The Lick Sleeve came really quickly and it fits very well. My yellow lab doesn't mind it at all. She is having surgery on March 24th so I wanted to start putting the lick sleeve on her every day to get her used to it. She is doing very well and doesn't pull on it or bite at it. I just could not see her adjusting to the "cone of shame". Thanks so much, Susan

For over two months, I could not get my Great Dane to stop licking the inner upper portion of her thigh where she had three sores which were becoming worse and worse. Vet visits, medicine and attempts with various kinds of cones and cone substitutes did not work since she would freak out wearing anything. The lick sleeve was a wonderful solution! After 5 days they were completely healed over and I am forever grateful for this product! Thank you!!!

This product has relieved me of the stress that the "cone" causes for my dog and myself. He sniffs at it once in a while, but so far has not tried to lick or remove it ! Yay ! Fingers crossed that this continues :)

The large is perfect for chloe - it looks really comfortable and she can't get to her injury - so glad i reached out!

Our dog had TPLO surgery in November and I searched everywhere for an alternative to the cone of shame. Finally I found the lick sleeve and I am so thankful. It worked very well for our doggy. He was in lots of pain after the surgery but this gave me peace of mind that he wouldn’t be licking the stitches if I had to leave him alone for a moment or couldn’t actively watch him all night long. He is recovering very well and had no issues with his stitches or wound healing. The price is definitely high relative to the cone and I wish it would have been a little easier to find - I did some serious internet research. Overall, a quality product that was easy to use, worked exactly as described and helped our dog heal well.

Our GSP is very high energy and wearing a cone of any kind was making her crazy. And she is not one that will get used to wearing one. Your sleeve was a godsend. Not to mention how it allowed for use of an absorbent pad when the vet had to place a drain tube in. You can never secure pads to the leg no matter how hard you try. But it adhered perfectly to the inside of the sleeve. Love your product!

This totally saved my lab who had a very extensive knee surgery with two tears. Surgery went well however she was throwing up for three days post surgery. The morning I got up and saw my poor baby sitting up with the horrible cone on and just covered in throw up. Those cones are the worst thing ever. Your company should canvas orthopedic surgeons because this make a world of difference for my pet and us. The stress level she felt and we felt with that cone was just horrible. The moment I put this on her she totally relaxed even though she was in pain. Thank you so much

I purchased this for my 6 year old Labrador who underwent ACL surgery. She is a very anxious dog and I knew that a cone would be very hard for her. The Lick Sleeve has been awesome! We put it on at bedtime and she had not bothered her sutures at all. She nearly too fat, but we're able to get the xlg fastened:)

Great item! We have a 4 year old male newfoundland who just had CCL surgery and this is a lifesaver. Recommendation for the XL size...add more "stretch" to the very bottom near the paw and a little more "give" in the waistband. Doesn't go around twice for a Giant breed but easily adapted the belly wrap to work. Definitely recommend!

We tried a cheaper one and PJ pants. This by far is the better route to go. It may seem expensive but it is great quality and more functional than the other items I have tried. I highly recommend.

I used the sizing chart and ordered a lrg based on our dogs waist, leg size and weight (she's a black lab), it was a little to big and baggy with the leg dressing over the stitches. Overall, the product did what it was intended to do. She did figure out how to escape from it a few times and the strap will slide over the back end ,so you have to keep up on adjusting and re-tightening. This is still a better option than the oversized cone of shame that my vet wanted her to wear for 10 to 14 days for her 1 inch stitches healed... I would recommend this product to a friend..

The Lick Sleeve was a life-saver. Our dog could not handle the cone (even a soft cone..) after her ACL surgery and everyone in the house was losing sleep. Once we started using the Lick Sleeve we could all rest easy knowing she was unable to tamper with her stitches. It was super easy to slip on and I was able to adjust the strap perfectly where she could not pull the sleeve down in any way.

The product was very helpful and customer service was great!

We have been trying to cover a hot spot on his foot for months and he would chew off the dressing and aggravate the wound every day. Also, he can reach his foot with a halo collar on too. It has been two glorious days of no obsessive licking and he is not destroying the sleeve! No licking! Fits the length of his long leg, no adjustments needed. We got an XL and he is 100 lbs.

I am thrilled with the Lick Sleeve! It made recovery so much less stressful for both me and my dog! It was especially helpful overnight. I was worried that Rhubarb would somehow wriggle out of it but nope! Night after night it remained perfectly in place and I could sleep well knowing that she would not bother her incision. I am so glad I found this product. I have recommended it to Rhubarb's veterinary team, and to clients and colleagues.

GREAT PRODUCT!! The large fits my 80lb Rottweiler perfectly. Thanks

This Lick Sleeve was a God send! Our yellow lab had to have TPLO surgery and was given a cone from the vet. After talking with a friend who worked at another vet clinic, I found out about the Lick Sleeve. We gave it a try because the cone was a serious hazard for everyone involved, we have several leg bruises and wall dings as a result. This product has worked so well and was a huge help in the recovery period. It is easy to put on and take off. The material is very soft and comfortable and does not rub on the incision area. I originally had ordered the wrong size. I had contacted Lick Sleeve, and within 5 minutes, I was able to connect with someone and they had my problem resolved by sending me a return label for the one that was too small and setting up a larger size to be shipped out. The larger size was here within 48 hours. This is such an excellent product/company and the customer service is some of the best I have ever had. I will definitely be spreading the Lick Sleeve word and recommending it to anyone and everyone I come across! Thank you, Lick Sleeve!!

Our Pit Bull is very sensitive and refused to do anything with the "Cone of Shame" on. We started a 24 hour watch with her so she could have the cone off - it soon became exhausting.
I'm so grateful a friend of ours found a review of your Lick Sleeve and shared it with us. It was delivered within a couple of days and is such a relief.
We have had to make only one modification because she can push it off her back if left unsupervised so we have an extra strap running from her harness to the strap. No sliding out now!
Love it and feel happy that we have a solution for her next ACL op in a couple of weeks. Worth every penny.
I am very confident she cannot chew through it. She gives is a good lick but not a sign of any damage to the sleeve or her surgery.

This has been a life saver for my dog after TPLO surgery! She freaks out with a cone and this has worked fantastic during her recovery. Cannot recommend it enough. Easy to put on and easy for my pet to move around and sleep comfortably.
Sheila P.
This has been a true lifesaver. It gives me piece of mind that she is not going to get at her stitches.

Surgery is two weeks away and this is so much better than a cone.
Had to cut the medium down to size a little for our mini poodle.

The Lick Sleeve was a great choice for our Rottweiler Honey. We purchased it before she had CCL surgery. We are in week 1 and she does lick. We also noticed after her licking the sleeve is wet on the inside where it's touching the incision. I've been unstrapping the sleeve and allowing it to dry before I snap it back in. My suggestion is to improve the sleeve by adding a layer of shield so that the inside of the sleeve by the incision is not wet. All in all I'm very happy we purchased the sleeve.

The lick sleeve was a blessing! I was so upset looking at my poor girl with that awful plastic cone around her head. She couldn’t even turn around in the crate. The lick sleeve was comfortable and efficient. So happy I found this. Even after her stitches were removed she continued to gnaw at the area. So I just put it back on for another week and let the healing continue. Thanks lick sleeve!

The lick sleeve has been a life saver for our dog after having surgery on his leg. Even with two cones on he was able to get to his stitches. The lick sleeve added another layer of protection so his wound could heal.

Serenity Grace had TPLO surgery one week ago - her second, but our fourth as Rottweiler parents. One of our fears the first two weeks is the dog licking the incision resulting in an infection, or worse removing the stitches. Unable to watch her 24x7, the Lick Sleeve worked to provide peace of mind and effectively negate our fear. She’s never bothered the Lick Sleeve, though it did slip off a couple times over the tail, so my caution would be to frequently check the strap around the body to insure that it is riding where it should be. We wish we had it for the previous TPLO experiences.

I called on a Sunday . I was stressed and the guy I spoke to was great. He made sure I got my sleeve when I needed it and answered my questions.
Laura H.
The best purchase I made around prepping for my dogs CCL surgery! He was in a panic with the Comfy Cone and this is the only thing that stopped him from chewing and licking on his stitches! Amazing product! Washes up well and durable!
Wynona H.
Works great! Has kept our dog out of a cone and has made this ACL surgery recovery better than the last one. So happy we bought this!!!!
Chris K.
I absolutely love the Lick Sleeve. Our dog no longer has to deal with the discomfort caused by the Cone of Shame and is able to heal much faster. Love it!
