What can I put over my dog's wound to stop them from licking it?

Poor Panda! Unfortunately the safest and most effective thing in this case is going to be the E-collar. Ask your vet for tips on sizing and securing it to Panda. In some cases, a little anti-anxiety medication or sedation for a day or two can really help him keep that cone on. If it is truly a small graze, it is likely to heal in the next couple days as long as he keeps away from it. I also recommend keeping him inside if at all possible for the next couple days.

You can use a cone so she can’t reach it. I’ve also just dressed then in dog pajamas or an infant tee shirt or onesie. Usually cats don’t mind wearing clothes and that will protect the skin while still letting it breathe. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Lucky.

Thank you for contacting PetCoach with your question about Roxi. Oh no, that is bad! You definitely should call the vet in the morning, but until then, we have to stop the licking or it will make things worse. Put an Ecollar on her to keep her from licking it. You can get one at a pet store or make one at home. If you want to make one at home, I will put a link below on how to make it. Try to get her into a vet tomorrow. I hope this helps! http://dogsaholic.com/care/homemade-dog-cone.html

Hi and thank you for your question! A cone would be best but a belly band could also work. Spray would not be recommended. That could irritate the incision. A baby onesie put on him will help. Not only is it cute, but it will keep him him licking his incision area. I hope this helps!

Hi, you could make a cone, but to be honest one bought from the store or vet is going to fit Luke much more comfortably. The best alternative to a cone I have seen was a very plush travel neck pillow that attached at the edges so it went all around the neck. This stopped the dog licking a spot on her mid back. Also as a temporary fix you could dress a small t shirt or even boxers over him to cover the lesion.

Yes, the bleeding from the sore is likely due to her licking at it. You can get an Ecollar from the pet store or you can make one at home to keep her from licking at it. You can also cut a shirt to fit her that may cover the sores and prevent her from licking at them. http://dogsaholic.com/care/homemade-dog-cone.html

Get an elizabethan collar that is firm, plastic and extends past his nose. It must extend past his nose! Make sure it is tight enough (but you should be able to fit two fingers between the collar and his skin so not too tight) so it doesn't slide down: https://www.amazon.com/Total-Pet-Health-Elizabethan-Collars/dp/B00FXKSWUC/ref=sr_1_9?crid=355YAQ65NHWAK&keywords=elizabethan+collar+for+dogs&qid=1580920059&s=pet-supplies&sprefix=elizabethan%2Cpets%2C253&sr=1-9 Then get one of the donut elizabethan collars to wear behind the plastic elizabethan collar to limit Shavy's movement: https://www.amazon.com/Protective-Inflatable-Collar-Dogs-Collar/dp/B0725C3RJX The links above are just to show you what I'm talking about. This method should stop him from reaching the incision. It is very important to keep him from licking the incision because he could open it up or cause an infection. Have him examined by the veterinarian if needed. I hope this helps.
