I neutered my male dog yesterday and he was on with the E collar(cone) but from yesterday he wants to take it off non stop and didn’t sleep at night at all. And he partially ruiend the cone and managed to chew it! Is there another way except the cone
The problem with the surgical suit is that it may not let the incision breathe as well as it should in order to quickly heal. You could try an inflatable collar - it looks like an airplane pillow and sold at the pet stores. Make sure you get a big enough size - if it is too small it won't work. This works well with most incisions on the body but doesn't work for anything on a leg/foot. I hope this helps!

Nala will be getting spayed very soon and I was wondering what would be the best effective recovery cone to use on her considering she is a semi large dog. As well make her feel more comfortable
Hello, thank you for using Boop by Petco! I do not think those pillow ones on the neck work very well. But the soft-sided cones you can certainly use. The hard plastic ones are not really recommended. Dogs don’t resist the soft ones as much as the hard ones. Just make sure that the cone is long enough to go past the end of her nose or she wilI still be able to lick at the incision. Hope this helps. Best wishes.

Hi my dog has cancer and she has a wound that’s bleeding on her back right side. I’m trying to get her not to lick it. Is there anything I can put over it to prevent her from doing so?
Hello. Poor baby. You can use an Elizabethan cone to keep her from reaching the area. There are the rigid plastic ones which might stress her out, so I would find one of the soft, flexible ones, or one that blows up like a soft neck collar. They also make body suits for dogs that can be used after surgeries & to protect wounds. You can ask your vet for a recommendation but here is one you can buy on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Suitical-Recovery-Suit-Dogs-medium/dp/B00W2EHJWE. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

I wouldn't have done it without your amazing help doctor! Would a recovery suit for her be good enough? And I've been wondering if I should crate her?
You are too kind! Yes, a recovery suit would be a great option if Bella will wear one, and crating her is also an excellent idea. It would keep her from running and jumping, and would help keep her quiet.

Try getting her one of the inflatable donut type collars to prevent her from getting to it. They are available at most large pet supply stores. I would contact your veterinarian today instead of waiting until Monday.
