How Fitpaws Equipment Benefits Tripawds®

Core and limb strength is very important, but for dogs who have been through amputation it is absolutely vital.

That strength powers their getting back to a happy and healthy life in a much shorter time. How?

Making the decision as a pet parent to have your pet’s limb amputated is most challenging and deeply emotional. You are committing to a process that requires time, patience and a ton of love. We know your canine companion is worth all sacrifice, and we want to help!

FitPAWS® Canine Conditioning Equipment has been a key part of the journey for many of our canine friends. For instance, meet Wyatt Ray Dawg. Maybe you’ve already been acquainted with this hero at Tripawds.com.

Wyatt lost his right, rear leg due to neglect, but he was rescued by caring veterinary professionals and his new pet “pawrents” Jim Nelson and René Agredano, founders of Tripawds.com. (See his intro on YouTube!)

“Nearly three years after beginning our work on improving his core muscles and balance capabilities, our tripawd dog Wyatt is stronger than ever.

“As you can see in the above photo of Wyatt Ray running, his remaining rear limb was extremely weak and his slope was extremely pronounced. That photo was taken less than six months after amputation.

“Today, this photo on the right shows his improvement, almost three years after amputation. His stronger core muscles are better able to support his entire body, his rear leg has gained power and more obvious definition.

“Today he has better spinal alignment and longer endurance that helps him during playtime and walks. Staying strong will also reduce joint stress as he ages.”
