This is a really good idea. stops them from getting sores where they lay as well as help them move when they want. Kind if like when a horse has a broken leg, or two. And once her body is ready, you could put him in this and lower them into a large tub of water to exercise him, swimming is great for them but you don't want to do it to early cuz it also wears them out very quickly.
There was someone north if me that had a B&T that got it, I want to say he stillhad ssymptoms after 6 months. I was up at their place in august (he got it during kill season the year before, which here starts in. Sept and ends I January or February) and one of his legs still had problems, the ligaments were still tightened from months of inactivity. So easily 7-9 months later they were still dealing with it
