My dog is 35cm from neck to base of tail so I bought 2XS and it's like a second skin, perfect fit. The material is soft, stretchy jersey and washes well. It has a lighter blue gusset so any exudate is easily seen, or you can use sanitary pads. Poppers at the back make it easy for her to toilet, there is a tab on the inside which holds it in place when rolled. The leaflet has lots of useful information and worth taking the time to read. Our vet said she might lick the material and make the wound wet, we haven't noticed this but keep checking. I really can't find anything negative to say about this product, great design.

We have a large, 40kg bouncy boy and we wanted to make the neutering process as stress-free as possible. I really didn’t even want to attempt the cone and a neck pillow would have been too tight around his neck…this suit is perfect and fits like a glove in a XXL. It has some really clever functions (a lighter double layered inside which allows you to check for blood/fluid, a blind hole on top to insert an IV if required) and it’s a lovely, light, breathable fabric. Our boy hasn’t been bothered by wearing the suit at all and it’s completely prevented him from bothering/licking his downstairs area. We’ve bought 2 of these to have on rotation so that we can wash when needed.

I highly recommend Pet Shirts, not only for stopping patients from licking at their wounds, but also to prevent them causing trauma with scratching with their back legs. A doggy patient recently had abdominal surgery, and although she could not reach the wound with her mouth, was attempting to scratch with her hind feet. We quickly fitted her for a shirt and it did the trick beautifully. She also looked very fashionable wearing it too. Win win!

Karen Beeston RVN

Purchased for a very lively 11 month old Springer Spaniel who has just been spayed and protested against wearing a cone, or inflatable doughnut. This shirt is absolutely fantastic, she's not bothered about wearing it and it stops her messing with her wound! I ordered a M and it fits perfectly - very stretchy, easy to get on and I'm guessing comfortable - seeing she hasn't tried to hoodini out of it.

K. Tompkins

The onesie is perfect with its snap buttons that allow you to open it up and fold it forward. You can also secure it with a button at the front to keep it in place. I also like the extra belly room for storing a cloth or pad.

Nicole

We took a tighter size on the advice of others. M instead of M+ which I would have taken. Fits nice and tight. We are going to use it for weaning. She no longer gives milk, but puppies keep looking. Our dog is 32 kg and has a back length of about 60 cm.

Vero

Lightweight shirt (size M+ for German Pinscher-Shepherd mix) with a stretchable material that is easy to put on. The fit is comfortable and offers plenty of freedom of movement. The body is washable at 60°C and neatly finished without annoying seams. Ideal for recovery and daily use. For me everything is perfect!

Ulrich Schroth

For my 4kg Cavapoo I bought size XS and it fits well. It is a great alternative to the collar and she feels comfortable in it. The fabric is of excellent quality and I would definitely recommend it.

MPS Hind Leg Double Sleeves for dogs

My dog was so happy and protected is his back leg sleeves outfit. The wound was healing well and swiftly. Very lovely, would highly recommend! - Lydia

Kiara had her plates and pins removed. After a quick surgery, she was allowed to go home. The operation went well, and she's recovering from the anesthesia nicely. She was wearing her Hind Leg Sleeves from MPS to protect the wound, which was stitched with dissolvable thread. - Sic Rozenkamp

Following Stanley having bilateral patella location surgery he had 2 large wounds on his hind limbs, we bought the medical pet shirt so that he didn’t need to wear an Elizabethan collar whilst we were around, the shirt was so easy to put on and Stanley tolerated it very well, this allowed Stanley to rest easy and promote his recovery without the need for a stressful plastic collar. We wouldn’t hesitate in using this medical pet shirt product again if needed although hopefully our boy won’t have to undergo anymore orthopaedic surgery! - @Stanley_thesprocker

Happy recovery in the Protective Pet Shirt for cats

Keep your feline calm, comfy, and stylish during recovery with our Protective Pet Shirt for cats. No more stress, no more plastic cones, just soft, breathable protection that lets them heal in peace. Designed with cats in mind.

My two foster cats were helped perfectly after an operation with the medical shirt. It fits well, lets enough air through and they move freely without pulling on it. The opening at the back is just right and stays clean. The wounds can ventilate well. A great and comfortable solution instead of a collar!

P. Schmi

I bought the suit for after sterilization and now use it to limit scratching due to allergies. The shirt fits perfectly and gives her enough freedom of movement. It protects the vulnerable areas well and gives me a feeling of peace. I can definitely recommend this model.

Sweets

Rupert developed a skin condition called Atopy and has been on medications for most of his life for this, even with his medications under control, unfortunately, he had developed a compulsive behaviour to lick his skin and chew at his skin until it was bleeding. With the shirt he's now got a full coat of fur for the first time in 2 years and is a much more confident and happy cat. I recommend these to all of my post-operative cat patients! 

Bella

This was soft and stretchy so it was easy to put on and remove. The fit was good from the measurements I took, except the neck seemed a little tight. As my cat was not used to a collar I made a cut in the neck to allow more room. This was easy to wash but took a few hours to dry on the radiator due to the thickness of the neck.

Anonymous

For me the best shirt on the market. We used it after our cat was spayed. Everything stayed in place and there was no mess when she went to the toilet.

M. Lange

It's very soft, reasonably straightforward to put on (depending on how cooperative the cat is) and fits snugly. The cat in question is all "woe is me" about wearing it, but it's doctor's orders. They originally gave him a dog's XS (blue) MPS because they didn't have the correct size in the cat version, but the dog suit does NOT suit a cat's anatomy. He's sulking, but he's not trying to get out of it. Hopefully he'll feel more comfortable in it with time, as it's only been a week and he's supposed to wear it for a good couple of months.

Sofia

We've been buying different shirts for our cat for about a year now. The products from MPS are the best we've found for our stress-eater. The fabric of the leopard print shirts is a bit lighter than the red ones, which our cat finds comfortable as it doesn't mess up his fur. The fit and quality are really good. Getting a discount for buying multiple shirts would be a great bonus!

Peter

My kitten had an operation and totally freaked wearing the cone - the cone lasted all of 2 minutes, plus the inflatable neck collar came off too. A friend leant me her cats medical vest and it’s just so much better and less scary for our kitten (looks cute too). Though she’s wearing a borrowed one I decided to buy my own. Is now used to it and is playing happily, eating and the suit enables her to use the litter tray without getting the suit dirty, and it stops her licking / biting her stitches.

Danceaddict

The body is really good quality, fits well, and super practical. I recommend it.

MPS Protective Top Shirt for Dogs

I'm totally thrilled. It's super easy to put on because the belly part has Velcro. The fabric is really strong and very comfortable for the dog! - Anja Buehler

Our Bruno had to have his front leg amputated. Because he kept bothering the wound, he has to wear a protective shirt until it heals completely. We tried all kinds of collars and cones, even sewed some ourselves, but then we found this pet shirt. Bruno is a German Shepherd and size L fits him perfectly, even with 3 legs. The fabric and craftsmanship are top-notch. He's loving his new freedom and feels really comfortable in this shirt. (And he looks super cute in it too. - Daniela Buch

My 8kg Cavalier King Charles Spaniel fits perfectly in size XS. Finally, the breast band doesn't slip anymore. Awesome! My dog is comfortable, definitely recommend buying it. - Peggy

Comfortable rabbits in the MPS Protective Pet Shirt

Our Protective Pet Shirt for rabbits offers a soft, secure alternative to bandages and cones. Designed to reduce stress and prevent interference with wounds or stitches, so your little friend can heal safely and comfortably. Trusted by vets, loved by rabbits.

After neutering our bunny, we decided on this bodysuit. It exceeded our expectations. Despite the fact that our bunny tirelessly tries to take off her bodysuit by pulling and tearing, it has held up and fits like a glove even after several days. The size fits exactly as indicated (by weight).

Nancy M.

A great bunny suit that stopped my bunny from eating through her wound again. She has been chewing at it for 10 days and had not managed to break free out of it so it’s strong!
Very well made and easy to put on, although you may need two people if you have a jumpy bunny.

Anything is better than a collar, which I had to use on another rabbit back in the day when there were no bodysuits. The animal suffered a thousand times more from this than from a bodysuit. I am very satisfied and am happy to recommend these bodysuits! :)

TerraX

Very useful for a post-sterilization operation. Good fabric quality and very resistant.
My rabbit weighs 2 kg and size XS is a little tight.

Happy and cool dogs in the DRY Cooling Vest

Keep your dog comfortably cool during warm days without the mess of water-activated gear. Lightweight, breathable, and easy to use, perfect for walks, play, or recovery in hot weather. Cool relief, zero hassle.

Keeps Him Cool! Rosco was raised in the high mountains from the time he was 8 weeks old so this intense heat + humidity combo was rough for him. We decided to give this a try, and we have been overall happy with it! This vest saved his butt from overheating several times during the worst of the summer so far.

Paul M.

Last summer, I had a vest that needed to be soaked in water, but that was inconvenient since you always needed water on hand. That’s why I wanted to try this Dry Vest, despite the price. The XS fits well, but it was a bit tight around the neck, so I cut the fabric there to make it easier to put on and take off. The material feels a bit stiff, but as soon as you add 100 ml of water, the inside instantly cools down – I didn’t expect that!

Jasmin

Bought this for my Border Collie girl that panted just about non-stop. It actually helps cool her down and the vest stays pretty chilled. I say it’s worth the cost. The overall quality is pretty nice as well. Also got my pupper booties for when running on hot asphalt :P Hoping the cooling factor keeps up!

William Alexander Lionheart

This vest is amazing. It works as described by the company.

MPS Protective Head Cover for dogs

  • I bought this for a wound my dog had at the tip of her ear that wouldn't heal because she kept shaking her head. It doesn't slip, the ears stay in place. Already washed. Great product. I recommend it! - Cathy

  • What's great about a MPS is that it can be used for various types of surgeries and animals, not just for sterilization/castration. We used the headcover for ears. Much better than a cone. Just look at German Pinscher Rick, so happy! - Vet Clinic Rijnoever

  • My boy is a nightmare for ripping off cones, bandages etc. But needed something that would prevent him from irritating his ear infection (he suffers with this every few months in one specific ear). I saw the reviews on here and thought I'd try my luck and wow was I impressed! It has velcro bits to help you keep it in place as you're buttoning it up, has sooo much room for adjustments on the straps under the mouth and around the neck, a velcro part at the top to adjust the length of the front part, elasticated around the front for extra hold but isn't tight around the face and there's even little side pockets for the ear pads to hold them in place. My boy has shook his head around, rolled, dragged himself along the floor and tried to pull it off like he does everything else and it hasn't budged! He's played football with the kids aswell and once again it didn't budge! He can also eat and drink as normal with this on. As you can see by the pictures he has now gotten used to it and seems very comfortable :) For size reference I got a large and my boy is a 25kg Staffordshire Bull Terrier with a chunky head and it fits wonderfully. Overall brilliant product and would highly recommend as a more comfortable alternative to normal cones - Danielle-May

MPS Protective Front Leg Single and Double sleeve for dogs

Whether your dog needs support on one leg or both, our Protective Sleeves offer a comfortable, secure solution for recovery. Ideal for wounds, skin issues, or post-op care, breathable, vet-approved, and cone-free.

Great for my shepherd x husky. I got a size large and it fits perfectly, easy to put over her surgical wound. Can be used for both legs. Good material, so breathable.

Ashleigh Cross

I used this instead of a collar to protect a wound after surgery. Tried everything but this was by far the most useful. Also great for covering razor burn after surgery. Size M fits my 20kg Springer well and is easy to adjust around the chest.

L. Cox

My giant Schnauzer had problems with his elbows due to cortisone use and licked them a lot. With this MPS sleeve licking is no longer possible. The material is pleasant and the extra reinforcement at the elbow offers good protection. Size L fits perfectly and my dog ​​accepts it without any problems. A great solution that I definitely recommend.

Tordo

Everything is great, the material is stretchy and fits well with clips and velcro. I ordered the large size because I wasn't sure but there was plenty of room. The medium size was perfect for a big English Springer Spaniel. No medical collar needed, perfect.

Jackie Jack

Don’t be fooled by my dogs face, she wasn’t convinced but these were great for hiding her stitches when she got hurt recently. No horrible cone of shame. She tolerated them really well.

Catriona Irvine

Purchased for elbow surgery to use in replacement of bandages and Elizabethan collar. Well tolerated by dog ​​who (incredibly) does not nibble sleeves and does not seem to have any kind of disturbance or discomfort. I have a 32 kg female Samoyed. Purchased size L.

Michela

Great product! I did put something together myself, but it didn't work great. The MPS-products are really great. I immediately ordered two and am super happy with them.

Jasmine Natalie

My Golden Retriever recently had elbow surgery and I had pre-ordered the MPS sleeve. The clinic was pleasantly surprised, because a collar was not an option for my dog. He leaves the sleeve on nicely and size L fits perfectly. For us this is the best solution and I can definitely recommend it.

MPS Protective Pet Boot for Dogs

My service dog needed to stay mobile despite a thick paw bandage. Standard dog shoes didn’t fit, and DIY solutions failed. After struggling with slipping and wound irritation, I discovered a protective boot from MPS® that fit over the bandage, stayed in place, and allowed healing. Now he can safely join me for short outings again. - Mel Dost

Tank is wearing his MPS medical boot. This water repellent paw protection keeps his bandages dry. The MPS-Medical PetS Boot® has a durable, flexible, rubber non-skid sole. The front and the back part of the rubber sole are a little higher for more protection in case Tank drags with its paw. And ofcourse.. Here in Amsterdam, bad weather asks for extra precautions - Tank 020
