The Recovery Suit from Suitical is a type of romper made from lightweight, breathable fabric. It is easy to put on, with press studs at the base of the tail. For incontinence or oestrus, a panty liner or pad can be inserted into the Recovery Suit. The Recovery Suit for dogs is also available in camouflage print.
The Recovery Suit can be used for different purposes:
After surgery: using the Recovery Suit, your dog will suffer less stress, anxiety and uncertainty. Your dog can't reach the wound, but will be more comfortable as the shirt is not too tight around the belly and there is sufficient air flow to the wound, so it will remain dry. The inside of the suit is light blue, so any fluid leakage is easily visible. Animals are often shaved for surgery, which can cause the body temperature to drop. The Recovery Suit helps keep recovering animals warm..
For skin diseases: The Recovery Suit limits injuries to the skin caused by scratching and biting where protection is needed..
For oestrous and incontinence: The Recovery Suit reduces the risk of blood or urine stains in your house. Unlike similar products, the suit is very difficult for your pet to remove himself..
By measuring your dog from the collar to the base of the tail, you can estimate the size needed. If in doubt, tighter is better than too loose. The following sizes are based on the length from the neck to base of the tail, as shown on the image with the arrow.
