Suitical Recovery Suit for Dogs

So I bought this and a comfy cone for my pups recovery from her spay surgery. Needless to say the comfy cone is being returned as my dog hated it. She absolutely loves this suit has she is not restricted at all... I would definitely suggest buying two so you can have a backup if they soil themself. My only issue was forgetting to unsnap her prior to putting on her leash and she had an accident in the suit... I reordered a smaller suit as my 31 lb pit 5 month old pup was too small 4 the small plus.. I found it a little too loose around her abdomen. So definitely size down if you feel your dog is between sizes. I can't believe I didn't find this product sooner and as long as your dog isn't a serious So I bought this and a comfy cone for my pups recovery from her spay surgery.

I can't believe I didn't find this product sooner and as long as your dog isn't a serious destructive chewer or very anxious it should be perfect for post-surgery recovery for most dogs. FYI, It is a t-shirt like material that is breathable so basically a onesie for your dog, so if your dog tends to be on the destructive side they may be able to rip it open. … more

The dreaded cone, the troublesome bandages. On a previous surgery for my dog we went through rolls of gauze and tape and Ace bandages. She’d always manage to wriggle out of them and lick and chew at her stitches. The head cone only added to her misery. When she had to have another surgery I immediately ordered this suit. It fits great, though I had to take a little tuck at the bottom. NOTE to MANUFACTURER: another set of snaps for adjustability would be great. It’s easy on and easy off. It’s comfortable. The dog doesn’t mind it at all. She hasn’t tried to chew it or get it off. A tab inside with a snap allows the bottom to be rolled under for potty breaks. Most importantly her stitches The dreaded cone, the troublesome bandages. On a previous surgery for my dog we went through rolls of gauze and tape and Ace bandages.

Most importantly her stitches have stayed clean and are healing faster. It’s been super helpful for me too not to have to constantly be monitoring and rewrapping bandages. Added bonuses - she looks SuperCool and I think it makes her feel SuperBetter! … more

Sushi, a 7.5 lb 11 mo old Maltese, was scheduled for his neuter. He is high anxiety, I work and i dreaded the cone days. Looked for alternatives. This onsie is phenomenal. Can he bend and lick? yes but there is a pocket inside I put a squared cut diaper in, so he can't nip at it or do anything but lick the suit. It rolls easily for potty breaks. I bought the Kong doughnut collar for when I work. He has been as comfortable as you can be. He sleeps well, eats well, doesn't fight the Kong collar. I have had animals with surgery before and the cones are just intolerable. this was a phenomenal alternative.

This suit was exactly what I needed for my two labs who just had neuter surgery. We’d been battling with cones for the past 4 days, and I couldn’t wait for these suits to arrive. They arrived today and we put them on right away. They are nicely made and the fit was perfect. However, there is enough of a gap in the back leg holes that our dogs were able to get at and lick their stitches within 5 minutes. We are really bummed and had high hopes for this product. Instead it’s $75 down the drain and several more days of the cone battle...

My lab was just spayed. She needed protection of her sutured area. This is soft, breathable, and has rear tabs that can be snapped and unsnapped easily so she can relieve herself. She does not mind wearing it all the time. At night, just to make sure she does not get creative and start to bite at the suit when we are not watching, we also put her in the Kong Cloud Collar (also purchased at Chewy). It is soft and she uses it like a pillow. She did not like the plastic cone she came home from the vets with. In addition, the recovery suit washes well if it gets dirty. She is happy.

This is light years better than the dreaded cone or the inflatable collar. My dog in theory was a large (a lab) but I bought both a large and an XL. Turns out, probably since she is a bit overweight, the XL was best. Instead of always having the back cover her butt, I snapped the 2 straps around her belly to the top, which means I don't have to undue it everytime she goes to the bathroom. It covers her belly incision and serves the purpose. She tolerates it better than I thought she would. I suggest buying the 2 closest to your dogs size so I for sure works.

I was looking for something to keep my Labrador from getting to her stitches after her cancer surgery. Cones have never worked in the past and I thought we would give this a try. It was awesome! I brought an extra large . It was a little big but , it worked well. We decided to order another one so we could keep her as clean as possible. Got the large this time and it was perfect. The shipping was so quick, we got it the next day, just in time for her recovery. I am happy to say she is now cancer free! Thank you Chewy you are always there when we need you.

My dog had spay surgery and I put this on her when she came home. It was easy to put on and she liked it much better than the comfy collar I had previously purchased. The only design that should be incorporated would be an easier roll up with maybe a Velcro strip to keep it out of the way when she had to do her business. I did find a way to finagle the snaps but had to get creative. Otherwise I definitely recommend it. Washed great too.

The Suitical worked like a charm for my 7-month-old German Shepherd after her spaying. I thought that, as a German "Shredder", she would bite at the suit and get to the incision, but she didn't at all. She appeared quite comfortable in it, and never minded when we put it on or took it off. It unsaps ans rolls up easily to let her do her business. ...... and it ended up in the laundry about 5 times when we forgot to unsnap it ..... so it's quite durable.

Got this for my large Airedale 90+ pounds (ordered the XL) after his neuter, gastropexy, and hernia repair surgery. This suit is awesome! No more having him running into us with the huge plastic cone. He also seems so much happier in this than the cone, able to eat, drink, and sleep completely normally and we don’t have to worry about him getting to any of his incisions! Highly recommend for post-op care. PS: if you’re dog is long order the next size up otherwise it will be too short
