Suitical - The Original Dog Surgery Recovery Suit - 2XL - Blue Camouflage

Firstly, if you're anything like me your first thought is that this is too good to be true. Secondly, I don't normally do reviews so this in itself means I want to get my words out there. My dog is an 11 year old German Shepherd whose never had anything wrong with her and never had a surgery aside from getting fixed needed a surgery. I'll spare you details but she had to have exploratory surgery which means pretty large cuts near her lady bits and tummy. She has 21 staples as well as a drainage tube. The vet gave me one of those plastic cones, which I tried putting on her and while she was still getting over the anesthesia.. . She was horrified and seemed to almost do more harm than good. She was like a cat trying to back up in a corner and tear it off. So I looked only and found a comfy cone, bought that and took off work the next two days so I could watch her. Comfy cone comes in and I tried putting that on her. Yeah, no way. I'm gonna be honest, I'm an absolute sucker when my dog is in pain or uncomfortable so I did what they tell you NOT to do,take it off. If you're anything like me you already feel horrible about taking your dog to the vet. So I looked around and saw this recovery suit. Yeah no way too good to be true. At this point, I said screw it because two cones weren't working and we have two weeks to get through which I sure cannot take off two weeks to watch her. I ordered it, got it quickly within 2 days thanks to Prime. I put it on her which it fit absolutely perfectly. My dog is 85 pounds and I bought a large. I read the reviews and someone said the quality wasn't worth the money and the sizing was off. Not sure where they got that because I don't think the quality is bad at all. It feels exactly like a onesy that you buy a toddler. It has butt snaps too! It completely covers her tummy and lady area so it was perfect. Not too tight on her arms or leg holes either. I've never really put clothes on her so I didn't know what was gonna happen. Nothing.. Nothing happened. That was 4 days ago and she's left her staples alone ever since. I keep it on her while I'm at work, block off the stairs and she doesn't even itch. We have cameras in our house so I keep checking in while at work and you'd never even know she had surgery. I hate to sound like just another pandering review here but it saved her! She's completely comfortable and not in a scary cone. My girl never was a real chewer so I can see why some people didn't like the product if their dog ate it. If your dog is a chewer, maybe not the best idea but that has nothing to do with the product itself. If your dog is a chewer don't put something on them that they can chew! Duh guys! I know for me, this product helps me sleep at night knowing she won't mess with her 21 staples and I can go back to concentrating on work (gottta get the money back for the surgery too of course). I personally would like to thank whoever came up with this idea, it's brilliant and I'd love to buy you a beer. If you're debating on this product and your dog doesn't chew stuff, buy it! You will be so thankful. It's the most comfortable they can be while having to deal with staples or stitches. Just make sure you take it off before you let them out because it covers the dirty business end of the dog. For me, it's a routine when I get home.. "hi mom I didn't mess with my staples but I gotta pee so take this off!" done. Thank you so much for making such a simple yet effective product I'll forever be thankful!!

I ordered several other brands when prepping for my boy's neuter, but none of them fit. I happened upon the Suitical...it was what I was looking for! My standard Aussie is a very slim 50lbs, so requires a Medium in most brands; however, he is very long, which most Medium sizes were way too short. Sizing up in other brands just didn't work. But, the Suitical offered a Medium and a Medium+, which offered the extra length needed. Even with the extra inches, the length is still adjustable with the two sets of snaps. My boy doesn't seem to mind wearing it at all. In fact, he much happier than wearing his flexible cone or his donut. It allows him to move easily, doesn't get in the way or block his view, and allows him to drink and eat like normal. I love it because it's stretchy and easy to put on, despite his wiggliness. It covers his three incision sites completely without rubbing against them, and the suit is just fitted enough that he can't get to them. It's soft and has a cottony feel, which makes it comfortable for him, but seems durable. He's wrestled with his sister, and the suit stayed in place. Very happy with this product!

got this for my dog after her spay surgery since the cone was annoying for her. i really like the quality of the material, how easy it is to put on, and the fact that i don’t have to take it completely off to let her potty. she is a gsd/belgian malinois mix and weighs 72 pounds. her measurements are 16” neck, 32” chest, and 28” back for reference. i opted for the size large and it was a perfect fit. it is snug but the material is stretchy so it moves with her. it is a tiny bit more lose on her belly area where her incision is, but not to the point where the material is sagging or anything. i like that it fits like this so that her incision can breathe a bit and not become irritated by tight material. 10/10 would buy again!

I bought this for my male Basset Hound, post neuter surgery. We put a Comfy Cone on him and one of my other dogs didn't like it when he was wearing the cone and kept attacking him. We needed to find an alternative. This suit did the trick. He took one sniff in the suture area, realized he couldn't get to them, and I never saw him try to lick the sutures again. He seemed really comfortable in the suit and it was really easy to snap and unsnap for potty time. He still wears the cone at bedtime and when he goes outside to go potty - if we aren't with him. He wears a diaper because we have an intact female in the house (his daughter) and he marks, this suit fits just fine over the diaper. The only critique I have, is that for potty time, there's really no way to easily secure the flaps. The snaps on the chest are difficult to get to - in my opinion. Unfortunately, his daughter kept trying to disrobe him and kept grabbing hold of the tag. Eventually, she ripped it off and now there's a big hole in the shoulder. I should be able to sew it though and use the suit when we get her spayed, in a month or two. I will likely even buy one or two more suits, since we know in advance that we will be using them. I think this suit is a great alternative to the cone, for times when you will be around. I wouldn't trust it for long periods when they are alone (such as bedtime), because I doubt that it would hold up to much chewing. But, it's definitely a deterrent and worth buying, in my opinion.

My Basenji had a spay and hernia repair, and our vet recommended a surgical suit instead of a cone. I purchased two suits: this Suitical and another brand with Velcro straps. This one is by far superior and worth the extra money. I noticed some reviews mentioned fit issues, so I measured carefully before ordering an XS. It fits perfectly! The high neckline keeps it in place, even on my little escape artist, and she can't reach her stitches. Her partner in crime has also left the incision alone after an initial sniff or two. The rear snaps are secure and make bathroom breaks quick and easy. I don't find the snap-and-tab feature underneath useful for this purpose. Instead, I pull the suit up and tuck it into a front leg opening. I also removed the strap that attaches to the snap because I was concerned it might rub against her incision. The double-layer pocket makes it easy to check for drainage, although thankfully we haven't had any. The fabric is soft and stretchy, and my girl is cozy and resting comfortably. I'm very happy with this purchase!

I have owned dogs for 37 years and have been a breeder and trainer for 15 years. I have used multiple items over the years after surgeries and like this one the best. I've tried the doughnut, plastic cone and soft cones. This suit is made with cotton and performed better than I expected. I bought the XL size to fit my 2.5 year old 67lb standard poodle who was being neutered and also having gastropexy. Gastropexy is a surgical procedure performed in dogs with larger chests to prevent gastric dilatation and volvulus (GDV), commonly known as bloat. I needed to cover his stomach and privates. The suit covered both spots well! I brought the suit with me when picking my boy up from the vets office. The vet technician put it on him before I took him home. It was easy to put on and the vet tech said she thought it was a good quality surgical suit and she has seen many. I like that the opening in the back to go to the bathroom had snaps not Velcro as sometimes dogs get afraid of the sound Velcro makes when its pulled apart. When I removed the surgical suite from the box I noticed that it has a pocket for an ice pack in the tummy area. I don't remember reading that when I purchased it and thought that was a nice feature, however as I didn't need to use ice I don't have any feedback on that functionality of the suit. My boy wore the suit for 12 days straight. He did lick the suit off and on where he had surgery until I would catch him and tell him to stop. The suit would stay a little wet but didn't seem to bother him and dried nicely. When you bring the dog out to go to the bathroom, you unsnap the back and roll it up. There is a tab that you use to snap it in place. I did notice for the boys that the bottom/underside didn't pull up far enough on the body nor have a snap for the underside so I rolled it up and tucked the snapped flaps into the armpit area so the pee stream would not hit the back flaps as they would hang down from his tummy. I washed the suit in semi-warm water and air dried. It came out just fine.

I have a 75 lb female Labrador, age 1 1/2. She was spayed recently and I got this suit for her as an alternative to wearing a cone. Fabric is soft and pattern is cute. My dog didn’t mind wearing it. She likes the quiet snaps as she’s not a fan of Velcro. Main issue with the suit is the sizing. I went with a Large. She is 18” neck, 31” chest, 33” length. Neck and chest are a good fit. But it ended up being baggy around her hips and rear. I had hoped that the snaps would have allowed for more sizing customization but there are only two options both of which are too loose for her. This also means that she can stick her nose into the back leg holes which is a bummer. I think that the sizing would be good for dogs who are shaped like a rectangle meaning that the chest and hips are even in size. If you’re looking for a suit for a puppy with a broad chest and slim hind quarters— I’d skip this suit.

Worked well for my 80+ pound German Shepherd. I used it in combination with a donut and later with a cone. It was easy to on and off and easy to clean. My dog didn’t seem to mind wearing it and he can be picky. I bought 2 so he could wear one while I cleaned the other. It would be nice if there was more ability to adjust the fit / length around the tail. I found it was too baggy between his legs at times so he was able to get to the protected area after being neutered.

Visto che la mia cucciola è appena stata sottoposta alla classica operazione di sterilizzazione ho pensato bene di acquistare un collare Elisabetta per evitare che possa "darsi da fare" con i punti di sutura... Purtroppo il modello acquistato si è rivelato fin troppo facile da togliere (o la mia Birba è troppo furba), così sono passato ad un modello preso direttamente da un veterinario, davvero pesante per la mia piccola e quindi alla fine ho deciso che fosse il caso di trovare qualcosa di meno invasivo. Tra le tante proposte presenti su Amazon, ho preso questa tutina realizzata appositamente per cani che hanno subito operazioni chirurgiche. La tutina viene venduta in differenti misure e seguendo la tabella presente nella scheda del prodotto ho scelto la taglia S. Da quanto ho potuto vedere le taglie hanno range abbastanza ampi per cui nonostante la lunghezza di 41 cm (dall'inizio del collo all'inizio della coda) ho preso questo modello che rientra nel range descritto per la taglia S. Come potete vedere nel video e nelle fotografie, la tutina va bene anche se risulta purtroppo un tantino lunga. A Parte questo funziona perfettamente ed è anche molto comoda da mettere/togliere e grazie alla presenza di ben 4 bottoni di chiusura per lato è anche sicura ed impossibile da togliere senza l'uso di due mani. Nella parte interna è presente una piccola cinghietta con tanto di bottone automatico per poter arrotolare e fissare la tutina durante le escursioni o quanto si deve portare il proprio "amico a 4 zampe" per i classici bisognini. Nella parte interna (zona pancia) è presente una tasca imbottita che può essere usata per inserire cotone o altro materiale assorbente. In generale è davvero un ottimo prodotto, nel mio caso mi dispiace solo aver preso la misura S, forse andava meglio la XS ma oramai l'ho utilizzata e non mi sembra il caso di restituirla. Spero che questa recensione vi sia stata utile.

Cute and great fit Didn’t try to lick incision so was a perfect purchase post surgery for bernadoodle

Compré la M para mi perro mediano de 19kg y le queda bien. Se puede mover sin problema y se siente cómoda la tela.

Our bulldog was spayed so needed something to cover her tummy scar for a few days. My advice would be to measure your pet correctly to achieve a perfect fit. I did find putting the suit on upside down worked for us so the clip to pull the suit up so they can pee pee etc was onher back rather than on her tummy scar. But overall I do recommend as it did the job and washed beautifully
