It's not often that we get to help a donkey get back on his hooves!
After an accident on the farm caused his right front leg to be amputated, Dale the donkey was introduced to the #HangerClinic team in Fort Dodge, IA to help him regain his mobility.
Over a two-month span, prosthetist Kurt Oetken, along with technician Rick Lein and resident Ray Lee, worked in consultation with a veterinarian to fit Dale with a custom prosthetic device that would take the pressure off his remaining front limb and allow him to walk and run without pain.
Last month, Dale was officially fit with his new leg and now spends his days happily roaming the farm, causing mischief with his goat friends. Check out this video to see Dale in action! #EmpoweredCareers

"There isn’t one magic bullet that can guarantee a long, productive athletic career for your horse. Many factors—some within our control, others not—stress your horse’s musculoskeletal system and, over time, increase his chances of sustaining both soft tissue injuries and joint damage. Experts agree that mitigating the stressors on your horse’s body over time, as it accumulates wear and tear, is the best way to promote long-term soundness and performance."

Meet Hitchcock 🐶💜, a spirited 11-year-old flat coated retriever who, despite facing challenges, never lets anything slow him down. For some time now, Hitchcock has struggled with wrist instability, a condition that made everyday activities difficult. But his resilience and love for adventure have never stopped.
Two years ago, Hitchcock’s owner discovered WIMBA while searching online. WIMBA was already known at their physical therapy center, making it a natural choice. After being fitted with a WIMBA Carpal Orthosis, Hitchcock’s life became significantly easier. According to his owner, the experience with the orthosis has always been positive and remains so to this day.
The orthosis has seamlessly integrated into their routine. His owner notes that while the brace can get dirty, it’s easy to clean. This ease of maintenance has made it a straightforward part of their daily life.
What’s truly heartwarming is seeing Hitchcock live life on his terms. He loves diving into puddles, rolling in the mud, and exploring the world around him, whether it’s a snowy winter day or a sunny outing by the water. From swimming in pools to splashing in lakes, Hitchcock’s tail never stops wagging as he’s always ready for the next adventure. His owner finds immense joy in seeing Hitchcock so happy, despite his challenges.
For two years, Hitchcock has thrived despite significant joint degeneration, and his success with the WIMBA orthosis is something his owner proudly shares.

What is the LupoGait®-System and what makes it cutting edge?
There is a common problem in the world of vet medicine: the inaccurate diagnosis of orthopedic malfunctions in dogs. Even a small fall can contribute to a disorder of the gait pattern. The relations of which are often unclear for traditional diagnostic tools such as X-rays, CT and MRI.
To meet this challenge, we developed LupoGait. Our gait analysis system allows the detection of differentiated gait parameters. Suitable for any breed, any age and any dog.
Clinically validated over several years, we combine advanced measurement methods with A.I.-supported analysis to determine differentiated gait irregularities. Reproducible, objective and mobile.
This way, our easy-to-use system supports the development and maintenance of a healthy skeletal system from puppyhood to senior age.
Making way for evidence-based, specialised therapy, monitoring and prophylaxis for every dog.
Find the new basic scientific literature of canine orthopaedics. Including training plans, nutrition and in-depth information about canine orthopaedics, with videos and case studies from vet practice.
