A streamlined version of the signature MPS - Protective Pet Shirt
While the familiar Protective Pet Shirt continues as part of the Signature Line, tailored for maximum versatility in both clinical and at-home settings, the Classic Line puts the focus on core functionality. The same essential features as the original shirt, but simplified to make it accessible to anyone due to the cost-efficient design. All while providing full-torso coverage to protect wounds, surgical sites, and skin conditions during recovery, no compromising quality whatsoever.
Use the Classic MPS Protective Pet Shirt Dog for:
✓ Protection after abdominal surgery (spaying) or wounds
After procedures like spaying or when a dog needs stitches around the torso, the Classic MPS Protective Pet Shirt Dog offers soft, secure, and stress-reducing protection. Unlike a traditional cone, the shirt gently covers the wound area directly, preventing contact with dirt or licking, while giving a dog the freedom to move naturally.
Thanks to the breathable cotton fabric and tailored fit, the shirt supports airflow — essential for a safe and speedy healing process. Both veterinarians and pet owners can easily put the shirt on or take it off for wound checks or cleaning.
✓ Hotspots and skin problems
When a dog suffers from hotspots or skin irritations on the torso, the Classic MPS Protective Pet Shirt Dog offers a comfortable and secure way to support healing. Dogs often instinctively lick irritated skin to self-soothe, but excessive licking can worsen the issue, increasing the risk of infections and delayed recovery.
The shirt gently covers the affected area, helping to break the lick-scratch cycle while still allowing airflow through its breathable cotton fabric. This promotes natural healing without stress or discomfort — giving dogs the calm recovery they deserve.
✓ A break for nursing moms
The Classic MPS Protective Pet Shirt Dog offers nursing mother dogs the rest and protection they deserve. By fully covering the torso, the shirt helps prevent constant nursing, supporting a calm and gradual weaning process.
The shirt protects the nipple area while still allowing easy access at designated times for feeding. Comfortable for the mother, practical for the caregiver — ensuring smooth, stress-free care during this essential phase.
✓ When in heat or with light incontinence
The Classic MPS Protective Pet Shirt Dog helps keep the dog comfortable and the environment clean during the heat cycle or in case of mild incontinence. The shirt minimizes the risk of blood or urine stains on furniture and floors, and provides a designated space to insert a sanitary pad inside.
Unlike heat diapers that can shift or cause discomfort, the shirt stays securely in place thanks to the convenient rear closure—offering reliable protection without limiting movement. Designed to support hygiene while ensuring comfort for the dog.
✓ Helps reduce shedding in the environment
Say goodbye to floating pet hair in the clinic or at home. Dogs shed most around the torso — precisely where the Classic MPS Protective Pet Shirt Dog offers full coverage. Loose hairs are contained within the shirt, making them easy to collect and remove during cleaning.
A smart and practical solution to support cleanliness during shedding season, while maintaining comfort for the dog.
The Key Features
Although the Classic Line contains fewer features than the Signature Line of the MPS Protective Pet Shirt for Dogs, the foundation of the product remains fully preserved. Designed according to the anatomy of dogs, known for its breathability and comfort.
Extra soft & long rims
The MPS Protective Pet Shirt features a longer, soft, and elastic band around the neck, arms and tail, preventing chafing or pressure on sensitive areas, even during longer wear. The neck is foldable for a shorter neckline.
Secure closure with adjustable press studs
The MPS Protective Pet Shirt features a secure, press stud closure that prevents dogs from opening it themselves while allowing pet owners and veterinarians to easily put it on and take it off. Always fasten all press studs for the best fit.
Breathable cotton & 4-way-stretch Invista® Lycra
The MPS Protective Pet Shirt Dog is made from high quality cotton combined with four way stretch Invista® Lycra. This breathable fabric allows air to circulate around the skin while providing a comfortable, flexible fit that moves naturally with the dog. The soft material helps prevent irritation and supports calm recovery while maintaining reliable protection for wounds, surgical sites, or skin conditions.
Find the right size for the best recovery
To find the correct size, measure a dog from the base of the neck (where the collar sits) to the base of the tail. If a dog is between two sizes, we recommend choosing the smaller one. Also take into account a dog's body shape and fur thickness.The fit should be secure, like a second skin. Please refer to the sizing chart or watch our step-by-step tutorial.

Frequently asked questions:
When to use the Signature shirt and when to use the Classic shirt?
The Classic Line offers a practical solution for veterinary clinics and animal shelters looking for a reliable and cost-efficient choice for standard recovery care. This line is ideal for larger volumes and everyday use. The Signature Line remains the preferred choice for situations where additional features are required for more complex procedures and or intensive aftercare.
Both lines are developed with the same trusted fit, comfort, and quality that you expect from MPS.
Why does the Classic Line have a different color than the Signature Line?
To make it easier to distinguish between the two variants in practice, we chose a different color for the Classic Line instead of the standard blue used for the Signature Line.
What do the plus sizes (S+ and M+) mean?
The plus sizes (S+ and M+) are specially designed for dogs in between the sizes S and M and between the sizes M and L.
There’s extra space around the belly. Is that normal?
Yes, this space promotes air circulation to help wounds heal faster.
What if a dog puts its nose under the shirt and licks or bites the wound?
If a dog can reach under the shirt, it’s likely too big. A proper fit ensures the shirt fits snugly like a second skin, making it difficult for a dog to access the wound. Check here how to choose the right size easily.
Can a dog wear the MPS Protective Pet Shirt all day?
Yes, the MPS Protective Pet Shirt is suitable for long-term wear. Made from 94% high-quality cotton and 6% Invista Lycra® 4-way stretch fabric, it’s breathable and comfortable.
 Note: It’s important to wash the shirt regularly. Two shirts are often provided so a dog stays protected even when one shirt is washed. Always supervise a pet while wearing the shirt and check that it still fits properly—it shouldn't be too tight or too loose.
How to recognize an original MPS product?
Each legit product has a wash label with an MPS hologram. No logo or hologram? Then it's not an official product from Medical Pet Shirts Europe B.V. - meaning no guarantee on our quality, safety, and fit.
