comwish Dog Recovery Suit with Pee Hole, Large, Blue, surgical

This dog recovery suit in size L covers a back length of 18.7"–21.0" (47–53 cm), the measurement the brand asks you to consider first. It is made of cotton and Lycra stretch fabric in blue and has two oval cut-outs on the belly, so both male and female dogs have an opening to pee. The brand lists it for covering wounds after surgery, spays and neuters, and for sutures, skin conditions and heat cycles.

Putting the suit on and handling the pee openings

The suit comes with two oval openings in the belly area already in place, one for male dogs and one for female dogs. For a male dog, the manufacturer describes a check step: fit the suit first, mark where the urination opening should sit with a pen, take the suit off and then cut the hole at that mark. The fabric is washable and reusable, and the brand advises buying two suits so one stays spare while the other is washed.

Checking size L against your dog

Size L is cut for a chest of 22.0"–27.6" (56–70 cm), a neck of 13.78"–17.72" (35–45 cm) and a weight of 35–52 lb (15.9–23.6 kg). Measure your dog before buying, because the size your dog normally wears may not match this brand's chart. Start with the back length: the brand suggests sizing down for a dog that is long but slender and sizing up for one that is short but stocky.

Breed examples the brand gives for this size are the Border Collie, Siberian Husky, English Cocker Spaniel, Samoyed and Portuguese Podengo, and it notes these are for reference only. The measurements on the size chart take priority over the breed name.
