BENCMATE Inflatable Dog Recovery Collar, XLarge Soft Donut Cone Alternative

BENCMATE XLarge Inflatable Dog Cone Collar Alternative is a soft, inflatable recovery collar designed to help keep dogs from licking or biting post-surgery wounds and injured areas.

• Inflatable donut shape — creates a soft barrier around your dog’s neck.
• Two outer-fabric options — choose plush, soft-touch fabric or stretchy, scratch-resistant fabric.
• Unblocked vision — lets dogs see while wearing the collar.
• Adjustable fastening and inner straps — help secure the collar around your dog’s neck.
• Deflates for storage — takes up less space when not in use.

Recovery can involve keeping a dog away from a sensitive area while allowing everyday activities to continue. This soft collar is made for use after surgery or when a dog has an injury or rash, with a padded shape that surrounds the neck rather than covering the eyes.

How does the BENCMATE collar help protect a healing area?

Its inflated donut shape forms a barrier around the neck to help prevent a dog from licking or biting an injured area or surgical site. The collar is designed for post-surgery and wound-care use, and its soft exterior provides gentle contact. As a neck pillow, the soft collar is also intended to help dogs settle and ease wound discomfort.

• The inner air bag provides neck support.
• The collar can be worn while a dog eats, drinks, sleeps, or plays.

Can a dog see and move around while wearing it?

Yes, the collar is designed to leave a dog’s vision unobstructed. Unlike a traditional Elizabethan collar that can block a dog’s view, this donut-shaped alternative sits around the neck, allowing the dog to see while wearing it.

• The soft construction is intended to make routine activities easier during recovery.
• It can also be used as a cushioned neck pillow during rest.

How do I choose the size and secure the collar?

Measure your dog’s neck circumference before choosing the XLarge size. Thread your dog’s everyday collar through the recovery collar’s inner fixation straps, then adjust the hook-and-loop closure for fit.

• Position the closure at the back of your dog’s neck to make it harder to bite.
• If the recovery collar slips because it is loose, looping your dog’s everyday collar through it can help keep it in place.

How does the cover come off, and how is the collar stored?

The outer cover opens with a zipper so you can remove it. The collar also has a zipper opening for access to the inflatable inner bag; deflate it before storing to reduce the space it takes up.

• The two fabric choices are plush, soft-touch fabric for solid-color options and stretchy, anti-stick, scratch-resistant fabric for colorful options.
• The hook-and-loop closure makes the collar easier to put on and take off.

The BENCMATE XLarge inflatable collar suits dog owners seeking a soft recovery barrier that allows their dog to see and move through daily routines. Measuring the neck before choosing a size and using the inner straps to secure the collar are key to keeping it in place.
