KOOLTAIL Inflatable Dog Cone Collar Alternative is a soft recovery collar for dogs after surgery, with an adjustable Size L fit for 16–18 in (41–46 cm) necks and a puncture-resistant PVC inner bladder.

• Size L fits a 16–18 in (41–46 cm) neck circumference — choose the size by measuring your dog’s neck.
• Adjustable outer strap, hook-and-loop fasteners and three inner fixing straps — help secure the collar and attach it to a regular dog collar.
• Soft, breathable fabric and a plush air-filled pillow — provide a cushioned alternative to a bulky cone while leaving vision unobstructed.
• High-density, puncture-resistant PVC bladder and scratch-resistant fabric cover — made for daily wear during recovery.
• Inflatable neck barrier with reflective webbing — helps keep pets from licking or biting wounds and adds visibility at night.
• Inflates by pump or mouth, wipes clean and deflates for storage — useful at home or when travelling.

After surgery, a dog may need a barrier around the neck to discourage licking or biting at a wound. This inflatable collar offers a cushioned option for recovery, with an adjustable fit and a design that lets a dog see around them while eating, drinking, sleeping and playing.

How does this collar support recovery?

The inflatable collar forms a soft barrier around the neck to help prevent a dog from reaching wounds to lick or bite them. Its plush air-filled pillow and soft, breathable outer fabric support the neck without the bulky shape of a traditional cone. The collar is also scratch- and bite-resistant, and reflective webbing is included for added visibility at night.

• The collar can serve as a neck pillow while your dog rests.
• The design is intended to keep your dog’s vision clear during everyday activities.

How do I get the right fit and keep it in place?

Size L is designed for a neck circumference of 16–18 in (41–46 cm). An adjustable circular strap on the outside and adjustable hook-and-loop fasteners let you set the fit, while three straps inside the collar can be threaded through a regular dog collar to add stability and help prevent slipping.

• Measure your dog’s neck circumference before choosing Size L.
• The inner fixing straps are made to connect with a regular dog collar.

How do I inflate, clean and store the collar?

Inflate it using a pump or by mouth, then adjust its firmness by changing the amount of air. The inflation valve sits at the back, away from a pet’s teeth. The removable fabric cover can be wiped clean, and the collar deflates quickly for compact storage.

• The inner bladder is high-density, puncture-resistant PVC; the outer cover is scratch-resistant fabric.
• For home or travel use, deflate the collar when it is not needed.
• The PVC may arrive rolled from packaging; gently adjust it or leave it for 1–3 days to regain its shape.

KOOLTAIL’s inflatable dog collar suits pet owners looking for a cushioned, adjustable recovery barrier for a dog that needs help avoiding wound licking or biting. It is designed for dogs whose neck circumference falls within the Size L range, with a fit that can be secured to a regular collar and an inflatable form that can be deflated for storage.
