HanryDongDog Breathable Mesh Recovery Elizabethan Collar, Cat Soft Comfy Adjustable E-Collar, Double Side Blue Green Quicker Healing Pet Cone

This is so much better than the enormous plastic cone the vet provided. It allows our dog to move without hitting things, is soft and comfortable, and stops him scratching the wound on his neck (he had his lymph nodes removed) and his mouth. He can still lick his paws, tail and lower body as the cone is quite short so it might not work for wounds further down. Much better for eating and sleeping too (we also tried an inflatable donut but he couldn't lie his head down properly).

Dog seemed happy enough with it, but he was able to get to his back legs which we were trying to stop.Proper vet cones are longer than this, had to keep an eye on him.Only bought this as he outgrew the last one we bought him - from a vet.

A must if your pet needs a collar, so much kinder to your pooch than the standard plastic ones. A good buy. So many dog walkers liked it, you will too.

This is a good cone. The only issue is it could be a little longer. My dog can still lick himself. Not a problem for us as it was to stop him from scratching his ears. Well worth the price, better than those horrid plastic ones from vets

My cocker spaniel, who is very easy going, has to wear a collar for 10 days minimum after an ear operation. The hard plastic collar provided by the vet was extremely difficult to put on/take off (especially as so near his ear wound) which of course we have to do so that he can eat and drink. He needs to sleep in a collar too. I tried several types (previously) and was also given a click on collar by vet but both types were both uncomfortable, hindered his vision and also seemed to hurt his operation site when he bumped into things (which is unavoidable). So firstly this collar is light in weight, soft but stays ridged when walking around, allows him to lie down and have padding to lie on, and can be removed easily for eating and drinking. Yes the velcro is loud to remove but if it wasn't strong it would disconnect. We bought size 5 as he does not need it to be so deep for this wound - if he had a leg issue or somewhere he could reach with his mouth then I would need to buy the deeper cone which would obviously protude more. He is now almost one week into wearing this and is completely happy with it. We are doing gentle walks and the collar is not a bother to him. Thank goodness we found this , so much kinder. If you have a very uncoperative pet then this may not work, but then I guess the other types would also be a challenge!

Put this on my boy dog due to a paw injury/infection. He took it off within seconds. He is a little monkey and will always try taking things off including dressings that were applied by the vet. Once the dressing was off, he constantly licked his paw, hence putting the cone on.Lovely colours, light weight. Some dogs would settle with it on as it’s comfy to lie on and material is breathable.

Whilst the collar is soft and likely comfortable, it bends easily when pushed at the top so isn't suitable for my Bichon Frise.

Bought this for my working cocker spaniel (recovering from abdominal and tail surgery) as an alternative to the hard plastic one from the vet. The product itself seems great quality - it's soft yet sturdy, the velcro areas are wide which make it feel secure, the colours are bright and fun. She only had it on briefly and laid down - it moulded nicely and didn't seem as awkward as the hard plastic ones.However, it just wasn't deep enough. I used the sizing chart and got a great fit around the neck circumference, but the thing just wasn't deep enough, so I've had to send it back. If you've got a cocker spaniel with an 'upper body' injury, then this would be ideal, but if it's anything below the ribcage, I wouldn't bother.Sad to be leaving a (mildly) negative review, as it does seem like a fab little product for a great price, but I've had to return it as it's useless to us.
