Coodeo Dog Recovery Suit Prevent Licking, Biting (S, Blue)

Within 3 days of splinting a broken bone in her foot, the splint had to be removed due to abrasion from it not fitting properly. Now we have a two-fold issue. Keeping her sedated enough to stay off the leg and not licking the wound. The cone made her frantic so I had to find a solution. Thank you Amazon for expedited shipping! I purchased the 2x based on her back length. She is an 85 pound golden. This is fitting very well on the body. It’s loose enough to not bother her and easily adjustable over the hips and straps from chest to hips. The legs are too long but easily rolled up. She is tolerating it very well. It’s study and soft. I’d recommend this for anyone needing the piece of mind that a leg wound is protected and their fur baby is comfortable during the healing process.

My Staffie underwent TPLO surgery and the lick sleeve we were provided is a nice soft polyester but keeps falling off his backside. I had high hopes for this sleeve having the collar and straps to keep it up, especially allowing him to potty without taking it off. Being waterproof is not really a concern, since his post-op is primarily inside. We were shocked and disappointed with how stiff and abrasive the legs are with this suit. It was difficult to get on and off over the wounded knee and did not have a soft inner lining against his shaved leg. All a sleeve needs to do is cover the area to prevent licking, we just don’t need the rough and tough body armor of this thing.

1. I think this product would work great for what it's intended for. IF you size properly, the compression is there, it doesn't fall off, and is breathable! 10 out of 10 I however, needed something for a slightly different purpose, and this product also works perfect! I couldn't be happier with the quality! What I used it for: My Senior Large Doodle developed a very bad pressure sore...Wearing a cone 24/7 is not an option. These "pants" have protected the area from his "licker" and prevented him from being able to pull of bandage. What's better, I sized up....and was able to put a "donut" under the "pants" allowing for my Dood to move freely and still have that area padded when he sits. Picture shows t-shirt sticking out...I used as a cover for the donut to help keep it clean.... He is able to potty #1 & #2 with it on. This is a life saver...I highly recommend.

We purchased this Coodeo Dog Recovery Suit because our dog has wounds on her belly and inner thighs that she is continuously licking & making worse. We have spent a small fortune on other means to prevent her from licking, such as an inflatable protective collar (see my other reviews), post-surgical recovery suits, sprays and ointments, etc. but as long as she is able to get tongue to wound, the licking persisted. We finally found the Coodeo Dog Recovery Suit with works well with one cavaet. The Coodeo Dog Recovery Suit is well made. The materials are heavy-duty, needed for dogs who do not take kindly to any kind of restrictive coverings, as is the stitching and nylon velcro traps. Many other post-surgical body suits are made such that they tend to slide back and off the tail end of the dog. The Coodeo Dog Recovery Suit has a vest piece that terminates in body-length straps that go under the dog's front armpits, around her shoulders, and then you crisscross the straps behind the shoulders and affix the velcro ends to the hindquarters of the dog. Provided is a velcro band to affix where the two straps crisscross to maintain their location on the dog's bad. This system results in a body suit that can not slide back (nor forward) and remains in place for as long as it is on the dog. There is one negative we found: there is openings on either side where the hind legs meet the torso, allowing a tongue to get to those areas. We rectified that by using a spray-on bandage (see my other reviews) that has a bitter taste to discourage licking, and this combination has proven effective for our dog. That spray's discouraging taste and scent does not last a full day, but does last long enough for over-night, so should the dog awaken during the night, they are discouraged from licking that one open spot. The Coodeo Dog Recovery Suit does effectively cover most of the belly & chest, as well as the thighs and legs, so it offers the greatest protective area. The 1 point deducted on my score is for the openings at the thigh-torso areas. The company could easily rectify this by the addition of fabric flaps, much like diapers. If your dog does NOT have a wound at that specific area, this suit will provide 100% protective coverage.

My dog suffers from some skin issues and because of this she likes to chew on her back legs. My first order of this I would have a large but sadly it ran a little small for the breed of dog I have. I am returning it and getting a large but ultimately I think it's pretty easy to use and the appearance isn't terrible.

Quality material but our dog was able to take it off pretty easy.

We like this product very much. Our 100lb-GSD has a partial ACL tear, but we do not want him to have a surgery yet because he is so active that we were afraid he would not stay still and the recovery would be hard. We bought this suit for the future surgery recovery, but moreover, we hoped this would prevent him from aggravating his current knee injury. To our surprise, it works to slow him down. When we see him limping, we put the suit on for a day or two, and he walks better. I guess the suit support his weight on his bad knee, too? The only feature I do not like about this product is the shoulder belts. They tend to slide down, and he somehow wiggles out of it. One Velcro on the belt is placed so low they do not stay tight over his shoulder. I make a knot close to his neck to prevent the belts from loosening. For a big dog like him, 2XL is the only option. It's lose all around, but XL was so much smaller that he could not fit in at all. I bought 2 to keep the suit clean.

Garbage. The medium is was too small and the large is way too big! The extreme size difference was very frustrating and left me with an utter lack of options. Also the awkward shape and very stiff fabric made it impossible to fit any normal dog body comfortably. For reference I have a 44lb staffy/boxer mix. Product just was not smartly made at all.

looks great, but would not fit our dog. looks like great quality

My dog develops hot spots in the summer and he had a particularly bad one on his leg this year, which he insisted on licking obsessively. I used these "pants" along with the antibiotics and anti-itch medication that the vet prescribed. If my dog put his mind to it he could get them off, or somehow manage to get under them to lick his wound, but they certainly helped. And I do like that there's an opening for the dog to do his business while keeping them on - sometimes this type of garment needs to be removed completely, which of course is very inconvenient.
