What’s Inside the Tripod Mobility Guide
The Tripod Mobility Guide walks you through what actually changes for a dog or cat after limb amputation, and what to watch for as the remaining limbs take on more load. It’s written for pet owners, not veterinary textbooks — plain language, real photos, and practical next steps.
Inside, you’ll find real tripod patient stories — including Kalina, an 11-year-old dog with bilateral carpal hyperextension, and Juri, an active dog who returned to daily activity with additional limb support — plus the early signs of compensation that are easy to miss at home.
Submitting the form above sends your free Tripod Mobility Guide straight to your inbox, along with a note from WIMBA’s clinical team on whether your dog’s remaining limb could benefit from additional orthotic support — no cost, no obligation.
Common Questions from Tripod Dog Owners
Is the guide actually based on real veterinary experience, or just general pet advice?
The Tripod Mobility Guide is built from real patient cases and WIMBA’s clinical experience with tripod dogs and cats. After you submit the form, WIMBA’s clinical team also reviews your dog’s information and sends a note on whether additional limb support may be worth discussing with your veterinarian.
Does my dog need to be casted or measured in person?
No. No traditional casting is required — WIMBA GO orthoses can be ordered using photos and simple manual measurements.
Will this mean my dog definitely needs a brace?
Not necessarily. Every tripod dog’s condition is different, and additional support isn’t right for every case. The candidacy check is based on your dog’s specific situation, and any orthosis is used as part of a veterinary or rehabilitation plan, under your vet’s guidance.
Is there any cost or obligation to request the guide?
No. The guide and the orthosis candidacy check are free, with no obligation to buy anything.
My dog gets around fine on three legs — why would the remaining limb need attention?
The remaining limb on the same side as the amputation takes on more load with every step. Some dogs show early signs of this strain — slight hesitation, uneven wear, reluctance to keep pace — before it becomes a bigger problem. The guide covers what these early signs look like.
