Suitical D Recovery Suit Black S Plus

I have owned dogs for 37 years and have been a breeder and trainer for 15 years. I have used multiple items over the years after surgeries and like this one the best. I've tried the doughnut, plastic cone and soft cones. This suit is made with cotton and performed better than I expected. I bought the XL size to fit my 2.5 year old 67lb standard poodle who was being neutered and also having gastropexy. Gastropexy is a surgical procedure performed in dogs with larger chests to prevent gastric dilatation and volvulus (GDV), commonly known as bloat. I needed to cover his stomach and privates. The suit covered both spots well! I brought the suit with me when picking my boy up from the vets office. The vet technician put it on him before I took him home. It was easy to put on and the vet tech said she thought it was a good quality surgical suit and she has seen many. I like that the opening in the back to go to the bathroom had snaps not Velcro as sometimes dogs get afraid of the sound Velcro makes when its pulled apart. When I removed the surgical suite from the box I noticed that it has a pocket for an ice pack in the tummy area. I don't remember reading that when I purchased it and thought that was a nice feature, however as I didn't need to use ice I don't have any feedback on that functionality of the suit. My boy wore the suit for 12 days straight. He did lick the suit off and on where he had surgery until I would catch him and tell him to stop. The suit would stay a little wet but didn't seem to bother him and dried nicely. When you bring the dog out to go to the bathroom, you unsnap the back and roll it up. There is a tab that you use to snap it in place. I did notice for the boys that the bottom/underside didn't pull up far enough on the body nor have a snap for the underside so I rolled it up and tucked the snapped flaps into the armpit area so the pee stream would not hit the back flaps as they would hang down from his tummy. I washed the suit in semi-warm water and air dried. It came out just fine.

My Belgian Malinois, Adah, had laparoscopic surgery that required two small incisions, and this Suitical recovery suit was an absolute game-changer.The material is soft, breathable, and stretchy. It fit perfectly around her chest and shoulders. There was a bit of extra room around her slim waist (typical for Mals), but it didn’t bother her at all. She acted like she wasn’t even wearing it!The suit has a snap-open rear section that makes potty breaks easy without needing to remove the whole thing. That’s a huge convenience for both dog and owner.It’s also very easy to clean—just toss it in the wash and it’s ready to go again.Best of all, it kept her from licking her incisions without the stress and awkwardness of a cone. She was calm, happy, and healing beautifully.We used a different brand recovery suit for another dog, purchased at a local big box pet store for twice the cost. Let me just say—not all recovery suits are created equal. The Suitical brand was far superior in both comfort and functionality.If your dog is recovering from surgery, this is the suit to get. It gave Adah the protection she needed and the comfort she deserved—and gave me peace of mind.

The sizing was excellent and matched the measurement chart precisely. The suit covers the entire abdominal region from thigh to thigh so there is no bypassing the fabric to get at the incision. The fabric is light, just stretchy enough, and very breathable. It washes and dries well, also. Overall, is made a stressful week less stressful for us AND our dog. Highly recommend.

This does what it says. And the size is slightly smaller. Our pup is 42 pounds and skinny. We got a medium. This was used for post surgery healing. Unfortunately she is a chewer and it only lasted about 3 days before she bit a few snaps off. I still bought 2 more and would rotate them over the days. The quality is good, they fit well. Just not for a crazy pup that chews all the time.

Game changer after a complicated Neuter surgery! Don’t hesitate to buy! 😊 I purchased the Medium for our male Bernadoodle. I ordered 2 so I had one clean to switch out with the worn one. I had washed it and laid it flat to dry. My 9 month old puppy.. He is 23” from neck to tail base, weighs 43 pounds and has about 3” of hair length. The company suggests taking that into considering when choosing the right size for your dog. I tried out the M before our pups procedure and it fit him well. He didn’t mind it at all.Remember that you need to unsnap the backside which includes also underneath the belly so the dog can go pee and poo. It covers their backside so they can’t go poo with this on either. The tail sticks out comfortably.I suggest you leash up your dog the entire time they need to be protected after surgery (so they don’t run around), but also now the site is unprotected because the suit is up under the front shoulder area so the animal can pee and poo. It’s EASY to unsnap and snap back again. No scary Velcro. I never had a snap pop off and this suit was opened and closed a lot.My dog is on day 5 post surgery and I’m so thankful I have 2 of these surgical suits! They protect his entire body minus legs and face from getting dirty or him having access (licking).This really is a great product!! I’m thankful it was affordable at $30. I could have used 3 of them but I’m holding back on spending money on yet another one. However… if I need another one the shipping was FAST too! Great company to work with!If you need a surgical suit, this one is perfect!I will try to include a photo later but I wanted to get this review completed so everyone needing this product could feel confident ordering it and knowing their beloved pet will be in good hands with this suit.
