The type I double connecting bar configuration of external skeletal fixation was used to stabilize clinical long bone fractures in 10 dogs. The technique for applying the device is presented. Fracture healing occurred in eight instances, and good to excellent clinical limb function occurred in seven. The two non-unions and one poor clinical result are discussed to emphasize proper application technique and case selection..
