Helps the Healing Process - Wearing a soft dog cone can affect your dog's mood or mental state. Unlike traditional hard plastic cones, the inflatable collar for dogs and cats creates a comfortable barrier that helps prevent your pet from aggravating wounds. Its rounded, unobtrusive design is similar to an inflatable neck pillow, allowing your dog a wide field of vision. This works well during both day and night while your dog recovers from surgery comfortably. Unrestricted in Daily Life - Traditional e-collars can cause active dogs to constantly run into objects or get caught. With this soft alternative, your dog can lie down, sleep, and eat without difficulty. If contact occurs, there is no loud or startling noise. The clear, soft material allows your dog to see all around. Extra Shield for Extra Protection - Unlike standard-depth collars, this design features an extended clear shield that is long enough to prevent your pet from reaching sensitive areas, supporting a stress-free and comfortable recovery. The detachable baffle is designed for convenience and can be quickly attached or removed as needed. You may remove the baffle when your dog is eating or sleeping. Double Adjustment for Secure Fit - The adjustable hook-and-loop strap ensures a secure and comfortable fit. You can position the strap at the back of your dog's neck to prevent chewing. Inner loops allow attachment to a regular collar, ensuring a proper fit and helping prevent escape. Soft & Lightweight Inflatable Collar - This Elizabethan collar provides support while remaining lightweight and easy to wear. Inflate the collar easily using a balloon pump or by mouth, and adjust the strap for a proper fit. You can control the firmness by adjusting the inflation level. It is recommended to inflate the collar to about 80% capacity to avoid excess pressure on the seams and reduce the risk of leakage.
