The Balto No-Lick Neck Brace for Dogs

The Balto No-Lick Neck Brace for dogs was designed as an alternative to the classic Elizabethan collar (cone of shame), it provides extra comfort and utility. This allows the pet to eat, see and behave normally whilst protecting any wounds or stitches. Black in colour. This brace is designed to prevent licking, if the animal is suffering from more serious neck problems, please see the Orthopaedic Neck Brace which will offer support for neck injuries and weakness.
Uses:
  • Protects wounds or stitches after surgery
  • Obsessive-compulsive behaviours
  • Prevents dogs licking/biting areas of the chest, abdomen, flanks and makes it difficult to access front legs, elbow and perianal areas
  • Can be used on cats after spaying/neutering
Features:
  • Made of black, padded and breathable material
  • Rigid fabric inside to prevent the pet turning it's head to reach any wounds
  • Easy to put on
  • Less restrictive than the cone, pets can still eat, drink and see normally
  • Hand washable
  • Can be worn before and after surgery
Recommendations for use:
  • Not suited for hounds or bulldogs. Long hound necks don't allow the collar to stay in place, short thick Bulldog necks won't allow for a proper fit
  • Collar should be securely tightened around the neck to keep it from turning
  • A harness is advised to walk a dog whilst wearing the neck brace
  • Over a 24 hr period, the brace should be removed for 1-2 hrs
  • Not recommended for cases of surgery to the front paw
Sizes:
Measure the neck circumference. These braces are adjustable.

My Lhaso Apso has a wound on his back passage. Will this stop him from being able to reach it? Also what size will he need?

ZOOMADOG replied:
The Balto Neck Brace is a rigid brace that holds the neck steady making it difficult for your Llahso Apso from reaching the flank area so it him from reaching the wound. This is as an alternative to the Elizabethan collar. To get the right size check the length of your dog’s neck to find the appropriate size. The brace length is given in the size guide.
