Corsets are used as part of the physical rehabilitation of dogs, and one of these, the Anifull Dog\u2019s Corset Pro, is manufactured and sold by Daiya Industry Co., Ltd. This corset is used to relieve pain caused by spinal cord and vertebral diseases, and to prevent neurological conditions from worsening, by limiting spinal movement. However, the effect of the Anifull Dog\u2019s Corset Pro on gait has not yet been clarified. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the effects of this corset on the gait of dogs using kinematic and kinetic analyses. Five healthy beagle dogs wearing corsets were trotted, kinematic and kinetic parameters were measured using motion capture and force plates, and the results were compared to those obtained when the dogs were not wearing a corset. The range of motion of the angle formed by the 13th thoracic vertebra and the 7th lumbar vertebra at the apex of the 7th cervical vertebra was significantly reduced in the corset-wearing dogs. Thus, the Anifull Dog\u2019s Corset Pro may improve trunk stability without affecting gait.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ani11092650","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,9]],"date-time":"2021-09-09T12:20:37Z","timestamp":1631190037000},"page":"2650","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Effect of a Corset on the Gait of Healthy Beagle Dogs"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4175-0177","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Takamasa","family":"Itoi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Okayama University of Science, Imabari 794-8555, Ehime, Japan"},{"name":"Department of Comparative Animal Science, Kurashiki University of Science and the Arts, Kurashiki 712-8505, Okayama, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shuji","family":"Kawata","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Anifull, Division of Vet Supplies, Daiya Industry Co., Ltd., Okayama 701-0203, Okayama, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yoshiyuki","family":"Fukuda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of R&D, Daiya Industry Co., Ltd., Okayama 701-0203, Okayama, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Saori","family":"Maejima","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Animal Rehabilitation Community, Okayama 701-1332, Okayama, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2007","DOI":"10.1089\/neu.2016.4745","article-title":"Targeting Translational Successes through CANSORT-SCI: Using Pet Dogs To Identify Effective Treatments for Spinal Cord Injury","volume":"34","author":"Moore","year":"2017","journal-title":"J.
