BENCMATE Inflatable Dog Cone Collar Alternative, Medium+ Recovery Donut

BENCMATE Inflatable Dog Cone Collar Alternative in Medium+ is an inflatable recovery collar designed to help keep dogs from licking or biting injured areas and surgical sites, with a soft donut-shaped barrier around the neck.

• Inflatable ring forms a barrier around the neck — helps deter licking and biting at wounds.
• Open sightline design — lets dogs see while eating, drinking, resting, and playing.
• Two outer fabric options — choose plush soft-touch fabric in solid colors or stretchy, scratch-resistant, anti-stick fabric in colorful options.
• Removable zippered cover — unzip the outer cover for cleaning.
• Inner collar-fixing straps and hook-and-loop closure — help secure and adjust the fit; the collar deflates for compact storage.

After surgery or an injury, dogs may need a barrier to discourage access to a sensitive area without the vision-blocking shape of a traditional Elizabethan collar. BENCMATE’s inflatable donut collar is made for recovery use and provides soft neck support while leaving the dog’s view unobstructed.

How does the BENCMATE collar help protect a wound?

The inflated ring sits around the dog’s neck as a cushioned barrier intended to make it harder to reach and lick or bite an injured area or surgical site. Its shape supports the neck without covering the eyes, unlike a traditional cone. The collar also has a pillow-like shape for resting.

• Designed for use after surgery or when a dog has a wound.
• Soft outer material provides a cushioned contact surface.

Can dogs see, eat, and rest while wearing it?

Yes, the open design does not obstruct the dog’s sight, so dogs can see while wearing the collar. BENCMATE’s collar is designed to allow everyday activities such as eating, drinking, sleeping, and playing while it serves as a recovery barrier.

• Does not use a wide, vision-blocking cone shape.
• The ring can also serve as a neck pillow.

How do you secure and adjust the collar?

Thread your dog’s regular collar through the fixation straps on the inside of the inflatable collar, then use the hook-and-loop closure to adjust the fit. Position the closure at the back of the dog’s neck to make it harder for the dog to bite it. Measure your dog’s neck circumference before choosing the Medium+ size; if the recovery collar slips because it is too large, looping the regular collar through the fixation straps may help hold it in place.

• Hook-and-loop fastening makes the collar easier to put on and remove.
• Deflate it for storage in a small space.

Which fabric option and cleaning features does it have?

The available cover fabrics depend on the color option: solid colors use plush, soft-touch fabric, while colorful options use stretchy, scratch-resistant, anti-stick fabric. A zipper on the outer cover lets you remove it for cleaning; no specific washing method is provided here.

• Removable outer cover with a zipper.
• Inflatable inner air bag provides the collar’s shape and neck support.

BENCMATE Medium+ suits dog owners looking for a soft, inflatable recovery collar to discourage wound licking or biting while preserving the dog’s view. Measure neck circumference for fit, and use the inner straps with the regular collar to help keep the recovery collar in place. Its inflatable ring, adjustable closure, and removable cover make it a practical option for post-surgery or wound-care use.
