FAQs

Can my dog go to the bathroom while wearing the shirt?

Yes, the shirt is specifically designed to allow your dog to urinate and defecate without the need to remove the garment.

How do I determine the right size for my dog?

Measure your dog from the collar to the base of the tail. If your measurement falls between two sizes, opt for the smaller size.

Is this a replacement for a medical cone?

Yes, it is designed as a professional, comfortable alternative for dogs that struggle with or find the traditional plastic medical cone too stressful.

How often should I wash the medical shirt?

You should wash the shirt as needed to keep the wound area clean, typically whenever it becomes soiled or at least every few days.

Can this be used for all types of surgery?

It is suitable for most torso and abdominal surgeries, but consult your veterinarian to ensure it provides the necessary coverage for your dog's specific needs.

Troubleshooting

The shirt feels too loose or slips off

Verify you have measured correctly from collar to tail base; if you are between sizes, the smaller size is usually preferred.

Dog is showing signs of agitation

Ensure the fabric is not bunching or pulling at the joints and that it is not too tight around the neck or leg openings.

Staining or buildup on the fabric

The shirt is machine washable; launder according to the care label to maintain cleanliness and hygiene.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your pet receives the maximum benefit, follow these guidelines for selection and maintenance. First, measure your dog from the collar to the base of the tail to identify the correct size. If your pet's measurements fall between two sizes, it is recommended to choose the smaller size to ensure a snug fit. The shirt is designed to be easily pulled over the head and secured; ensure all straps are adjusted properly. For care, the garment is machine washable, which is critical for maintaining a sterile environment for wounds. Always inspect the shirt after washing to ensure it has retained its shape and elasticity.
