Product Information

It may have its roots in fighting and working, but the American Bulldog is a big old softie at heart. You definitely want your furry best friend to be as comfortable as possible while recovering from surgery or an injury. A comfy cone for dogs is one that uses softer material, like fabric, as an alternative to the traditional, hard plastic style. Here are two great examples of a comfy cone for dogs that dog owners rate highly. Comfy Cone Let’s put it this way: when you own a Chinese Shar-Pei, you know you own a Chinese Shar-Pei. It’s one of the most distinctive-looking breeds available – certainly one of the dog breeds that makes other uninitiated dog lovers ask “what breed is that?” Well, they have good reason to be curious: this is actually one of the rarest breeds out there and despite its relatively rich history – considering the breed’s numbers – it was not officially recognized by the American Kennel Club until 1991. In most cases, your pup may only have to wear a dog head cone or your alternative dog cone of choice for four or five days. Sometimes it may be longer — from 7 to 14 days after surgery — until the sutures can be removed. Types of Dog Cone

But what exactly makes them such popular, well-respected dogs… and does a strong breed always mean that a Labrador Retriever will be the right dog for you? As well as the thin plastic cone collars that come right up past the end of the nose, a slightly more costly alternative is also available, which may be appropriate for some dogs. This consists of a collar made of an inflatable ring, which stops the dog from turning their head enough to bite most of the body, and may potentially stop your dog from scratching their face too. This collar can be slightly more comfortable, as it does not come up into the dog’s line of vision, but it may not be suitable for all dogs and injuries as it does not limit access to the whole body in the same way that the buster collar does. A true Southern U.S. dog, the American English Coonhound loves to hunt. Loud-voiced and hard-working, the American English Coonhound is one of six official Coonhound breeds. Renowned for its speed, endurance, intelligence, and athleticism, this dog loves to be on the move. Good with children and friendly with strangers, you’ll find this dog to be fairly easy to train, making it a great family pet for novice owners. It will alert you (loudly) of strangers entering your property, but will make fast friends with anyone who gives it attention. This makes the American Coonhound a good watchdog, but not the best guard dog.

Some dog breeds need to be sold to potential dog owners as they might not be familiar with the intricacies of what makes those particular pups special. Other breeds are so legendary that the name is a selling point in and of itself. Enter the Labrador Retriever. The reputation of this beloved breed speaks for itself. There’s a reason why suburbs are filled with these fine animals and why seemingly every family wants to bring one into their homes. These dogs live up to the hype.

Acquiring this dog can be a bit difficult, but for many people, the adventure is worth it. A Shar-Pei can be a very protective dog that bonds well to a close-knit group of people, but without proper handling and training from a young age, it can become a bit territorial. Let’s find out more about this impressive and rare breed of dog that will certainly become a main attraction wherever you decide to take it. Oh winter – there are so many things I don’t like about you. And at the top of the list is taking my dog out to do his business. So for cold-phobia people like me (and in my defense, the dog isn’t too keen on the snow either), there’s The Pet Loo, an indoor potty for dogs. Understandably, anything that limits your dog in this way is likely to prove rather annoying to them, and most dogs do not take well to wearing their buster collar at first. As well as protecting the wound or sensitive area, the buster collar may also potentially cause problems with eating and drinking normally, get in the way when your dog is navigating around, and make it a little harder for them to get comfortable to go to sleep. Be prepared to accept that eating and drinking in the collar may prove rather messy, and consider putting down newspaper!

If your dog has another minor wound or injury that requires non-surgical treatment but your dog will not leave the area in question alone, this might also necessitate the collar. Finally, if your dog is being treated for a skin allergy or irritation or even ear mites and is persistently scratching or biting at themselves, a buster collar can be helpful here too. How long will they need to wear it for? Let’s go over a few pros and cons of dog insurance… we hope it will make the decision a bit clearer for you.
