Our older spaniel stopped using a back leg recently and the vet thought it was a torn ACL but didn't recommend surgery so I grabbed this even at a bit of a steep price (I hovered over the stars on "value for money" - for its complexity and quality of construction it is worth this much). Wavering between two sizes I went big and should not have, it's a little large with hook and loop adjustments at their max, but it still works to give his leg support and mostly to keep him more cautious and from overusing it. Once you have everything on and adjusted - no small feat the first time! - it's quick and easy to get on with clips everywhere you need them. He hates it, but hopefully it'll be a relatively quick convalescence and this will have done its job. It seems to be helping so far, he's moving much more easily with it on and off. I have seen more "minimalist" models (that are also much cheaper) and may grab one of those for once he's mostly back in shape, just to protect it a bit longer but without putting him in the whole thing - if your dog's injury is less severe that may be an option.
