Pet Orthopaedic in Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah for Better Mobility
Expert bone and joint care for dogs and cats, at Vets24.
A pet that’s slowing down, favouring a leg, or struggling to get up isn’t just “getting older”; it’s usually a sign of a genuine bone, joint, or ligament problem.
Vets 24 is a dedicated team of veterinary bone and joint specialists. Our vet clinic in Ras Al Khaimah & Fujairah diagnoses the real cause instead of writing it off as normal ageing, so your pet gets back to moving comfortably.
Does Your Pet Show These Signs of Joint or Bone Problems?
Watch for these signs in either dogs or cats, as they often point to bone and joint injuries before your pet shows obvious pain:
- Limping, favouring one leg, or an uneven gait
- Difficulty standing up, climbing stairs, or jumping onto furniture
- Stiffness that’s worse after rest and eases with movement
- Swelling, heat, or sensitivity around a joint
- Reduced activity, reluctance to play, or muscle loss in one leg
Orthopaedic Conditions We Diagnose and Treat
ACL/CCL Injuries
One of the most common causes of sudden rear-leg lameness in dogs, often needing ACL/CCL surgery for dogs for a full recovery.
Patellar Luxation
A kneecap that slips out of place, common in smaller breeds, ranging from mild to surgery-requiring cases.
Hip Dysplasia
A developmental joint condition that leads to pain and reduced mobility over time.
Arthritis
Arthritis in pets is one of the most under-diagnosed causes of slowing down in senior dogs and cats.
Ligament & Tendon Injuries
Ligament injuries in pets can range from mild strains to full tears needing surgical repair.
Fractures
From hairline cracks to complex breaks, accurate pet fracture treatment starts with the right diagnostic imaging.
If your pet can’t bear weight on a limb, our Vets 24 team at the emergency clinic in Ras Al Khaimah & Fujairah is available 24/7 to get imaging and treatment started right away.
Orthopaedic Treatment for Dogs and Cats
- Orthopaedic treatment for dogs often centres on active injuries like ACL tears, fractures from play or falls, and hip dysplasia in larger breeds.
- Orthopaedic treatment for cats more frequently involves fractures from falls, arthritis in senior cats, and joint issues that show up more subtly.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does ACL/CCL surgery cost for dogs in the UAE?
Cost varies by breed size, injury severity, and technique used. Vets24 gives you a clear estimate after examining your dog.
Does my pet definitely need surgery for a limp?
Not always. Depending on the cause and severity, your pet may improve with medication, weight management, physiotherapy, or other non-surgical treatment.
How is an orthopaedic problem diagnosed in pets?
Our vets examine your pet’s movement, joints, and overall condition and may recommend diagnostic imaging to identify fractures, ligament injuries, joint problems, or other causes.
Can arthritis in pets be managed without surgery?
Yes, most arthritis cases are managed long-term with medication, weight control, and joint support rather than surgery.
How long does a pet take to recover after orthopaedic surgery?
Recovery can take several weeks to a few months, depending on the procedure and your pet’s condition. Follow-up care and physiotherapy can support a smoother recovery.
