Review on Professional Anti Licking Alternative Abdominal Protector Dogs - Apparel & Accessories by Laura Thompson

OK if it fits - Apparel & Accessories

This is an adjustable suit meant to keep dogs or cats from interfering with a wound or injury on their body. The workmanship on the suit is good, the fabric is a knit jersey, like a midnight tee shirt material so there is a bit of give to it. On this particular suit the color combination is a tasteful grey with blue trim. It is easy to put this suit on, the final adjustment is made with straps that fit between the animal's hind legs and attach to large velcro patches on the rump. A certain amount of adjust is possible at this point. The hind part of the suit can be moved out of the way for toileting by unfastening the straps, rolling the suit up to towards the front and then securing this with a velcro strap on the chest.I do have some issues with the fit of this suit. I realize that dogs do come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes which makes getting a proper fit on any sort of dog garment a challenge. I carefully measured my dog, a lab/whippet mix in order to ensure as good a fit as possible. He was comfortably within the size range so I thought the fit would be no problem. When I put this suit on him I was disappointed to find that it pulled across his shoulders which are not nearly as broad as a pure bred labrador's would be. When I pulled the suit down his back and adjusted the straps between his legs I found that this area was a bit long and just barely fit when I moved the straps up as far as they would go. The suit is both too big and too small, sizing either up or down to get a better fit through either the shoulders or back would make the other measurement to be at all usable.I would suggest measuring your animal carefully and hope for the best. FYI - The back area allows for some adjustment, the chest area does not.
