For potty breaks it says you can just zipper it off. The zipper seems to start by the chest area and zippers down to the rear. Unless I’m reading it wrong?

How does it work for them to go bathroom?

Answer by Chewy • May 30, 2025
This onesie features an easy access zipper for potty breaks and to check surgical sites if needed.

If my dog's weight is exactly between two sizes, should I order bigger or smaller?

Answer by Chewy • Oct 24, 2025
It is recommended to go with the larger size if your dog's weight falls between two sizes.

Does this cover the upper inside of the hind leg (groin area)?

Answer by Chewy • Jul 11, 2025
The Recovery Onsie covers the underside of the dog from the neck to the base of the tail, including the inside of the hind leg.

My Bassett hound has a hernia that she was born with. It has begun to hang down as she has gotten older (15yrs). This "onesie" gives it gentle pressure and keeps it from hanging down and rubbing on the porch steps when she goes out. She seems to like it. It was easy to put on and she hasn't pulled at it at all. I don't have to unzip it for potty breaks either which is a plus.

This suit took my dog's anxiety from the cone away.

My female dog had major anxiety wearing the cone the vet told me to keep on her after her spay. I had purchased this suit prior and switched and had her wear it

My female dog had major anxiety wearing the cone the vet told me to keep on her after her spay. I had purchased this suit prior and switched and had her wear it to protect the surgical sight, and it was a blessing. She healed quickly, it was easy to unzip for bathroom use, and it fit her perfectly. I highly recommend if you can keep an eye on your dog for the week after. My girl didn't chew on the breathable suit at all, but was told that some may.

Cone alternative

Is lightweight, completely covers his belly from his neck to his tail and is stretchy. It does reduce shedding and is a great alternative to a cone.

Works extremely well

I like hte way it zips up vs. the velcro that similar products have. It just stays in place and has no too tight spots. On and off is easy and access to taking

I like hte way it zips up vs. the velcro that similar products have. It just stays in place and has no too tight spots. On and off is easy and access to taking the pup to potty is just as easy. Using it for surgical recovery.

Recovery jacket. The best

If covered her full body. The zipper was in the bottom from the front to the back. If she needed to go potty she could without removing it. It helped her recover

If covered her full body. The zipper was in the bottom from the front to the back. If she needed to go potty she could without removing it. It helped her recover from a horrible allergic condition from outside sources. I’m actually going to purchase a second one. It’s so great. I’m buying a second as a spare. Washable. Great product.

Fit for a giant dog

We got this as an alternative to a post surgical cone. Absolutely perfect! She was used to wearing a dog diaper when she was in heat, so this seemed less clumsy

We got this as an alternative to a post surgical cone. Absolutely perfect! She was used to wearing a dog diaper when she was in heat, so this seemed less clumsy that a cone. Giants are hard to buy for. This fit perfectly on our 140 lb. Fila Brasiliaro. She has not licked the incision at all, and doesn't struggle against the suit. 40 years of dog ownership and this I the first time I have not struggled with post surgical licking.

It's probably better for females, but I don't recommend it for a young male. Bought so we wouldn't have to deal with the cone for neutering, and while it does help

It's probably better for females, but I don't recommend it for a young male. Bought so we wouldn't have to deal with the cone for neutering, and while it does help keep him from getting to the area, it does get soiled at times when he goes potty. I would just say get two so you can wash the one, but it's up to you if you want to spend that much
