Didopet Dog Recovery Collar, Blue XL Clear Cone with Padded Edge

Didopet’s patented blue XL dog recovery collar is designed to help protect wounds from licking, biting, and scratching, with a clear design and detachable zipper extension.

• Reinforced, crack-resistant plastic that is thicker than standard Elizabethan collars — forms a protective barrier during recovery.
• Four elastic neck rings and adjustable hook-and-loop fasteners — help keep the collar in place with an adjustable fit.
• Soft padded neck cushion and edge — help limit rubbing and irritation during wear.
• Clear construction with 360° vision — helps your dog see around them while wearing the collar.
• Blue XL size — fits dogs with a neck circumference of 16.5–20.5 in (41.9–52.1 cm).

After surgery or an injury, dogs may lick, bite, or scratch at the area they are healing. This recovery collar is made to create a barrier around surgical incisions, stitches, hot spots, skin conditions, and limb injuries. It is also intended for use after procedures around the eyes, where preventing contact with the affected area matters.

How does this collar help protect a healing area?

The collar creates a physical barrier between your dog’s mouth or paws and a wound or irritated spot. Preventing interference with the healing area can help reduce infection risk. The reinforced plastic is designed to resist cracking and is thicker than the material used in standard Elizabethan collars.

• Made for post-operative recovery, including after TPLO surgery.
• Can be used to limit licking, biting, and scratching at hot spots, stitches, injuries, or surgical incisions.
• The clear body preserves a 360° field of vision to help your dog navigate while wearing it.

How should I choose the XL size?

The XL fits a neck circumference of 16.5–20.5 in (41.9–52.1 cm) and a neck-to-snout measurement of 13 in (33 cm). Measure your dog before choosing the size; for coverage, the collar should extend at least 2 in (5.1 cm) beyond your dog’s nose. If your dog falls between sizes, choose the larger size.

• Suitable XL examples include Rottweilers, Alaskan Malamutes, and Bernese Mountain Dogs when their measurements fit.
• Use your dog’s measurements rather than breed alone to assess fit.
• Adjust the collar with its hook-and-loop fasteners for a secure fit.

What helps keep the collar comfortable and in place?

Four elastic neck rings and adjustable hook-and-loop fasteners help secure the collar while allowing adjustment. A padded neck cushion and edge provide a soft contact area intended to help prevent rubbing and irritation during longer wear. Dogs can eat, drink, play, and rest while wearing it.

• Supervise your dog during the first wear.
• If your dog tries to chew the collar, redirect their attention with a treat or toy.
• The elastic-ring side is the front of the collar.

How do I use and store the zipper extension?

The detachable zipper extension lets you customize the collar’s length for the location of your dog’s wound. Remove the extension for mealtimes and reattach it when you need the added coverage. Avoid pulling the zipper forcefully.

• After unpacking, flatten the collar under a weighted object to help restore its shape.
• Roll the collar up for compact storage.
• Regularly clear dirt, hair, and debris from the hook-and-loop fasteners to keep them working properly.

This collar suits dog owners seeking a recovery barrier for a measured XL fit, whether their dog is healing after surgery or dealing with an injury or hot spot. It is intended to limit access to the affected area while allowing everyday activities such as eating, drinking, playing, and resting.
