These Medical Protection Covers eliminate the need for an Elizabethan collar to protect an injury or surgery wound from licking or scratching. They enable the dog to move freely and naturally while at the same time protecting an wound or area of irritation, make for happier pets and improving their rate of recovery from injury or surgery. If a dog needs crate rest, the cover is much more comfortable than the traditional cone and inflatable collars.
Made using the ScandiTex textile developed by Scandi Orthopedic specifically for this purpose, they are waterproof and breathable with excellent stretch to allow freedom of movement, while also being durable. No moisture will get through to the wound or bandage, yet humidity is able to escape through the cover.
Medical Protection Covers (MCP) are made for comfort with the seams on the outside to avoid any risk of abrasion. They can safely be left in place for 24 hours a day. Hand wash with mild detergent at a maximum of 40oC.
MCPs are available for fore and hind legs and as well as full body covers.
The body length is highly customisable, as are the shoulder, hip and leg holes to ensure maximum comfort.
Measurement for size - Full Body
To order the correct size, you will need to measure the dog as shown in the diagrams and relate this to the figures in the table below. It is easier to measure the dog first, write down the measurements, then check what you have written against the table.
Perform the measurement with the dog standing. Refer to diagram.
1. Measure the circumference of the chest at its widest (just behind the front legs).
2. Measure the circumference of the waist just in front of the hind legs.
