My boxer's other knee is lame after ACL surgery. What brace helps?

Question

Our boxer, 69 lb, had ACL surgery in her right knee. That knee is doing fine today. Now her left knee is giving her a problem and she is somewhat lame. I am taking her to the vet for x-rays on Saturday, but would like to know a good wrap or brace that could help her. Pet's info: Dog | BullBoxer | Female | spayed | 9 years and 4 months old | 69 lbs

Your best option is probably to keep her confined and only take her outside to go potty on a leash, much like you did after her first surgery. Wraps or splints can be harmful if improperly applied, or applied too tightly.
