Novaguard Recovery Collar Canine, Small/Medium 22-55 lbs, Head Measurement 6-7 inches

This was recommended by my vet. It is a huge improvement from the old fashioned huge cone. I had a couple problems. The instructions are not easy to follow. The first 2 times I used it, it popped open an was basically a big viser. I had to tape it. I'm hoping this will work.

My dog is an odd mix breed, Spitz/Maltese but looks a lot like a corgi. No other type of collar (e-collar or inflatable or even a muzzle) has kept him from licking/chewing any booboo he's ever had. He is OCD so he only makes it worse. This is adjustable, easy to use & so much better for my baby. He can still eat/drink & pick up his toys. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS!

The only reason it doesn't get one star is because my dog is admittedly odd-shaped, but I can't see how normal-shaped dogs wouldn't have the same problem. It's a fantastic idea, but the bottom of the cone cut into my dog's neck/chin area and he hated it. He was fine with other E-collars, I just thought we'd try this one because it was more narrow and he might not slam it into walls and furniture, but he hated it the second I put it on him. He'd been in a traditional E-collar for a couple of weeks (recurrent hot spot that he would NOT leave alone), so I thought he'd be happier with this one, but nope. Some sort of padding along the bottom edge MIGHT help, but I think it might still feel very restrictive. If anyone finds a magical alternative to traditional E-collars, let me know!

This product did not work well for my dog. While it did keep him from chewing on/licking his tail, the edges around his face easily rubbed and caused irritation. Now, I know that some of that was him trying to get it off, but even after adding padding, it still managed to scratch up his face in different spots - I will be going back to something that doesn't have edges he can open his face up with!If your dog doesn't try to get things off their face/neck, then go for it - it definitely gave more freedom of movement since it has a smaller... footprint? It was much easier for him to get around, it just didn't work for us.

What a wonderful invention. Thank you! It was great allowing my dog to have her independence to use the dog door and wear an e-collar. It took her a minute to get the hang of going through the door with it, but she figured it out. I LOVE it. Much less bumping into furniture and things as well. From now on this is the only collar I plan to use. I love how versatile it is for different sizing as well. Great Invention.

Really wanted to like this but after following instructions and fitting it properly, my dog can still reach his paws to lick them so it doesn't work for us.

My 20' pup is deaf and blind. He had surgery and needed to wear a cone. I knew the poor thing would be bumping into the furniture and would never find his way to get out the doggie door (believe it or not, he goes out to the fenced yard on his own.) When I saw the photo of a dog using the flap, I was sold. When it arrived, I was crushed. Way too big... sticks out too far. I donated it to a pet shelter. I hope they're not cussing me.

Hard to figure out how to put on, no instructions, good protection if you can get it on, but very easy for the dog to take off. Don’t waste your money
