POPforPETS Post Operative Protection Shirt for Dogs (Large) - POP for Pets Better Than The Cone! The Most Comfortable Alternative Shirt for Recovery!

Firstly check the sizing and I suggested sizing down, as I went by the measurement guide they have & the medium just about swamped my 26lb Scottish terrier. So we still use this size, but also purchased a second in a size S/M & that fit better.We have been looking for something to stop our senior Scottie incessantly chewing/licking her front legs which led to them becoming bald on one side. This is the 5th item we have purchased to try and stop her, previous ones were the doughnut ‘cone’, multiple anti lick sprays, other anti lick pants, supplements…none of which really did a single thing as she still continued to defy them. But this shirt has finally stopped her, even though she can still reach her feet, but adding the doughnut cone in addition help to cut down on that.This shirt keeps her calm, and warm, she has no problem walking around, jumping onto her bed with it, we just rolled up the legs a little as they’re slightly too long. She also has no problems going too the toilet with it on.I would definitely recommend this to anyone whose at their wits end trying to solve how to stop their pooch from accessing their front legs to chew etc.

Our dog was spayed the same day we brought her home from the rescue (poor dog; her appointment was scheduled months out). The rescue gave us a plastic home, but our dog hated the cone. She kept rolling in the grass to pull it off, and would scratch herself. Within a few days, her neck started bleeding so we were worried and took her to the vet - turned out the cone irritated and made her skin itchy so she kept using her feet to scratch it and developed a hot spot. Because of the cone, the vet had to shave off part of the fur underneath her neck and she's currently still on antibiotics and the spot on her neck is still healing. This is so frustrating because her neck was perfect when we first brought her home, and the cone injured her.As soon as we found out the cone was irritating her, we quickly researched alternatives online. I LOVE this shirt. My friends commented it looks like a regular shirt and makes Miya look cuter. She doesn't like putting it on, but once it's on she prefers it much more than a cone. She's a 52 lb German Shepherd mix, and the Medium fits her perfectly. The velcro keeps it on her so she can't take it off, and it looks way more comfortable than a cone (and she enjoys it way more).I researched a few different surgery recovery shirts/suits on Amazon, and what I liked about this one is that the reviews all said the dog could do their business (poop and pee) without needing to take off the shirt. I found that to be true here; the shirt did a great job of covering up the sutures where she was spayed, but allowed her to use the restroom without any issues. It also seemed higher quality, and it was really easy to through this in the washer once she was done with it.What was also really great about this is I felt completely comfortable letting her out in the yard and rolling in the grass; scratching herself with her foot, since the fabric did a terrific job of protecting her wound from any germs/bacteria and from her powerful scratching. I wish that it was a full turtleneck so it could also protect the hot spot on her neck while it was healing! When we took her to the vet to get her sutures removed a week later, the vet said her wound had healed up nicely and everything looked great. I attribute that 100% to the shirt! This was the best purchase we've made for our dog, and I honestly wish more folks would use the shirt instead of the cone - it's more dog friendly, more comfortable, and doesn't create hot spots the way the cone does. Highly recommend a surgery recovery suit in general, and specifically I'm a brand new fan of this specific brand. It worked wonders!!

This little post-surgical shirt is a lifesaver. I had bought one of the inflatable collars for my 18 month old Australian Cattle Dog, and it was a good idea but she removed it too easily. Like all ACDs, she is a hyperactive run-play-catch dog, despite recent surgery. Next I bought one of the traditional “cones of shame,” but a medium was HUGE —it might have been a bit large for a St. Bernard. And so on to the best post-surg protection of all: This PopForPets post-surgical protection shirt. Awesome.The design, construction and soft fabric are perfection. This shirt is as well made as a pricey fashion tee shirt. The way that it goes on allows a comfortable fit for a wide variety of dog shapes and medium weights. The securely sewn Velcro attachments on the shirt that run down the dog’s back and fit the collar to the dog’s neck are generous enough to allow a comfortable fit for pudgy round dogs as well as the dog with an athletic build like mine. The shirt tail tie is perfect to gather the whole thing together at the back for a perfect fit near the tail and allows for perfect adjustment to the size of the dog’s belly and rib cage. And the magic is complete with the red elastic loops that hook behind the dog’s knees to keep the shirt from riding up and exposing the wound site.Bottom line, IT WORKS. It takes all the struggle and anxiety out of protection of the dog’s surgical stitching - day and night. I don’t have to sleep with one eye open, fearing that my girl will remove a cone or inflatable collar during the night and tear into her stitches And my girl seems to love it. It has the same kind of calming effect as those “anti-anxiety” shirts for dogs that I’ve read about.Praises to PopForPets for designing this remarkable “surgery shirt” for dogs, and at an amazingly low price for such a high quality fabric and design.

Por ansiedad mi perro tiende a lamerse las paras hasta abrirse la piel. Tuvieron q rasurarlo para ponerle suero y se lamía. Con la camiseta se sintió tan cómodo que no lo intentó y pudo crecerle el pelo sin lastimarse

Works for my fat old border collie, but won't fit your german shepard

Exactly as described. Perfect not having to use a collar.
