All Four Paws Comfy Cone Pet Cone for Dogs, Cats, Small-Long, Black - Comfortable Soft Dog Cone Collar Alternative for After Surgery, Wound Care, Spay, Neuter - Dog and Cat Recovery Collar

This has been perfect for our lab/collie mix dog. She's about 48lbs and we got the Large. Fits her perfectly so she can't get at the hot spots we're trying to have treated during this allergy season. It's a little more expensive than some of the other cones, but so far it has been durable, she's comfortable and has been able to sleep in it fine, and the velcro is STRONG, so she's not able to just toss it off. Be forewarned - the velcro is very durable...she had her head on my husband's feet at one point, and got stuck...the velcro stuck to his socks. Which for entertainment purposes was hilarious, but it is something to watch out for. Like anything, dogs shouldn't be unsupervised. But all in all, worth every penny!

This cone is great. It is soft, so when my dog bumps into walls or my legs, it doesn’t scrape the wall or hurt me like the original plastic cone from the vet did. The stiff plastic inserts keep my dog from licking and scratching.

At one time or another dog owners will probably have to humiliate their dog by making them wear an "Elizabethan Collar" to keep them from scratching or licking surgical wounds. Our pug Spanky wore one, of course, after he got neutered and did quite well with it. But I hated the bulky plastic design. When recently we decided to get another one to prevent from licking some spots of irritated skin, I opted for this Comfy Cone. It looked a bit easier to use and not to mention, more comfortable. The Small Comfy Cone is designed for pets with necks measuring 10 to 14 inches around and 5.5 inches from neck. It just barely fits around my pugs neck. It has 3 Velcro straps on either side of the cone as well as a Velcro tab. With Spanky, we use the Velcro tab and press it on the first strip of Velcro on the other side. It also has little tabs which enable you to fit it to the animal's collar, but we don't use those. We only use this collar for short periods of time when we notice him starting to lick his tender spots. It's quick and easy to put on, so it works really well for us in this situation. The collar is also available in medium, large, and extra large sizes. The length from the neck is just perfect. It's not as long as the plastic E-collar he got from his vets. Spanky was always bumping into everything with his "satellite dish" as we called it. With his Comfy Collar, he doesn't bang into as many things. On the negative side, this collar, totally blocks their peripheral vision. I would advise using with caution outside of the house for that reason. Another nice feature is this cone folds flat so it's easily stored. I ended up throwing away his first plastic Elizabethan collar because it was too bulky to easily store. Spanky also is able to take naps with it on as it flattens out a bit when he lays down. The collar is easy to clean. I wipe it off on the inside with a damp towel. My one gripe is that the Velcro strips are dog hair magnets. Pugs are notorious shedders and so, of course, the Velcro strip is covered with Spanky's hair. The good news is that he doesn't have longer hair like a poodle or other breeds, so I don't have to worry about his hair getting stuck in there and then ripping it out when I take off the collar. Overall, a very good product and a better choice than a plastic E-collar.

absolutely pleased with this product. (size small for 13lb cat and could not have been any smaller and fit) lots of attention to detail and over-engineering. would have paid twice the price and still considered it a bargain. my cat really does notice the difference between this and the several other's i have tried. he relaxes way more with it on than the others.. it is obviously more comfortable for him. the loops for the collar.. the removable stays.. the cover for the unused velcro strip.. the tab closure.. all well thought out. this collar is leaps and bounds above the others, and i have tried 4 different ones in addition to the comfy collar. being able to fold back the collar so the cat can eat and drink absolutely does work. you can leave in all the stays or just leave in the ones that suit your cat's purpose. or leave them all out. this collar is totally configurable for your cat's situation. i suspect some of the neg reviews are due to overall frustration from having an animal that needs something like this in the first place. true sizing can be a challenge, but that is not due to design, but to the physiological diversity of cats in general. hey if it doesn't fit, go to the next size. it is obviously a challenge for all brands, as i see none have a 5 star rating. the comfy collar deserves a 5 star rating, though.. it really does. this is not just some cheap peace of flat plastic. as for the visibility issue.. meh. my cat could see no better with the "clear" collars (which are not truly visibility clear - look thru one and see). he acted no different from having the blurry vision which the clear collars offer and the opacity of the comfy collar. regarding the collar being heavy.. i just don't see it. this collar weighs no more than the other four flat plastic collars i purchased. my cat holds his head up just as high with this one as the others. actually, since he is more comfortable in the comfy collar, his movements and posture are more natural. of course, no cat wearing any kind of a head covering is going to be his normal graceful self. cats will always exaggerate the effect of anything added to their body. i paired the comfy collar with a cat harness. what a great system. you can leave the comfy collar more loose around the neck because it is connected to the harness via loops. just perfect. and unlike one other reviewer, it was simple for me to remove and replace the stays while the cat was wearing the collar. you just have to push them from the opposite end from the exit hole. one custom addition i did have to add (and i would likes to see comfy collar come up with something like this) was a neck band below the collar to prevent neck scratching. my cat was scratching his neck raw. i just took a cottage cheese tub and cut the bottom off and put it around his neck.. then put the comfy collar on. the bell of the tub rides on his shoulder and the comfy collar kind of just funnels in to the other end of the tub. the tub thingy is loose enough that it just spins when he scratches it, yet will not come off because of how the comfy collar bells out. anyway it solved the neck scratching problem. i know the folks at comfy collar could come up with something way better than my poor idea.. maybe a little wide band type collar made out of the same material as the comfy that velcros in place and used in conjunction with their collar... or maybe an extension that velcros into place. anyway, the comfy plus harness and my tub has my cat on the mend! i very highly recommend this solution for your cat or dog.

I was looking for a soft cone for my dog due to his recent eye surgery. I initially thought the plastic cone from the vet would be fine for the 10 days he needed it, but on the first day I noticed my dog bumping into everything and knocking over chairs, not to mention the sharp edges of the plastic cone. He was clearly very uncomfortable. I wanted something that was soft and easy to put on and take off, and this cone was exactly what I was looking for. My dog was much more comfortable wearing it and bumped into far fewer objects. I highly recommend a soft cone over a plastic cone.

Good quality, looks to be a comfy collar, but sadly I had to return as the size ( Medium Extra Long ), was too small for my Irish Setter. As it came from abroad it was a bit of a flaff to return, which was the only reason I did'nt reorder. Tried everywhere but it was'nt available in uk.

Per un pastore tedesco maschio ho comprato misura 25cm. Se chiude malapena, ma ho preferito così in modo que non fosse troppo ingombrante con la misura successiva. Resta belo aderente al collo, il cane non riesce a sfilarlo e non ho nemmeno usato con il collare. Le stecche, nel mio caso, non sono state necessarie. Più comodo senza. Avevo già usato in passato quelle gonfiabili. Sono senza dubbio i più confortevoli. Ma non sono adatti a tutti i casi. Questo invece è perfetto per ogni necessità. Un po' caro, ma è un prodotto di qualità. Consigliato l'acquisto.

Dieser Comfy Cone ist wirklich ein tolles Ding. Aber erstmal etwas Hintergrund: Da unser Fritzi mal wieder Probleme mit seiner Achillessehne hatte, hatte er bis vor kurzem noch einen Verband mit Stützschiene. Das war auch kein Problem. Als aber nur noch der weiche Verband dran kam, war es wieder soweit für den Kegel der Schande. Fritzi kann keinen weichen Verband tragen, weil es bei ihm *immer* scheuert. Nach einem Verband sah sein Bein schon aus, als wäre er zerfleischt worden. Daher läuft er ohne Verband um, und bekommt halt so einen Lampenschirm auf. Bis vor kurzem war es noch der übliche, aus Kunststoff. Diese Dinger, die erstens sowieso schon nervig genug sind, gehen bei uns ihm kaputt, zwar noch nutzbar, aber trotzdem ärgerlich. Wir hatten überlegt ihm einen dieser neuen, mit Schutzkante zu kaufen, die man ohne Halsband befestigen kann. Aber die wären zu schwer wieder abzumachen, damit Herr Fritzi sich im Garten erleichtern kann, denn mit Schirm kann er nicht. Zeit für den Comfy Cone! Erst war ich ja skeptisch, da das Teil ja nicht transparent ist. Aber ich habe es trotzdem mal probiert, und ich bereue es nicht. Fritzi schläft viel besser, und wir sind auch glücklich, dass er nicht mehr alles umrennt (und uns die Kunststoffkante des alten Schirms nicht mehr in die Kniebeuge gerammt wird). Der Schirm ist viel kürzer - das wichtige ist, dass die Schnauze nicht über den Schirm herausragt, dann sollte alles passen. Das messen ist sehr wichtig. Die Länge der Schnauze wird an der Seite des Kopfes, nicht über den Kopf gemessen. Die Reaktion von Fritzi ist auf jeden Fall positiv. Selbst beim Tierarzt ist er viel ruhiger. Anscheinend lebt Fritzi nach dem Motto "Was ich nicht weiss, macht mich nicht heiss" wenn es um die Präsenz anderer Hunde im Wartezimmer geht. Allgemein sind wir sehr, sehr zufrieden. Zusammenfassung: + viel gemütlicher für den Hund + viel weniger schmerzhaft wenn man es dann dochmal in die Kniekehle geschmettert bekommt + hält mehr aus als normale "Lampenschirme" + Durch geringere Länge ist das Interieur der Wohnung etwas sicherer vor dem Heruntergerissen werden. + Reflektierender Rand sorgt for witzige Effekte bei Photos mit Blitz. Und natürlich sehr gut für den Straßenverkehr. ;) +/- die fehlende Transparenz des Materials kann je nach Hund positiv oder negativ sein. Bei unserem war es auf jeden Fall sehr willkommen.

We're on our third comfy cone; loving the wider section of velcro with our recent purchase .These are very well made and stand up to our Ridgebacks who are tough on them while their split ears heal. Stitching is quality as we've never had an issue with it coming apart at the seams. Very warm and comfortable; once they settle in they're content in them as that double as a pillow. You'll need to have a collar as it's not included. It We have 2 Ridgebacks, approximately 90 lbs each, large is the perfect fit for them. This is the only cone we will buy now. It stands up to the heavy scratching while their ears heal. Calms them down as well; helpful if your dog has anxiety.

Se coloca muy facil y mi perro esta mucho mas comodo que con los collarines de plastico. Buen material y duradero.
