The Comfy Cone
My dog had surgery that was going to require almost a month of the use of an e-collar while the leg healed. The first few days I tried to use the "more comfortable than the old ones" e-collar that the vet provided. My dog was more distressed by the e-collar than the surgery because it was so big and had no flexibility at all. Also, I think because it is see through it confuses the dogs more because they can see things but then bump into them!
I found the Comfy Cone online in an article by someone whose dog had the same surgery and the same issues with the vet-provided e-collar. From the moment I put it on my dog he has been GREAT with it! The cone is not as big as a plastic e-collar and I was afraid my dog may still be able to get to his leg, but he never tried and it is big enough to make attempts very difficult. The cone is very flexible so he can sleep in total comfort. Even though he does not have the ability to see out of the sides like the plastic, I think it is...
Good product, but the sizes are odd....
Great product, but the sizes are really odd. I tried the small and it was too small for a 10 lb dog, so I ordered the medium which looks like it's more for a 50 lb dog. There isn't anything in the middle. It would have been great, but the types of dogs that it will fit (according to the product description) did not seem accurate. Thankfully, I purchased through Amazon, so the return was easy. I just wish they had a size in between the small and the medium for a 10 - 20 lb dog.
Totally Recommended
I'd recommend this cone before anything else. Our dog (laborador)can actually see around this flexible cone. You can't beat it for the price. You can wash it when it gets dirty and it seems to keep it's shape. Our dog hasn't been able to get it off or reach his hot spots. We regret spending $50 on an inflatable, blue round tube that makes him look like he's ready to dive off into the lake. Not to mention he was able to get to his hot spots with this blue tube. The comfy cone is definitely the way to go.
