I love the Lick Sleeve surgical suit and leg sleeve for Wynchester’s recovery! The suit fits him comfortably and gives me peace of mind, while the leg sleeve adds protection for his healing leg. He looks so much more relaxed in them. 🐾❤️

Works better than anything else we tried.
Our 2year old Golden had TTA surgery Sept 15. The Lick Sleeve has been amazing - no need to use the Cone, which she hates. She (Honey) has not attempted to lick her incision at all. Thank you! Charmagne & Tim
The product is as expected and true to size, per the measurement chart.
Amazing product and amazing company. I bought a size too small and my pup was going in for surgery the next day. I called Lick Sleeve and they fast shipped a larger size to me, told me to re try both after our pup came out of surgery before we decide which one to return. Amazing customer service. The product has been a lifesaver to keep us off a cone for 2 weeks. Seems incredibly comfortable- stays put overnight.
These work great for post-operative surgical care!
Works great! Easy to put on & take off my 70lb Goldendoidle.
This is our second lick sleeve, and we love it. It has helped so much with keep Axel from licking his hind leg. The only reason we needed a second one was so that I could have a fresh one while cleaning the other. A year of use and still as good as new.
Our dog had CCL surgery. She would have definitely licked at her sutures. We bought two Lick Sleeves as she lacked bladder control following the surgery. Yes, they are expensive. However, they work well and I didn't find anything else on the market that I thought would really work.
It was wonderful for Doolin not to have to wear a cone for his TPLO surgery recovery.
Our blue heeler, Bosco, had to have TPLO surgery & this was a life saver. We started with just the right leg sleeve, but he wiggled out of it.We had to add a donut on his neck till his new lick sleeve jumpsuit arrived. Should’ve went with a L instead of XL. Measure twice! We cut the front legs too quickly, so I couldn’t return it. We just rolled up his sleeves! Washes up great. Worth every penny 🐾
this is great,
Worked fantastic. Recommend it to any dog owner who's dog had hind leg surgery. So stress free for your pup and you. Forget about the cone of shame.
Easy to take off and on
I ordered the Lick Sleeve for my 92 lb goldendoodle who had to have TPLO surgery. The sleeve has been so helpful in keeping her incision protected from the outside elements as well as her licking or irritating it. It fits well and is easy to take on and off so that we can keep an eye on her incision as it heals and my pup does not seem bothered by it in any way, thankfully.
Fits my 17 lb Cavalier King Charles perfectly.
My crazy boxer girl had TPLO surgery. She went home with a cone that prevented her from licking the area. However, we have a second dog and the wild card I didn’t quite think about. How was I going to prevent my other dog from licking the surgical site?? The lick sleeve was a great solution. It’s a little pricey for a piece of fabric with clips but way less than the cost of a surgical revision if she got infected.
Does the trick. Easy to wash. Soft material. My dog likes to wear it.
The leg sleeve was an absolute lifesaver after our Black Lab’s cruciate surgery. She is truly a licker and even though we had the cone on her at night, this gave us such peace of mind to know she was doubly protected During the day, we did not keep the cone on our dog, and even though she was in our sight, there were times that she went to lick her leg and this was a wonderful barrier It fit well and was very comfortable for her
I was promised 2 day delivery but it was ground. Therefore, it was late so I had 2 days without the sleeve after my dog's surgery.
Perfect solution for my pup who had surgery and was a master at removing his own staples! My vet loved it so much they are looking into carrying it at their practice. It’s not full-proof and will slip off occasionally but it got us through the 1st 2 weeks after surgery and things were miserable before we received the sleeve.
My dog Ginger loves it! She hates wearing the "cone of shame". Recovering from knee surgery, she had to be confined to a small space and while wearing the cone she couldn't rest very well and was very restless. She's much more comfortable now and sleeps much better.
The Lick Sleeve was very helpful for our dog Zola after surgery on her leg. It kept the incision clean. Most importantly, she did not bother the incision!
Perfect at preventing my amstaff mix from licking at the incision from a TPLO surgery
Our Surgery department loves these for our orthopedic patients
My Golden had TPLO surgery. It is so much more comfortable for him than the cone. Thankfully he's not a chewer though. I have to take it off when he needs to go outside but when he comes back in he actually lifts his foot so I can put it back on! So glad I decided to buy it.
My dog had CCL surgery. He could lick his surgical site in spite of a cone. The licky sleeve saved us. He’s so much more comfortable, he’s able to eat and sleep better, and he leaves the incision alone. I was worried about putting something occlusive over a new incision, but this has enough air circulation in it, that his incision has healed really nicely. I used the recommended size and it fit very well. Couldn’t be happier.
Its been so helpful. She has been very comfortable in it. Very glad we got this one for her👍
This is a godsend! My dog had TPLO surgery. By day 2, she started licking the incision. We put the sleeve on her right away, and it's been a miracle. She has not tried to lick it at all since. She has not needed to wear the cone with the sleeve on! Do yourself and your pup a favor and invest in this.
This was a much better experience than using a cone. My dog hates using a cone; she keeps banging into walls and doors. This was a great solution after her surgery. It is easier to put on. It prevented her from getting at her incision. She was much happier wearing it instead of the cone. Great purchase!
Sleeve worked great for my dog who recently had knee surgery.
It’s the one thing that actually worked
After tplo surgery the surgeon recommended the lick sleeve and it is a lifesaver. The cone is awful and made our baby miserable; lick sleeve is a must have instead!
I ordered a XL single leg lick sleeve first. It did the job but was too small in the thigh area. Franky has a large/broad muscular thighs. I saw the bilateral suit and wanted to give it a try. So I ordered XXL and it fit perfectly. This suit was a complete game changer. We went from a depressed dog (when he was wearing cone). To a happy free moving boy. Covered his incision from TPLO surgery and was not one bit irritated. This is an amazing product and I have suggested to many of my dog friends and my veterinary clinic. I have no idea why you would spend money on a cone when it makes everyone miserable when there is a PERFECT solution. Buy the bilateral suit and all your problems and worries will be resolved. In fact I will be returning the single leg lick sleeve and ordering another bilateral suit so I can have an extra one on hand. 1000% SATISFIED!!!!!
We have used the Lick Sleeve for my Newfies recovery from TPLO surgery. It worked so great we did not need to use a Cone.
The lick sleeve fit just as described. Very easy to use. My dog is very comfortable with it and we are so happy she didn't have to wear the cone of shame after her tplo surgery
She doesn’t look happy with her Lick Sleeve, but it is doing its job! Stella has tried a few times to lick at her leg, I’m so happy for the Lick Sleeve that she was not able to get to her incision.
My Boxer had knee surgery on Monday and we started using the lick sleeve yesterday. He is actually proud of it and it does the job it was designed to do. We were cautioned about how important it was to keep him from licking the incision and in the past nothing had stopped him. The sleeve is going to make his recovery so much easier!!!! My only wish is that I didn't have to take it off for bathroom breaks.
Our beloved lab required surgery, and it was an enormous relief to have an alternative to that dreadful collar typically used to prevent dogs from interfering with the incision while it heals. It was initially a bit like putting tights on a dog -when getting the sleeve over her paw!- but once over the paw the lick sleeve fit nicely over her leg and stayed put with the strap around her middle, which she didn't mind. I appreciated that the respective sides were marked "left" and "right." Whoever invented the lick sleeve is a genius and the entire dog owning community owes them respect and gratitude!
It has worked very well for our dog to keep him from licking his stitches. In addition, it appears comfortable for him, he doesn’t mind wearing it at all.
