability, other C1–C2 vertebral instability and selected C1–C2 fractures. It may also be used as temporary preoperative or postoperative support when external cervical support is clinically appropriate. Suitability must be determined by the treating veterinary professional.
No. Some patients require surgical stabilization. The collar may be considered within a conservative, preoperative or postoperative treatment plan when external support is clinically appropriate. The treatment pathway should be based on neurological assessment and diagnostic imaging.
The collar is not individually 3D-scanned. It is available in five predefined sizes and can be adjusted around the neck and chest. WimbaAPP helps match the patient’s measurements to the closest available size.
No. Ordering requires three measurements taken with a soft measuring tape. The order is placed directly through WimbaAPP.
WIMBA Cervical Collar GO is ordered by veterinary professionals. Pet owners should speak with their veterinarian or find a WIMBA provider.
