AnimaCure Soft Dog Cone Collar, Size S Adjustable Recovery Collar

AnimaCure Soft Dog Cone Collar is an adjustable Elizabethan recovery collar designed to help protect healing areas from licking, with a double-layer construction for post-operative and wound recovery.

• Size S fits necks measuring 11.4–12.6 in (29.0–32.0 cm) — compare your dog’s measurements for suitable coverage.
• Hook-and-loop tape, a drawstring stopper and a collar loop — three ways to help keep the cone in place.
• Safety release buckles and a padded fabric edge — designed with your dog’s neck comfort in mind.
• A fluorescent strip on the outer rings — adds visibility in low-light conditions.
• A soft cone that makes less noise against furniture and floors than hard plastic cones.
• Waterproof exterior — wipe it with a paper towel for quick cleanup.

During recovery, a cone can help keep a dog from licking wounds or irritated skin. AnimaCure’s soft Elizabethan collar is made for post-operative care and wound or rash healing, while its design allows dogs to see, eat, drink and play more easily than with a restrictive hard cone.

How does the AnimaCure recovery collar help during healing?

The collar forms a protective barrier around the dog’s head to help limit access to wounds and healing skin. Its inner layer is breathable mesh, and the outer layer is waterproof, wear-resistant mesh-hole PVC. The design promotes airflow and clear vision, with room for everyday activities such as eating, drinking and playing.

• The soft construction creates less skin friction than a hard plastic cone.
• Use it for post-operation recovery or while a wound or rash heals.

What size should I choose for my dog?

Size S fits a neck circumference of 11.4–12.6 in (29.0–32.0 cm), and the cone depth is 8.1 in (20.6 cm). Measure your dog’s neck and the length from nose to neck before choosing a size. If your dog’s neck measurement is near the upper limit, choose one size up for fuller coverage against licking.

• Check both neck circumference and nose-to-neck length when assessing fit.
• Reshape the cone by laying it flat and pressing gently if it has been compressed in its packaging.

How does it stay on, and how should I care for it?

The adjustable fit combines wide hook-and-loop tape, a drawstring stopper that secures the neck circumference, and a built-in loop for threading your dog’s everyday collar. Safety release buckles are designed to help prevent choking, while the padded edge cushions the neck and cervical spine to help avoid abrasion.

• Wear the soft mesh side against the skin and keep the reflective strip facing outward.
• Remove it by gently separating the hook-and-loop fastener; calm your dog with treats or toys before putting it on.
• Clean it routinely, wipe the exterior with a paper towel, and keep the collar dry and airy.

AnimaCure Soft Dog Cone Collar suits dogs needing a soft, adjustable barrier during post-operative recovery or wound and rash healing. Its breathable inner mesh, waterproof PVC exterior and three-part adjustment system provide defined coverage and a customizable fit for recovery at home.
