Reusable Canine Splint | Flexible Support | Injury Pain Relief
The SAM® Splint - Veterinary is a lightweight and moldable splint that can be used to immobilize your dog after injury. The splint is composed of a thin core of aluminum, sandwiched between two layers of weather resistant, hypoallergenic closed cell foam. The reusable splint is a great tool to have on hand for trainers, adventure seekers, or handlers of working dogs or competition dogs, for the simple fact that it's easy to use and effective.
Although extremely pliable, the splint is soft enough to cut (to size) with ordinary household scissors. When bent into the desired shape, the splint becomes rigid, which helps stabilize the injured limb and joints. In addition to the versatility, SAM® Splint - Veterinary is radiolucent - allowing diagnostic x-rays to be taken while the splint is in use. They are also MRI conditionally safe up to 3 Tesla with a minimal (10mm) artifact halo.
