Helps the Healing Process - Wearing a soft dog cone can affect your dog's mood or mental state. Unlike traditional hard plastic cones, the inflatable collar for dogs and cats creates a comfortable barrier that helps prevent pets from aggravating their wounds. Its rounded, unobtrusive design is similar to an inflatable neck pillow, allowing your dog a wide field of vision. This works well during both day and night while your pet is recovering from surgery. Unrestricted in Daily Life - Traditional e-collars can cause active dogs to frequently bump into or get caught on objects. With this soft alternative, your dog can lie down, sleep, and eat without difficulty. If contact occurs, there is no loud or startling noise. The clear, soft material allows your dog to see all around. Extra Shield for Extra Protection - Compared to standard-depth collars, this design features an extended clear shield that is long enough to prevent your pet from reaching sensitive areas, supporting a stress-free and comfortable recovery. The detachable baffle is designed to make your pet's life easier and can be quickly attached or removed as needed, such as during mealtime or sleep. Double Adjustment for Secure Fit - The adjustable hook and loop strap ensures a comfortable and secure fit. The strap can be positioned at the back of the neck to discourage biting. Inner loops allow attachment to a standard collar, ensuring a proper fit and helping prevent removal. Soft & Lightweight Inflatable Collar - This Elizabethan collar provides full neck support while remaining lightweight and easy to wear. Inflate the collar easily using a balloon pump or by mouth, and adjust the strap for a customized fit. Firmness can be adjusted by controlling inflation levels. For best results, inflate to approximately 80% to avoid excess pressure on seams and reduce the risk of leakage.
