Our read on this product
The traditional plastic cone of shame is a necessary evil for many pets recovering from surgery or injury, but it often makes for a miserable recovery. This inflatable collar offers a much softer, more comfortable alternative that allows your dog to eat, drink, and see their surroundings without obstruction. It inflates to create a plush, pillow-like barrier around the neck, which can also help soothe anxiety during a stressful time.
While it's designed to prevent licking and biting, it's worth noting that for some dogs, particularly those with longer snouts or more determined natures, this inflatable collar might not provide a robust enough barrier. It's also crucial to get the sizing right; a loose fit means your dog could potentially still reach wounds, while a too-tight fit would be uncomfortable and defeat the purpose of a gentle recovery.
What makes it stand out
- Provides a softer, more comfortable barrier than the typical rigid plastic Elizabethan collar.
- Allows for a natural range of vision, eating, and drinking, unlike many traditional cones that obstruct these functions.
- The inflatable design makes it easier to store when not in use compared to a bulky, rigid cone.
- Features a washable cover, making it easier to keep clean during a recovery period.
When this isn't the right fit
- Your dog has a very long snout or a body shape that might allow them to reach wounds around the neck or front legs.
- You need an absolutely impenetrable barrier for a highly determined pet who will not be deterred.
- Your dog struggles significantly with eating or drinking even with a standard cone.
Real-world notes
- It can be a bit tricky to get the inflation just right for a secure yet comfortable fit.
- Some dogs might still be able to reach certain areas depending on their flexibility and the location of the wound.
- The plush material can double as a comfortable neck pillow for naps, which dogs seem to appreciate.
- It's much easier to store when deflated compared to a bulky plastic cone.
Who might look elsewhere
- Animals Other Than Dogs
- Cats
- Pets with very long snouts or body shapes where the circular design may not provide adequate protection
- or pets requiring a more robust barrier.
