RECOVERY SUIT® DOG

We’re here to help you find the best size Recovery Suit® for your dog! To find the right size, measure the distance from the neck (collar) to the base of the tail, as explained in the instruction video, and fill in the required measurements in the size calculator below.

If your dog is somewhere between two sizes, we recommend choosing the smaller size. Please be aware that the amount of fur, weight, and body proportions (long back and short legs for example or a very broad chest compared to the rest of the body) of your pet might affect the size needed.

We know how important it is to be able to quickly dress and undress your dog, which is why our Recovery Suit® is made of soft and stretchy high-quality material. The Recovery Suit® has a snug fit to prevent your dog from wiggling out. It is important however to keep monitoring your dog if the snug fit isn’t too tight. Getting the Recovery Suit® on and off your dog is simple, so let’s take a look!

Step 1: Roll up the Recovery Suit® with the middle head opening in your hand. Make sure that the light blue inner layer is facing down. Insert your dog’s head through the opening.

Step 2: Followed by inserting one leg into the provided smaller leg opening and the other leg into the other remaining smaller opening.

Step 3: Now pull the Recovery Suit® over your dog’s body all the way to the back.

Step 4: The lower belly flaps must be pulled between the hind legs towards the upper part near the base of the tail.

Step 5: Secure the two flaps with the snaps/poppers. We advise to close all snaps/poppers to keep the suit perfectly in place. 

Step 6: Take a good look around the legs, neck and tail to see if there is enough room to move and breathe!

This easy to put on and off Recovery Suit® is specially designed on the anatomy of dogs and can therefore only be used for dogs.

Important information:

Consult your veterinarian when you want to use the Recovery Suit® for medical purposes. Your veterinarian can recommend a suitable treatment. Keep monitoring your dog regularly to make sure the fit is not too tight. We recommend keeping your dog under supervision of a responsible adult at all times while using the Recovery Suit®. Please consult your veterinarian if your dog’s behavior is changing or when your dog has excessive licking/chewing habits.

Washing instructions:

For longer usage, it is possible that the print of the Recovery Suit® and the label could fade over time. With the washing instructions below, this process can be delayed. Washing, maintaining and handling of delivered items always remains the responsibility of the customer.

Instructions:

• Always turn inside out for washing;
• Fasten all snaps/poppers before washing;
• We recommend using a laundry bag;

• Never put the Recovery Suit® in the dryer! Hang it out and let it air dry;
• Do not iron directly over the print and never too hot;
• Do not use bleach or other chemicals to clean the Recovery Suit®.

Using bleach and other chemicals can cause irritations to your dog’s wound, surgical area, hotspots or more…!

TIP! Little (peeing) accidents can happen while wearing the Recovery Suit®. To ensure that your dog remains protected, two Recovery Suits are often purchased. While one Recovery Suit® can be washed, the other can be worn. When your dog needs to wear the Recovery Suit® longer than a week, it’s always better to have a back-up!

Specifications:

The Recovery Suit® for dogs is toxic/lead free and is made of:

First of all, we want to explain why the Recovery Suit® is fully closed. In many cases, the surgical area for male dogs is very close to the urination area, for instance with neuter procedures. To give all kind of dogs the protection they need, regardless of gender or type of surgery, we designed the Recovery Suit® with a closed rear end. In order to be able to walk your dog or to check the wound, you can use the super easy hold-up system!
