SQUAD MATES 🐺🐺🐺 you’ve all been asking how Tidus is doing with his ACL injury, and here is the FIRST VIDEO in the series of “Tidus ACL Road To Recovery” 🐻
♥️AOC Shop for dogs : huskysquad.shop... USE "HUSKY0520" for 5% off custom braces
♥️Learn How to feed your dogs REAL food: www.huskysquad...
♥️Watch the ENTIRE ACL RECOVERY SERIES HERE: huskysquad.vide... 🐻
♥️READ EVERY STEP WE TOOK AND THE BRACES WE USED TO RECOVER TIDUS FROM HIS ACL INJURY: huskysquad.com...
In this video we show you how we’re taking the alternative, non-invasive holistic approach to healing Tidus’ ACL injury instead of doing the more common and very invasive TPLO surgery. We’ve done so much research on this subject, so if you’re interested in knowing why we’re taking this route, let us know in the comments section.
In this intro video, we talk about the planned course of action for this very common dog injury. We'll show you how we create a cast for Tidus' leg and other steps we will take to heal our little grizzly bear Tidus! 🐻
We’ll be very happy to answer your questions in our upcoming videos, as well as going over different ways to PREVENT this injury to begin with. We’ve learned so much about this subject, and by now we know “prevention” is your best bet to avoid a TPLO surgery that could cost you 5000-8000$.
Send Tidus healing and loving vibes in his journey to recovery. Our Husky Squad Teddy Bear WILL BE BACK ON THE TRAILS SOON! ♥️

[@IndicesTALLBD]

After his recovery without surgery. Can Tidus run , jump? I asking this because my beagle (ACL rupture one leg) has a lot of energy and he is 6 years, the vets just say to do surgery to be able to run or jump again but that option is killing me, I want to try non surgery option.

[@schiros123]

Is he still good several years later?

[@ashleyjackson2497]

We just ordered my Husky two Braces and I was wondering if you had any problems with your boy trying to chew on them? My Husky Ares tries to eat everything and I'm worried he might try to chew on them.

[@ThatHuskyisCrazy]

My Husky boy had TPLO two weeks ago and we could not be happier with the results. My wife is a Ortho Clinical Nurse Specialist and she was good with the operation. He didn't tear his CCL, his was ruptured. He is only 3 years old and we did'nt want dog that young limping around for the next 10 to 12 years. TPLO is the Gold Standard for this injury. A woman who checking me out at PetsMart told me her female Pit Bull had the surgery last year and now it's like the injury never happened.

[@SpencerMack]

How has his recovery gone?

[@beckyontour7417]

Your great relationship with your pups is totally paying off here! Tidus stayed so calm while you were doing that. Can only imagine how many other dogs would have freaked out.

Excellent information, so pleased to hear that his recovery plan is taking place without the invasive surgery. All your time and research has, and will continue to benefit Tidus. It will also benefit all who are following your videos. So many healing vibes being sent his way. I look forward to seeing him swim with his pack enjoying life as it is meant to be enjoyed... You both embody the true meaning of love and care for your amazing kids, you can see the love and trust flow back and forth between you all.

[@huskysquad]

Thank you so much Rhonda! Yes, that's the plan. We want to share information from a dog parent perspective about the options there are for prevention and healing. We felt so lost during our first experience and we know how it feels. Your message means so much to us. We're a little very bonded pack, and our entire life is wrapped around our bear's recovery. Thank you for noticing the trust and love we built together. They are are whole life. Sending lots of love and gratitude. ❤

jacob and the 3 labs here.. we didnt know about Tidus' issue. thanks for sharing. we hope there is a awesome recovery. i loved the music that was playing in the background. . i learned a lot about this issue. thanks for sharing. wow. i was impressed that Tidus was calm about the whole process.

[@huskysquad]

Hello guys! Yes, our lives revolve around Tidus's recovery calendar right now, but he's making progress ❤ Thank you so much, so happy you enjoyed the video and found it beneficial. Lot's more to come on this subject about prevention and healing. We've built great trust between each other, and now in times like this, it's paying off so well. Sending love to all of you!

[@emke9326]

Thank you for your dedication and info. Speedy recovery sweet Tidus❤️

[@huskysquad]

Thanks so very much friend ❤

[@MeHoneybee1]

Thank you so much for sharing! My husky just recently hurt her ACL as well, so we’ve been doing conservative management but have yet to get her a brace! So helpful, thank you!

[@huskysquad]

I'm so sorry Melissa! I know how worrisome and intense this entire process is. Conservative management is so critical in this process, and the custom brace from Animal Ortho Care is a life saver. We highly reccommend them., Dr Campana is amazing and passionate about this subject. He makes the most fantastic custom braces at an affordable price too. You can see the options here: bit.ly/animal-ortho-care-huskysquad Look out for our upcoming videos where we share lots more about this recovery. Best wishes to you guys. Sending hugs 🤗

[@carlosnava8485]

Was the ACL injury a complete tear or partial? and how did it go?

[@Ironmom4]

Yes I am definitely interested in a prevention video. My husky girls Stella and Khloe are about 10. Praying for. A quick recovery for Tidus.

[@huskysquad]

Awesome, we'll film it! :) Sending love to you and your girls 💖

This video is really informative, thank you very much for sharing your knowledge with us. Looking forwards to part 2 as well as videos about preventing ACL injury - it would be very interesting. A lot of hugs and kisses to Tidus (and for all the Squad!) as well as positive vibes for a speed and full recovery

Did you use a brace? If so, which one?

[@puakela]

Our 7 y/o pittie mix just tore her ACL today and I remembered you had this series! We ordered 2 custom braces in the mail today and have an appointment with our vet tomorrow to make a plan. Hoping MJ has as much success as Tidus (RIP sweet boy❤)

Yes he is! :) Come watch him play in our new video from today! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hWKoioOcjK-GmtU

[@2grandbabies1nana56]

Victoria & JC wow!! Top rated educational video for a real life potential situation that happens to many dogs. My beloved Golden Daisy had ACL surgery at 8 yrs old & she did well with full recovery ( I used my PT knowledge which helped), but this non-invasive healing is optimal. My vet never gave me an option for natural healing. You're amazing dedicated doggie parents, this route isn't easy either. Did your vet also recommend glucosamine with chondroitin by any chance? Thank you for providing this video. Tidus is so sweet & trusting, he'll do just fine❤️

[@huskysquad]

Thank you so very much for the sweet message! Yes, ACL injuries are so common, and we feel there needs to be more information out there to empower dog parents. I'm so glad your sweet pup recovered. Most vets will not tell you about this option, actually all traditional vets tried to push us into surgery. I believe that's what they are taught as the only option. Physical therapy route takes a lot of patience, but we want to do what's best for Tidus and we're there for them for what he needs, not what's quick on our end. We have so much more coming on this subject, but our holistic vet has us do home made bone broth therapy instead of glucosamine with chondroitin. sending lots of love and much more to come ❤️

[@tawilso]

This is really informative. Thanks for sharing, guys! It sounds like a great recovery plan for Tidus ☺️

[@huskysquad]

tawilso thank you so much friend ♥️🐻 we’re confident in the plan and amazing team we’re working with 🙌😀 so grateful

[@Яна.Яновна]

ligaments cannot be restored unfortunately. I wonder how expensive this “prosthesis” is in comparison with TPLO, if it is much cheaper, then this is a great way out for people who cannot pay TPLO .

Why not go the surgical route? I know it's expensive but seems like all the stuff you all are doing wouldn't be much cheaper and take way more time

[@claudiamarykay1]

Our first husky had the same injury - she was overweight & ended up damaging her other leg. I searched for options & remember looking for anything regarding this problem. We decided to go through the surgery & sadly she passed away right after. I don’t know if it was her body fighting an infection or something else. I felt helpless & lost without her. I made a promise to myself to not let our other pups get overweight to avoid this injury. Thank you for sharing your husky adventures!! All the best for a speedy recovery.

[@huskysquad]

@@claudiamarykay1 OMG I'm so sorry to read this!!! Sending so much love and hugs your way. Yes, prevention is KEY, and a healthy weight is one of the components to prevent this injury in active dogs.

Kaos is getting his Tplo surgery next week. Two years of being in pain, also being diabetic. His right leg is very bad but I think his left also has cruciate damage will def look into the brace for the other leg. Surgery is Dear but he's in pain every day and needs it. Glad I found this video, very interesting.

[@loisromeo7859]

I enjoyed your video very much. I have an Old English bulldog, who is very athletic, loves to run and fetch and he has recently suffered the type of injury you are discussing. We are both retired so we are with Bronx (the dog) and his sister all the time. His sister is an English bulldog and not athletic like Bronx. We dread the surgery for Bronx and we know it will be difficult for him to give up running and fetching but we will do whatever we can to prevent surgery. I look forward to your next video. Thank you so much!

[@aviark]

About 2 weeks ago my border terrier /Jack Russel cross started limping at the dog park. I saw no evidence of why so I called my vet and after he took the time to thoroughly explain why what I described was an ACL injury he suggested I pick up some anti inflammatory meds for a while and see how he then is. I have used this vet clinic with all of my critters for about 25 years.I am so blessed to have vets that think conservatively and do not first think SURGERY. i am seeing a definite although small improvement. After considering alternatives and watching this video, I am going to put aside any thoughts of surgery.until I give resting and supplements their chance. Also my dog weighs only 22 pounds and is very fit so he has a good chance with this approach. I am also considering a canine wheelchair which research shows to be a helpful aid. Thank you so much for clearly demonstrating the course you followed to a successful conclusion.

[@goexist5826]

Hey! Awesome channel, just subbed. My 4yo GSD recently tore her ACL. The thing is, if she doesn't get at least a little walk in - she will run around the house late at night all energetic and crazy, making it worse than a standard walk! I've got a red light LED therapy coming in the mail, but I'm probably going to get these (2) braces. Thank you! How active can the dog be when he wears the brace?

[@M3231-s3v]

We're in the same boat but we have another problem. Our dog is a hybrid, part husky part wolf. She will not let us handle her like that. We have to be exceptionally careful and we know what we can and can't do with her so putting a brace on and off, doing anything with her damaged leg is not cool.

Did Titus have a partial tear or a full year and do you know if the meniscus was still intact? I just went through this with my dog but didn't have all of this helpful information. I did do research but we felt pressured with time to get a lateral suture repair surgery done for my dog for her fully torn CCL, because she also has a partial tear in her other leg. I'm glad I found your video. I want d to get her a brace but our vet strongly recommend against it for sores, but I guess this is what veterinarians do like medical doctors who don't practice holistic healing. Also, may I have the name of your holistic vet please? There are none in the state where I live. My dog Allie will start physical therapy soon, I think swimming would be better for her since she has a partial tear in her other leg too. Thank you for your helpful video, I hope Titus is doing well and has recovered well, you have a beautiful pack. Thank you for your help!! 🐾💗🙏

Hi guys!! I just love what you are doing! Living the Life! Just a quick question, I noticed the Small Batch food has garlic in it, isn't that bad for doggo's?

[@huskysquad]

I've read that very small amounts are perfectly fine and beneficial. Our amazing holistic vet suggested this brand and we trust him :)

[@arjinfury3464]

Thanks for the reply!! My 6 year Chi and my 15 week old Husky puppy just love Small Batch! So thanks for recommending it and thanks for all you guys do!! Much Love!

Hello, thank you. My Golden Retriever/Husky Goldie has an ACL injury on her right rear. I will be getting casting for both. You mentioned Tumeric, which I am familiar with, however, did you use any anti-inflammatory from your vet?

[@JacquelineJax]

Do you let your huskys rough play? I’m worried my two will get aggressive and hurt each other if I keep letting them wrestle together.

[@bananapatch9118]

So how did it go ?...still glad you decided against surgery ? We have done tplo surgery 4 times for our dogs, but this time it is our 11 year old Dobie mix. His life expectancy is 11-12, and although we always want the best for our baby, we are questioning spending almost $5000 for a dog that is mid 80s in human years, so we are looking at all options. Thanks so much !

[@Red13Nanaki]

I'll have to look into one of those braces. My Akita is just over a year old and ended up injuring his knee. They said he looks like he's healing, just slowly, but I kind of want to look into a brace either way as a just in case.

[@huskysquad]

How is your Akita doing? Tidus is fully recovered since May 2019! :) Here are all the details + braces info: huskysquad.com/dog-acl-recovery-without-surgery/

[@Red13Nanaki]

@@huskysquad He's actually been doing really well, thanks for asking. He has a yearly checkup coming tomorrow at his vet, so I know they'll check his leg out and see how it's doing. I did end up getting one of the knee braces for him as well. Mostly as a just in case. Because even comparing what happened to your husky he only really limped for a day or two. After that the only reason I could tell anything else was wrong was I kept hearing his knee popping loudly for a little while. But now I might feel it pop slightly and that's only if I really try and test his leg. So hopefully it'll keep getting better at this point and nothing else will happen.

[@Festerbestertester6]

Keep in mind, only a partial tear or stretched ligament can be healed this way. With a complete tear it is impossible for the body to rejoin the two ends of the ligament without surgery. You'll need to visit an experienced vet to determine whether the tear is complete or partial, which they can determine by simple manipulation of the joint. The ligament is normally under tension, and after a full tear the two ends are going to be far apart.

[@huskysquad]

Yes, I understand that not all ACL injuries are the same, but the problem is that misdiagnosis is very common. Most vets (even the "experienced" ones) will perform the drawer test (which can sometimes cause more damage depending on how aggressive they are with the dog), then immediately rush the dog parent into surgery. Tidus was initially diagnosed with a "full tear" by a couple of vets, but clearly this wasn't the case. He is a living testament for non-surgical recovery, and based on my experience when consulting with various vets and learning about other people’s experiences, I have reached the following conclusions: -surgery is often described by vets as a necessity in cases where it is neither necessary nor the best treatment option -the expected results of surgery are often misrepresented -these surgeries have risks which are often not disclosed by vets -non-surgical recovery, while usually the best FIRST-choice treatment for ACL injuries in dogs, is often inaccurately portrayed or ignored by vets when discussing available treatment options -these surgery procedures have become cash-cows for vet ortho-surgeons selling these questionable procedures by misrepresenting potential outcomes and risks I highly recommend dog parents to try the risk-free non-surgical treatment (knee brace, conservative management, etc) FIRST before committing to an irreversible bone altering surgery that may come with complications.

[@Malinoisluv]

Thanks for your honesty and common sense. Your not a paid testimonial like the other ones I have watched. 4 sizes don't fit all , my shepherd mix is 90 pounds putting him in the middle of large and xl, he recently partially tore his acl. His name is Judas, he says Thanks 😊

[@denaoller]

My puppy has two partial tears. Nice to know there are other options than surgery. Their beds look super comfy. Where did you get them?

[@huskysquad]

Dena Oller Hey there Dena! Tidus had two partial tears as well. His first was about 6 years ago, which he recovered with the help of his first brace. His second (on the other leg) happened Dec 2018, and he is pretty much fully recovered now. We’re happy to share the alternatives to those who will benefit. Regarding the beds, you can find it in our amazon shop here, under “Top 10 Home Products” huskysquad.shop/amazon Have a look at our “10 Home Products” video for more details about the bed 👌 huskysquad.video/dog-home-products ❤️

Dena, we just uploaded a new video showing Tidus's new braces. We think you'll find it very beneficial! huskysquad.video/dog-acl-brace

[@SpencerMack]

@@huskysquadaloha. How do you know they were partial tears? Because he was able to recover? Did they do the drawer test after his first tear? Thankyou for any feedback

[@dianeprice304]

My dog currently has a partial tear but has injured the other she has a brace but it’s not as supportive as your dogs What supplements do you give your dog? Please do more videos regarding this subject thank you this is so informative

[@huskysquad]

So sorry to read about your dog’s injury. I don’t know which brace you have, but a custom brace like we made for Tidus is probably the most important element for healing this injury. If it’s a generic brace that’s not custom made, it will likely not help at all. We actually filmed a lot of videos on this subject. Tidus is 100% recovered for over 6 months now. Here’s everything in one blog, including the braces we use, supplements, and easy home therapies: huskysquad.com/dog-acl-recovery-without-surgery/ best wishes for a solid recovery ❤️

[@yep9657]

Wow what a beautiful North American setting you guys live.

[@Warsign01]

Thank you for sharing your story. I just found out yesterday that our 3 1/2 year old Blue Heeler has a partial / complete tear in her right CCL. Trying to understand what is best for her. She also has what the vet calls post leg, which makes her much more susceptible to ccl tearing. Heelers are VERY explosive dogs, and I am concerned she would never allow a surgery to heal. BTW, how is your pup now?

[@huskysquad]

We’re so sorry to read about the injury. I know how this feels. Our Tidus fully recovered in under 5 months. We wrote a detailed blog with all the steps we took. You can get all the information right here and we wish you both the best for a solid and speedy recovery huskysquad.blog/acl-recovery-no-surgery

[@Lupita-vq7fl]

Hi love your videos ☺️ I wanted to ask you if you need to have a vet do the casting process or if you can you do it yourself?

[@huskysquad]

Thank you Lupita! They send you a package with everything you need to do the casting yourself. You just need to make sure you follow the instructions precisely, and your dog needs to be calm through the process.
