Suitical Recovery Suit Dog, Small, Pink Camouflage

I hate the horrible plastic cones and was dreading having my dog spayed. My dog still likes to be crated at night and I knew the cone was going to make it difficult for her to settle. Stupidly, I didn't purchase one before surgery and we all spent a very restless, uncomfortable first night with the cone. The extra cost for quick delivery was worth every single penny and this coat is one of the best purchases I've ever made. I take it off for a while during the day when I know I can watch her. I was confused about the sizing when I was making the purchase and had to use other people's reviews as a guide to which size I should get. My dog is a smaller Labrador and I opted for the large size but probably could have got away with a medium+. It fits her nicely on the upper part of the body and although it is a tiny bit saggy around the back end, it is covering the wound and letting it breathe so is the perfect size. The poppers at the rear make it easy for toileting. The size guide on the packaging is very clear and it would have been useful to see that beforehand. If it helps anyone, the guide, which is based on length, is as follows: XXXS & XXS Chihuahua; XS Yorkshire Terrier; Small Maltese, Pug; Small+ Cocker Spaniel, Beagle; Medium Chow Chow, Poodle; Medium+ Collie, Labrador; Large Labrador, Boxer; XL German Shepherd, Rottweiler; XXL St Bernard.

So I bought this suit in the wrong size. It was one size too big but that was an error on my part.5* for this as it’s really well made. Nice soft material. Thick enough that if he was to try itching or nibbling at something he shouldn’t through it, it would unlikely cause any damage or prolong healing.I had to use hair bands to tie up parts of the material to make sure it wouldn’t allow him to get to his stictches.I love that you can un-pop it by the tail. It can then be rolled up, as secured with another popper on the underside. This is great for when my dog was going outside for a wee. I didn’t have to faff too much, or take it all the way off. I could just roll it up.He also didn’t seem to mind wearing it either so must be comfortable.And I was so pleased to find something like this, as he is a rescue and the cone petrified him.

Excellent product. I needed something to put on my baby after her operation to spay her. When I picked her up she had a cone on her head and the feeling of dread set in pretty fast. There is no way that I could do a week of cone head with her, she is an ultra hyper dog and has enough issues with wearing a collar. So, I looked online and found this post op suit from suitical.The suit arrived this morning and as I took it out of the package, I was pleasantly surprised to find the material was of excellent quality, as was the stitching and pop buttons. The cotton is thin but sturdy so perfect for my girl to wear in the house without feeling too constrained. At the crotch and belly section of the suit is a layer of blue padding which I imagine would be great for any leaky wounds.However, being a fool I did not measure my dog and just expected the small to fit fine. I was wrong by a good 15cm length and diameter. To rectify this the best I could, I have just thrown in a few lines of stitches here and there and it now fits. Sort of.So, for my review I would say that this is a must have item for any fussy doggie. The quality is superb and worth the money 10 times over. However!!! Don't be a fool like me! Measure your dog and make sure you get the correct size. The small is a big fit and I suspect it would be great for a normal sized staffy. Do not expect it to fit a Boston terrier, Yorkshire terrier or Lhasa also ( my three dogs)Measure twice, buy once and avoid putting silly poor quality stitches in a great item for your dog cupboard!!

I bought this prior to getting my dog spayed. The original plan was to keep her in the Cone of Shame for the first week, and then in the suit for final healing. However, on the first night home she was absolutely terrified by the cone, so at 3am I put her suit on. She wore it for about two weeks following her op, and it was a god send. I washed it and tumble dried it every few days during that time, and it always looked as good as new.Would really recommend this to anyone.

I was initially very sceptical about the thought of the dog wearing a onesie after surgery but it was suggested by one of the nurses at the vets who had used a suit on her own dog post surgery. It proved to be an Excellent option. The dog accepted the suit with no problem and we spent a couple of trial evenings before surgery making sure she was comfortable. She wore the suit for entire 10 day post op period and wound healed beautifully. She was only allowed out in the garden so the pink suit was very acceptable, I suspect if I'd needed to walk the dog in public the suits colourful appearance would have raised comments!! She was able to move round the house freely and even sleep in her crate as usual which would not have been possible with a traditional cone. The suit washed well and had practical babygro type fasteners for ease when she needed to toilet. We bought size large which was loose on our 7 month old bearded collie pup but this meant it was not rubbing on her wound so worked well. Well worth the money.
