This, in essence, serves as a wheel chair for a dog, that is, a dog that does not have hind legs, uses this for mobility
Donald was a Veterinary Orthotics and Prosthetics Custom Brace and Artificial Limb Provider for dogs and other animals. His company’s name was kinetic paws through which he offered “Premium Hand Crafted Orthotics.”
His background was in human orthotic and prosthetic application, “I started a company providing the same type of aides and devices for animals.” This was due to his extreme passion and love for animals.
Donald worked with rehabilitation specialists and with veterinarians. The vets made sure that his devices were appropriate and that the applications would fitted properly.
Donald’s services were provided all over Southern California, hat is, he traveled all over Southern California to furnish Orthotics to different animals. However, he was headquartered in the Palmdale/Antelope Valley area and that was were he did most of his design and fabrication.

WOW! Would be great to see it in action too. Cheers
That type of device is so needed. We had a dog that couldn’t use it’s hind legs
I’ve read about this work with animals and it is so inspiring!
Isn’t it wonderful to give animals a ‘second’ life after they suffer from disabillity?!

Ahhh… and animal lover, bless him! I. like. him.
Lovely man. A little dog near me has a pair of wheels and is quite the local character. Its wheels of course are a smaller size than those, must be more difficult with a big dog.
I always think there is a special place in heaven for people that show such kindness to animals.
Thank you for sharing!
