Comfy Cone Pet Cone for Dogs, Cats, X-Small, Tan - Comfortable Soft Dog Cone Collar Alternative for After Surgery, Wound Care, Spay, Neuter - Dog and Cat Recovery Elizabethan-Collar

I recently purchased a Comfy Cone for my dog after his surgery, and I cannot express how much of a difference it has made in his recovery! This product is a game-changer for any pet owner looking to keep their furry friend comfortable and safe. So much better than the plastic ones they send you home with.**Comfort and Design:** The Comfy Cone is incredibly well-designed. Unlike traditional plastic cones, which can be stiff and uncomfortable, this cone is soft and padded, allowing my dog to move around freely without feeling restricted. The fabric is gentle against his skin, and he seems much more at ease wearing it.**Easy to Adjust:** The adjustable straps make it easy to get the perfect fit for my dog, ensuring it stays securely in place without being too tight. I appreciate that he can still eat, drink, and comfortably lay down while wearing it. Plus, the cone doesn't interfere with his peripheral vision, which helps him feel less anxious.**Durability:** The material is sturdy and seems to hold up well against any wear and tear. I’ve found it to be easy to clean, which is a must-have for post-surgery care. A quick wipe down or toss in the washing machine keeps it looking fresh and hygienic.**Peace of Mind:** Knowing that my dog is protected from licking or biting at his surgical site gives me great peace of mind. The Comfy Cone does an excellent job of keeping him from accessing the area while still allowing him to be comfortable and relaxed.**Overall Experience:** I highly recommend the Comfy Cone for any pet owner needing a recovery solution for their dog. Its thoughtful design, comfort, and effectiveness have made a significant difference in my dog's post-surgery experience. I’m so glad I chose this product—it’s truly a must-have for any pet recovery toolkit!

Second time purchasing, first is still intact and working great (about 6 years and 4 surgeries later) but had to size up for my lab. My lab mix is an ornery freaking dog, received a similarly priced cone with some clear plastic in it at the beginning of needing coned and he destroyed it, like shards of broken plastic everywhere, in about 2 days. New one has been a lifesaver, he can’t take it off, he can’t break it, and it hurts a hell of a lot less on the back of my calves. Highly recommend for your problem pups!

At one time or another dog owners will probably have to humiliate their dog by making them wear an "Elizabethan Collar" to keep them from scratching or licking surgical wounds. Our pug Spanky wore one, of course, after he got neutered and did quite well with it. But I hated the bulky plastic design. When recently we decided to get another one to prevent from licking some spots of irritated skin, I opted for this Comfy Cone. It looked a bit easier to use and not to mention, more comfortable.The Small Comfy Cone is designed for pets with necks measuring 10 to 14 inches around and 5.5 inches from neck. It just barely fits around my pugs neck. It has 3 Velcro straps on either side of the cone as well as a Velcro tab. With Spanky, we use the Velcro tab and press it on the first strip of Velcro on the other side. It also has little tabs which enable you to fit it to the animal's collar, but we don't use those. We only use this collar for short periods of time when we notice him starting to lick his tender spots. It's quick and easy to put on, so it works really well for us in this situation. The collar is also available in medium, large, and extra large sizes.The length from the neck is just perfect. It's not as long as the plastic E-collar he got from his vets. Spanky was always bumping into everything with his "satellite dish" as we called it. With his Comfy Collar, he doesn't bang into as many things. On the negative side, this collar, totally blocks their peripheral vision. I would advise using with caution outside of the house for that reason.Another nice feature is this cone folds flat so it's easily stored. I ended up throwing away his first plastic Elizabethan collar because it was too bulky to easily store. Spanky also is able to take naps with it on as it flattens out a bit when he lays down.The collar is easy to clean. I wipe it off on the inside with a damp towel. My one gripe is that the Velcro strips are dog hair magnets. Pugs are notorious shedders and so, of course, the Velcro strip is covered with Spanky's hair. The good news is that he doesn't have longer hair like a poodle or other breeds, so I don't have to worry about his hair getting stuck in there and then ripping it out when I take off the collar.Overall, a very good product and a better choice than a plastic E-collar.
