The size of the MPS-Medical Pet Shirt is best measured from the collar to the base of the tail. Fill in the chart below to find your dogs recommended size:
We know how important it is to be able to quickly dress and undress your dog. Therefore, our MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® is made of soft and stretchy high-quality material. The MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® has a snug fit to prevent your dog from wiggling out. However, it is important to keep monitoring your dog if the snug fit isn’t too tight. Getting the shirt on and off your dog is simple, so let’s take a look!
Step 1: Roll up the shirt with the middle head opening in your hand. Make sure that the light blue inner layer is facing down. Insert your dog’s head through the opening.
Step 2: Followed by inserting one leg into the provided smaller leg opening and the other leg into the other remaining smaller opening.
Step 3: Now pull the MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® over your dog’s body all the way to the back.
Step 4: The lower belly flaps must be pulled between the hind legs towards the upper part near the base of the tail.
Step 5: Secure the two flaps with the snaps/poppers. We advise to close all snaps/poppers to keep the shirt perfectly in place.
Step 6: Take a good look around the legs, neck and tail to see if there is enough room to move and breathe!
This easy to put on and take off MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® is specially designed on the anatomy of dogs. Therefore, it can only be used for dogs.
Consult your veterinarian when you want to use this product for medical purposes. Your veterinarian can recommend a suitable treatment. Keep monitoring your pet regularly to make sure the fit is not too tight. Keep your pet under supervision of a responsible adult at all times while using this product. However, please consult your veterinarian if your pet’s behavior is changing or when your pet has excessive licking/chewing habits.
For longer usage, it is possible that the print of the MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® and the label could fade over time. With the washing instructions below, this process can be delayed. Washing, maintaining and handling of delivered items always remains the responsibility of the customer.
Instructions:
Using bleach and other chemicals can cause irritations to your dog’s wound, surgical area, hotspots or more…!
TIP! Little (peeing) accidents can happen while wearing the MPS-Medical Pet Shirt®. To ensure that your dog remains protected, two MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® are often purchased. While one MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® can be washed, the other MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® can be worn. When your dog needs to wear the MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® longer than a week, it’s always better to have a back-up shirt!
The MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® is toxic/lead free and is made of:
First of all, we want to explain why the MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® is fully closed. In many cases, the surgical area for male dogs is very close to the urination area. For instance, with spaying or neuter procedures. To give all kind of dogs the protection they need, regardless of gender or type of surgery, we designed the Medical Pet Shirt® with a closed rear end. In order to be able to walk your dog or to check the wound, you can use the super easy hold-up system!
You can use the blind buttonhole between the shoulders if you want to insert an IV line that the dog should not be able to reach. Open the buttonhole by cutting it in the middle of the seam. The extra stitching around the buttonhole helps to prevent tearing.
A soft, elastic protective collar around the front and hind legs and around the tail ensures that the MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® does not rub and cut into the legs and tail of the dog, but that the dog can move and heal in complete freedom. However, it is important to make sure that the dog is fitted with the right size, and to make sure that the shirt is not too tight.
For dogs where the surgical area and/or dermatological problem runs between the shoulder blades towards the neck, this area needs to be protected as well. Therefore, the MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® is equipped with a longer, soft, elastic neck protective collar.
There are loops on the inside of the shirt. The dog’s collar can be pulled through these loops. That makes it is even more difficult for the dog to squeeze out of the MPS-Medical Pet Shirt®.
In many cases, the surgical area for the male is very close to the urination area. The shirt is completely closed (regardless of gender) to ensure that the entire torso of every physique is protected. In order to be able to walk the dog or check the surgical area, Medical Pet Shirts has developed a hold-up system. The shirt can be rolled up inside and secured to the chest with a press stud. For the best protection, the shirt must always be closed again after a check or a walk outside.
The interior of the MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® is light blue so fluid loss can be checked by the veterinarian or owner. In the event of fluid loss, a sanitary towel can be applied on the inside of the shirt or between the double layer. If necessary, an ice pack can also be inserted between the double layer.
It is difficult for the dog to open the MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® itself because the closure is on the back. However, it is quick, safe and easy for the owner or veterinarian to put on and off the shirt. We advise to close all snaps/poppers to keep the shirt perfectly in place.
There’s also a single orange colored snap, so you can quickly see that this is an original Dutch Medical Pet Shirts product!
The MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® is made from high-quality cotton and a four-way stretch Invista Lycra® fabric that is lightweight, breathable and comfortable like a second skin. This offers maximum freedom of movement and can help to keep the dog warm after surgery. The patented Dutch design, years of experience and continued development means the shirt is fully perfected and adapted to the dog’s anatomy.
At the belly part, there is some extra space to improve air circulation for a faster recovery.
The MPS® logo is always on the right side of the MPS-Medical Pet Shirt® level with the shoulder. The washing label also has an MPS hologram. Without the yellow logo and the hologram, it is not an original, official product of Medical Pet Shirts.
